• Arnold Beevers 1908 - 2001 info
  One of the two originators of the Beevers-Lipson strips, which enabled Fourier calculations to be made as part of structure solutions in the days before computers were available. Carried out many early structure determinations. Latterly set up Beevers Miniature Model Unit, which now exports molecular models throughout the world, and provides useful work for the disabled in the Edinburgh area.
