The Ripple Effect is a devotional study of one of the best-loved psalms of David. Breaking the psalm down into sections, or chapters, the author examines the verses and expounds on their meanings and effects. He includes, too, some of his own writings connected with the psalm.Robert Simpson began to serve God at a tender age. From a Christian bookshop worker in New Zealand to a literature ministry in the wilds of Papua New Guinea, to working with a publisher of legal books in London, and later becoming an ordained minister in Australia with his own parish, he absorbed and shared God's Word. After suffering a deep clinical depression, and electro-convulsive treatment, followed by a severe stroke, he learned again to trust, to speak, read, and write. This gave him plenty of time to reflect further on the Bible, and The Ripple Effect flows from all of this, a vivid and inspirational insight into both the man and the minister.

These poems began fifty-one years ago when the author began to capture his feelings and life's events. About thirty years ago he stopped writing and put them aside to pursue his career.Originally everything was handwritten - often on scraps of paper stuffed into envelopes, book jackets, photo albums or some other convenient storage hole. Every so often, the browning paper and fading ink were revisited. Surprisingly, the scraps managed to survive despite the passage of time. Occasionally, a new poem was added to the collection or an old poem was revised. Bob thought it was inconceivable that anyone else would have the slightest interest in his feelings; so, each time, back into storage the poetry went. With each return to their cubbyholes the poems managed to survive no matter how many times they were dragged around the world.Time became a concern as friends and family made their final eternal trips. With each funeral, each flower spray and each sympathy card, mortality became a reality and the need to organize and type the handwritten scraps became a priority. When Bob became ill and his injuries caught up with him and the surgeries multiplied, his mind returned to his words. It was time to see if anyone else could relate to the chronicling of so many feelings, events, disappointments, remembrances, loves and lost opportunities.

For centuries the people of Kalimna Heights, a suburb of Sydney, have lived through joys and successes, grandiose achievements, and bitter disappointments - and tragedy stalks the inhabitants just as surely as does healing, forgiveness, and love.With a stone-rendered church at its heart, the daily lives of its solicitors, book distributors, academia, families and friends are traced from the 1800s to the present day. Marriages and break-ups, dementia, crime, violence, and sudden death sprinkle a background of romance and of solidarity. as one incumbent minister after another follows through the years.Mystery and mayhem, intrigue and emotion, laughter and pain, take us on a rollercoaster ride that thrills and shocks, and will leave you thinking about it long after the book's end.

Dr Robert Simpson, one of Britain's finest composers and for nearly thirty years a BBC music producer, scrutinises the methods by which the BBC plans the annual Promenade Concerts. Basing his argument on long experience inside theBBC, Dr Simpson argues the only logical way to give the Proms the flair that a single imagination can provide - without those otherwise inevitable long-term imbalances - is to limit the tenure of the Controller to four or five years. Dr Simpson further examines the artistic gains and financial savings to be made from more extensive use of the BBC's own orchestra. He suggests that not only would this measure produce a saving of a staggering 62% of costs; it would also give the Controller almost total control of the repertoire. This would enable the Proms to become more adventurous than ever before, and a true realisation of Sir Henry Wood's original vision. A musician andwriter of scholarly books on Nielsen, Bruckner and Beethoven, for 30 years ROBERT SIMPSON was also a Music Producer with the BBC.
