Edmund Wright graduated from Oxford University in 1985 with a
doctorate in history and entered publishing as a reference-book
editor. Since 2004 he has been a self-employed contractor. Work has
included updating the content of OUP's Dictionary of World History
(2nd edition 2006 and 3rd edition 2014) and Dictionary of Computing
(6th edition 2008); proofreading work on the Shorter Oxford English
Dictionary (6th edition 2007) and the
Historical Thesaurus of the Oxford English Dictionary (2009).
In these days, when a quick search on the web brings up much of
this information, there is still room for a reference book,
especially one as inexpensive as this, to provide corroboration
and, sometimes, correction of unauthenticated postings.
