Book excerpt: The publication of this book is a celebration of the achievements of all the National University of Ireland's 'travelling students'. Collectively the Studentship winners constitute a remarkable testament to the importance of the Travelling Studentship Scheme and to their own achievements. The contributions in A Century of Scholarship reveal a fascinating diversity, through the broad spectrum of disciplines and descriptions of venues around the world, but especially Great Britain, continental Europe, United States and Canada. It also provides personal views of life after the Studentship - the illustrious careers, the returns to Ireland, and the learned 'diaspora' in universities, hospitals and financial institutions overseas. The book highlights the federal dimension of the National University of Ireland in that the body of travelling students represents the four Constituent Universities at Dublin, Cork, Galway and Maynooth. In their outstanding achievements, both academic and professional, the travelling students are worthy ambassadors of the National University of Ireland. A Century of Scholarship will be a source of pride for anyone who has won a Travelling Studentship or Prize; for others it will provide a glimpse into the lives and accomplishments of the recipients, and a valuable and permanent historical record of the National University of Ireland's longest-running award scheme.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This engaging and provocative work consists of 29 chapters and discusses over 50 books that have been instrumental in the development of Irish social and political thought since the early seventeenth century. Steering clear of traditionally canonical Irish literature, Bryan Fanning and Tom Garvin debate the significance of their chosen texts and explore the impact, reception, controversy, debates and arguments that followed publication. Fanning and Garvin present these seminal books in an impelling dialogue with one another, highlighting the manner in which individual writers informed each other s opinions at the same time as they were being amassed within the public consciousness. From Jonathan Swift s savage indignation to Flann O'Brien s disintegrative satire, this book provides a fascinating discussion of how key Irish writers affected the life of their country by upholding or tearing down those matters held close to the heart, identity and habits of the Irish nation.

Download or read book Medical Law in Ireland written by Deirdre Madden and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2017-06-22 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this convenient volume provides comprehensive analysis of the law affecting the physician-patient relationship in Ireland. Cutting across the traditional compartments with which lawyers are familiar, medical law is concerned with issues arising from this relationship, and not with the many wider juridical relations involved in the broader field of health care law. After a general introduction, the book systematically describes law related to the medical profession, proceeding from training, licensing, and other aspects of access to the profession, through disciplinary and professional liability and medical ethics considerations and quality assurance, to such aspects of the physician-patient relationship as rights and duties of physicians and patients, consent, privacy, and access to medical records. Also covered are specific issues such as organ transplants, human medical research, abortion, and euthanasia, as well as matters dealing with the physician in relation to other health care providers, health care insurance, and the health care system. Succinct and practical, this book will prove to be of great value to professional organizations of physicians, nurses, hospitals, and relevant government agencies. Lawyers representing parties with interests in Ireland will welcome this very useful guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its comparative value as a contribution to the study of medical law in the international context.

Download or read book Church state and social science in Ireland written by Peter Murray and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2016-11-18 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The immense power the Catholic Church once wielded in Ireland has considerably diminished over the last fifty years. During the same period the Irish state has pursued new economic and social development goals by wooing foreign investors and throwing the state's lot in with an ever-widening European integration project. How a less powerful church and a more assertive state related to one another during the key third quarter of the twentieth century is the subject of this book. Drawing on newly available material, it looks at how social science, which had been a church monopoly, was taken over and bent to new purposes by politicians and civil servants. This case study casts new light on wider processes of change, and the story features a strong and somewhat surprising cast of characters ranging from Sean Lemass and T.K. Whitaker to Archbishop John Charles McQuaid and Father Denis Fahey.
