Reference excerpt

Terence Henderson Lee OAM (born 31 August 1940) is a former cricketer who played first-class cricket for New South Wales from 1962 to 1967. He later became prominent in research and development in the Australian wine industry, work for which he was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia in 2007.

Cricket career An all-rounder who batted in the middle order and bowled off-spin, Lee played several matches for New South Wales Colts between 1959–60 and 1962–63. Against Victoria Colts in 1962–63 he scored 137 out of a New South Wales Colts total of 292. He made his first-class debut for New South Wales a few weeks later. He played as the professional for East Lancashire in the Lancashire League in 1963. East Lancashire won the championship, Lee scoring 701 runs (more runs than any other professional in the league) at an average of 43.81 and taking 59 wickets at 14.06. Lee played most of the 1963–64 season in the New South Wales team, scoring 253 runs at 25.30 and taking 14 wickets at 45.07. At one stage he was considered a possibility to be selected in the Australian team to tour England in 1964. He played for an Australian XI against the touring South Africans in Melbourne, but with little success. A week later, for New South Wales against the South Africans, he top scored with 68 in the New South Wales second innings total of 147. He returned to the Lancashire League in 1964. East Lancashire finished third, Lee scoring 833 runs at 39.66 and taking 63 wickets at 11.53. Lee was less successful in 1964–65 and 1965–66 and played irregularly for New South Wales. He returned to better form in 1966–67, finishing the season with 254 runs at 23.09 and 15 wickets at 23.60. In a low-scoring match against Queensland in mid-season he scored 45 and 8 not out and took 2 for 26 and 4 for 19. In the next match a week later, he and John Gleeson bowled South Australia out for 87, Lee taking 4 for 28. He played the first three matches of the 1967–68 Sheffield Shield season but without success.

Wine career Lee holds a BSc and PhD in Food Technology from the University of New South Wales. He retired in 2004 from the positions of Vice President and Chief Scientific Officer of E & J Gallo Winery in Modesto, California. Before joining Gallo, he was the Director of the Australian Wine Research Institute in Adelaide for 14 years. He was president of the Australian Society of Viticulture and Oenology from 1986 to 1988. He was awarded a Centenary Medal in 2001. In 2007 he was made a Patron of the Australian wine industry and was awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia in the Queen’s Birthday Honours, for "service to viticulture and to the wine industry through research and development organisations, wine industry bodies and government advisory roles in Australia and overseas, and through tertiary education in the fields of viticulture and oenology". Lee has been editor of the Australian Journal of Grape and Wine Research since 2012.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Terry Lee (cricketer)

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Terry Lee (cricketer) claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In astronomy, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Terry Lee (cricketer) before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Terry Lee (cricketer) ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Terry Lee (cricketer)

In research: Terry Lee (cricketer) appears in astronomy research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Terry Lee (cricketer) in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Terry Lee (cricketer) is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1940 births, 20th-century Australian sportsmen, Australian cricketers, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Terry Lee (cricketer) outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
