Abstract
C.O. Stanley, the head of Pye, was one of the prime movers behind the birth of commercial television in the UK. Drawing on material from his new biography the author reveals the remarkable story of how one of the great mavericks of the British electronics industry helped free television from the monopolistic paternalism of the BBC
