"Sinopsis" puede pertenecer a otra edición de este libro.
George Papadopoulos lives an extraordinary life. A much traveled man, he notched up millions of air miles before the phrase was even coined. As a consultant engineer he was a maritime troubleshooter, flying around the globe to shipping disasters. Today he can design your web page. George has experienced many roles: entrepreneur, linguist, yachtsman, scuba diver, naturalist, prisoner, rich man, poor man, philosopher and now author. Born in 1926 of Greek Cypriot immigrants into the multi-racial, multi-cultural society that was Alexandria, Egypt, George attended the Greek, French and English local schools. During the last part of the war, at the age of eighteen years, he joined the Royal Navy and was transferred to Haifa, Palestine for training. Post war he served ten years in the Merchant Navy, working his way up to Chief Engineer. Going 'ashore 'in the fifties, he started his own shipping business that soon saw boom ¿but then bust with the oil crisis of 1973 -74. In How to Survive on 24 Hours a Day, George takes moments from his life and puts them under the microscope. The result is a book rich in emotion and thought, and like life, full of laughter and tears. On reflection the author quotes, Socrates: 'An unexamined life is not worth living '. George survives his wife Sarah and has four children and seven grandchildren. He has lived in England for fifty years.
