| 545 | |a Bernard Liengme is a Retired Professor of Chemistry and Lecturer in Information Systems of St. Francis Xavier University in Nova Scotia, Canada where he taught for over 36 years. He is the author: A Guide to Microsoft Excel for Business and Management (2 editions), and A Guide to Microsoft Excel for Scientists and Engineers (6 editions). The later has been adopted by various engineering schools worldwide. Both books have been translated into a number of languages. Bernard has been awarded the Microsoft Most Valued Professional award in Excel in each of the last eight years. | ||
