D.A.A.S.: Their Part in My Downfall
'There is ... a ruthless tenderness about the Doug Anthony All Stars that makes them more scathingly funny than ever.' Libbi Gorr Paul observes, 'You are looking at us, ladies and gentlemen, and thinking, 'Oh my god, Tripod have been in a terrible accident.'' Under the guise of his alter ego Flacco, Paul Livingston once basked in the reflected glory of Tim Ferguson, Paul McDermott and Richard Fidler, and their anarchic comedy incarnation, the Doug Anthony All-Stars. At their peak D.A.A.S. teetered on international greatness, and Paul teetered with them, until that teeter was abruptly toppled in 1994. Flacco and Paul now find themselves wrenched out of comfortable but obscure retirement to tr...
Criminal Law
This work is a revised and expanded update to Criminal Law Cases and Materials (1992). All the relevant statues, case law and commentaries from academic authors have been retained. The re-written text of the previous edition encompasses both a thorough overview of criminal law and a practical guide to the application of those principles in the context of individual offences. The final chapter of the former work was found by practitioners to be of particular relevance. It consists of a set of sample charges covering the vast bulk of Irish criminal law with annotations from statutory materials.
They F*** You Up
Do your relationships tend to follow the same destructive pattern? Do you feel trapped by your family's expectations of you? Does your life seem overwhelmingly governed by jealousy or competitiveness or lack of confidence? In this ground-breaking book, clinical psychologist Oliver James shows that it is the way we were cared for in the first six years of life that has a crucial effect on who we are and how we behave. Nurture, in effect, shapes our very nature. James combines the latest scientific research with fascinating interviews to show that understanding your past is the first step to controlling your present.
From the Ground Up
Viola MacMillan was a mining dynamo, a legend in the testosterone-driven, wheeling-dealing venture that is Canadian mining. In this rags-to-riches autobiography, MacMillan offers a passionate account of her life in the bush, her rise to fame, and the setbacks she endured along the way. To put the story in context, Virginia Heffernan provides a snapshot of the Canadian mining industry during MacMillan’s heyday, including the events that led to her jail sentence and eventual pardon.
Disavowing Asylum
Disavowing Asylum presents the for-profit Direct Provision asylum regime in the Republic of Ireland, describing and theorizing the remote asylum centres throughout the country as a disavowed regime of racialized incarceration, operated by private companies and hidden from public view. The authors combine a historical and geographical analysis of Direct Provision with a theoretical analysis of the disavowal of the system by state and society and with a visual autoethnography via one of the authors’ Asylum Archive and Direct Provision diary, constituting a first-person narrative of the experience of living in Direct Provision. This book argues that asylum seekers, far from being mere victims of racialization and of their experiences in Direct Provision, are active agents of change and resistance, and theorizes the Asylum Archive project as an archive of silenced lives that brings into public view the hidden experiences of asylum seekers in Ireland's Direct Provision regime.
The Fearnley Dynasty
For some unknown reason, as I get older, my past and heritage is more often on my mind. Who was my Great Grandfather Fearnley? What was it like for my Grandfather Fearnley serving in the First World War? What and who makes up the genes and blood that pass through my family's veins? I have not attempted to make this book a record of my life. It is more an attempt to record those people, moments; experiences and places that I believe have influenced me into becoming what I am. For the most part I have made a cut off period at about 2000, for I believe that by then, I had become the man that I am.
