Joe Ridge


It is with sadness that I learnt today of the passing of Joe Ridge. Joe was the publisher of the company Euromed.

Joe had been ill will pancreatic cancer. He was a kind and helpful man, and a publisher of an interesting range of books and journals.

Euromed produce a number of periodicals, including The GMP Review, Clean Air and Containment Review (which of great value to the cleanroom community), Industrial Pharmacy Journal and the vital European Journal of Parenteral & Pharmaceutical Sciences, which as covered a lot of pharmaceutical microbiology.

I worked with Joe in putting together a recent book, along with Madhu Rahu Saghee, about cleanooms called "Cleanroom Management in Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare". Joe was a great help in putting this large volume together (which runs to 26 chapters across 600 pages).

Joe's vision in relation to pharmaceutical and healthcare publications will be greatly missed.
