Tom O'Connell
It was in late 2015; I was in Naas Hospital on one of my many visits, which were increasingly fearful, and my father, Jim Connell, was preparing me for his upcoming demise. It did not come to pass, however. He went on to have a near-death experience, recover from illness and return to live happily at home in Loraine. Neither of us is overtly religious, so I wondered where he had got his strength and belief from. I decided to try and find out. These stories, recounted over many interviews and with several people, were an unexpected bonus. €3 from each book sale goes to the Jack and Jill Children’s Foundation. -

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. -

In the second half of the 20th century Máirín De Burca was probably the best know female political and social activist in Ireland. Her career is full of protests, marches, court cases, jail sentences and more, as she fought for social justice and equality for women. Her victory in having the law on all male juries struck down is just one of her many achievements. While in Sinn Féin Máirín fought to move the party to the political left and she was a fearless critic of the Provisional IRA and any use of physical violence for political gain. Máirín De Burca has been a committed political and social campaigner for over 60 years. Her story is told now in this first biography of a remarkable life. This biography was written by Brian Kenny’s previous publications include: Joe Deasy: A Life on the Left, Sam Nolan: A Long March on the Left and Tony Heffernan: From Merrion Square to Merrion Street. -
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.
