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. -

Ireland prides itself on the achievements and influence of its people through the ages, and white many Irish figures in the arts (playwrights, artists) are well known, we have been less adept at hailing our scientific pioneers. The purpose of this book is to redress this balance somewhat by revealing an as yet untold story of Irish influence. This volume contains biographies of fifteen significant figures in the global history of neuroscience who spearheaded important developments in brain science. -

Ger O’Brien Without Florence Nightingales Irish influences, nursing today, would never had become a global trained profession. Life itself is a miracle and great daily privilege as a nurse, to do for clients, what they cannot do for themselves, with utmost kindness and patience.

Knowledge not money, exclusively, protects in old age.
