    Jamie Inglis is a poet and doctor from Edinburgh.

    fractals & mnemonics is his second collection of poetry and was first published in 1996.

    Poems about travelling near and far, of times, places
    and who we are. Poems about the unexpected and
    unexplained and about wars fought in our name.
    Poems of new words embedded in the web.

    His poems reflect his interests in people, pacifism,

    and the world we are creating.
