I hope it's appropriate to share that earlier this week, Professor Ronnie Cann, one of my PhD supervisors, died suddenly. I’d like to remember him publicly; he was brilliant and kind, and I will miss him.

Ronnie joined Edinburgh in 1984, although I knew him only as a beloved professor emeritus. Bad thinking had nowhere to hide in supervisions, and he had an uncanny ability to understand (and successfully teach) any theory, while disagreeing with it entirely and developing his own alternative.
