Alastair Aitchison

Alastair Aitchison has over eight years experience as a management information consultant, providing data reporting and analysis for the House of Lords, the Police, and various UK media agencies. While working as a technical manager at Aviva, his principle area of interest was on the geographic analysis of risk patterns and assessing the regional impact of major weather events, and he now works as independent consultant specialising in spatial data analysis.
Based in Norwich, Alastair attempts to balance working from home, being a housedad for his two-year old son, and writing books on SQL Server at the same time. It's normally fairly chaotic.

Alastair is the author of two books on SQL Server, both published by APress:
- Beginning Spatial with SQL Server 2008 (http://www.apress.com/book/view/9781430218296)
- Expert SQL Server 2008 Development (http://www.apress.com/book/view/9781430272137)
