    Rooting for Knowledge was written by Loraine Haugh, a Science teacher from Co. Clare, who teaches Science, Agricultural Science, Biology and Chemistry to Junior Certificate and Leaving Certificate students. Disappointed with the passive learning model of many science textbooks, Loraine was eager to create a more engaging educational book for students. The result is Rooting for Knowledge, a textbook that encourages classroom discussions and creates opportunities for scaffolding questions. Loraine follows Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles, so Rooting for Knowledge is accessible and challenging to all learners. There are references to the various cross-cutting themes at the end of each chapter, so students will be able to link these themes to the material on the syllabus.

  • Michael J.Walsh The Divine Connection is really a book of questions. It's about the individual and the society we live in. It's about religious people who espouse the words of the Divine and, yet, they do the opposite. Questions arise about morality and about the existence of God.
  • James Good Of the articles which follow, some few remain in my files because I did not succeed in getting them published. The majority were never submitted for publication, while some few are in a kind of no-man’s-land – sent to a publisher and never even acknowledged. An occasional one may have been printed without my knowing it. All in all, writing articles and seeing them in print is a joyous, fulfilling experience. A writer hopes that his joy at seeing himself in print is somehow shared by his readers. With this double purpose in mind, I have put together this collection of pieces written over the years but – as far as I am aware – never appearing in print.

  • Malcolm Bray Orphaned in Boston, Massachusetts at the age of ten, Danny MacNamara survives a series of hopeless and hazardous adoptions, as well as a long term in a brutal juvenile detention centre. Driven by an obsessive search for his mother’s killer-rapist, the man he blames for all his subsequent misfortunes. Danny becomes battered and scarred by his life-experiences. Growing into a physical giant of a man, he finds himself unable to fit in anywhere for long and through no real fault of his own is hounded by both the authorities and the mob, with murder and mayhem accompanying his every move.
  • Michael Galvin

    “What I am discovering however, is that this desire, this impulse to record my presence, is alive and well in me, and is growing in intensity as the years roll into one other. I feel the Spirit encouraging me ever so positively not alone to give such an undertaking serious consideration but to get on with it.”
    The author is clearly highly attuned to the interplay between the natural environment, its creatures and us humans, and we are provided with appealing pen pictures of people, places, and moments in time, experienced in his beloved  paradise that is the Beara Peninsula. In the latter section of the book, a fascinating dialogue takes place on the question of whether we humans 'are happy' given the wonders and beauty of the universe provided by the Creator for our enjoyment. Each copy of this book is signed by the author.
