Why Is Peter Dunn Influential?

(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Peter Douglas Dunn OBE was a British engineer. After working at the Atomic Energy Research Establishment, Harwell and jointly holding numerous patents on heat pipes and associated technology with power stations, Prof Peter Dunn joined the Department of Applied Physics in 1964 and started the Department of Engineering at the University of Reading in 1968. As head of department, alongside his friend Dr E. F. Schumacher and through the Institute of Mechanical Engineers, Peter Dunn was on the first committees working with Intermediate Technology or Appropriate Technology. These committees led to the formation of the Intermediate Technology Development Group . He encouraged the Departmental research group to contribute to the developing sectors of intermediate technology.
