- James_White_(author) abstract "James White (7 April 1928 – 23 August 1999) was a Northern Irish author of science fiction novellas, short stories and novels. He was born in Belfast and returned there after spending some early years in Canada. After a few years working in the clothing industry, he worked at Short Brothers Ltd., an aircraft company based in Belfast, from 1965 until taking early retirement during 1984 as a result of diabetes. White married Margaret Sarah Martin, another science fiction fan, during 1955 and the couple had three children. He died of a stroke.He became a fan of science fiction during 1941 and co-wrote two fan magazines, from 1948 to 1953 and 1952 to 1965. Encouraged by other fans, White began publishing short stories during 1953, and his first novel was published during 1957. His best-known novels were the twelve of the Sector General series, the first published during 1962 and the last after his death. White also published nine other novels, two of which were nominated for major awards, unsuccessfully.White abhorred violence, and medical and other emergencies were the sources of dramatic tension in his stories. Some critics regarded him as a second-rank writer, who occasionally produced first-rank works, and felt his plots and writing could be formulaic. However, the "Sector General" series is regarded as defining the genre of medical science fiction, and as introducing a memorable crew of aliens. Although missing winning the most prestigious honours four times, White gained other awards for specific works and for contributions to science fiction. He was also Guest-of-Honour of several conventions.".
