Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. 311 pages, xxviii pages of plates : illustrations (some colour), portraits (some colour) ; 26 cm. The history of the College of Optometrists is the definitive account of the foundation of the present College and its development over a period of nearly 20 years, from 1980 to mid 1998. The book covers the College's progress as the public benefit body for optometry, and charts developments in optometric practice itself and the impact of legislation and government policies affecting it. Chapters include the formative years at the College, the deregulation of 1989 and the College Royal Charter. Begun in 1996 by Past President Philip Cole and the late Martin Lynch, the writing of the history represented the College's very own Millennium project. The attractive clothbound edition is well illustrated with photographs of significant events and personalities in optometry throughout the years. With photographs of many Diploma Ceremonies, College Conferences and Lectures, and other College occasions, many of our members may find themselves unexpectedly featured. The History is any easy to read reference tool for all members of the profession and it is hoped that all College members will want their own copy. Seller Inventory # PGTCOO01
