Short biography
Geoffrey Budworth - Geoff’s awareness of the significance of knotting characteristics to help in solving crime was developed on the River Thames when he was a Metropolitan Police Inspector. Utilizing this knowledge of knots and also recreational knots used in climbing and sailing, has resulted in several books being written, specifically for the purpose of training and assisting police in forensic work. In 1982 the Metropolitan Police Forensic Science laboratory in London published ‘Identification of Knots’ by Geoffrey Budworth. His work was also written up in the Journal of the Forensic Science Society in 1982. A further book followed in 1985 being ‘Knots and Crime’. A prolific writer of knotting books, Geoff Budworth has subsequently written some of the best books available, relating to practical tying of knots and decorative rope work.

Author Disambiguation

How many authors?

Geoffrey Budworth is currently considered a "single author." If one or more works are by a distinct, homonymous authors, go ahead and split the author.

This entry includes…

Combine with…

What?

Q: What is this feature for/why is it necessary?

A: Because LibraryThing draws from so many different libraries, it can't enforce a single name for a given author. "Also known as" lets LibraryThing users combine author's names easily, so collections match up and everything runs smoothly.

Q: Can I combine with an author not suggested above?

A: Yes you can.

Q: I know an author is separate, but some well-meaning but deplorably uninformed person keeps combining them! Can I take a name off the combination list?

A: Yes you can.

Look up! Everything in the "Combine with..." section now has a link to "never combine." Use this feature wisely. "Marc Twain" may be idiotic, but misspelling should still be combined. "Mark Twain" and "Edward Gibbon" should not.

Q: What authors have already been slated to "never combine" with this author?

A: No authors.

Q: I am said person and I'm right!

A: Take it to the Combiners group.
