Demonic Foes
The world’s leading psychiatric authority on demonic possession delves into the hidden world of exorcisms and his own transformation from cynic to believer over the course of his twenty-five-year career. Successful New York psychiatrist Richard Gallagher was skeptical yet intrigued when a hard-nosed, no-nonsense Catholic priest asked him to examine a woman for a possible exorcism. Meeting her, Gallagher was astonished. The woman’s behavior defied logic. In an instant, she could pinpoint a person’s secret weaknesses.

Summary of Richard Gallagher, M.D.'s Demonic Foes
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was raised in the suburbs of New York City, and I was instilled with a deep Yankee skepticism towards the idea of a devil or demonic possession. I learned in school an American pride and patriotism, and I was later to reflect that I had an easy dismissal of Old World habits and beliefs. #2 I became fascinated with psychosomatic medicine, the vagaries of our complex immune system, and the enormous power of our brains upon the state of our physiology. I filed away the incident in my mind, and when I returned home, I planned on going to medical school. #3 The case of Loudun, France, in which several Ursuline nuns claimed to be possessed by demons, was a sensation. It remains controversial today. To draw the same simple conclusion as Lhermitte, one would need to discount a good deal of the contemporary records. #4 I became interested in the mysterious psychic phenomena, and I decided to study them scientifically. I was not interested in the hostility I might receive from my colleagues for studying this topic.
Finite Element Analysis

This book presents 20 different chapters in the application of Finite Elements, ranging from Biomedical Engineering to Manufacturing Industry and Industrial Developments. It has been written at a level suitable for use in a graduate course on applications of finite element modelling and analysis (mechanical, civil and biomedical engineering studies, for instance), without excluding its use by researchers or professional engineers interested in the field, seeking to gain a deeper understanding concerning Finite Element Analysis.
Screening Ulster
This book presents extensive research into the cinematic representation of the British-identifying Protestant, unionist and loyalist community in Northern Ireland and is the first time such comprehensive analysis has been produced. Gallagher’s research traces the history of the community’s representation in cinema from the emergence of depictions of both nationalist and unionist communities in social-realist dramas in 1980s British and Irish cinema to today, through periods such as those focused on violent paramilitaries in the 1990s and irreverent comedy after the Northern Ireland peace process. The book addresses the perception that the Irish nationalist community has been depicted more frequently and favourably than unionism in films about the period of conflict known as “The Troubles”. Often argued to be the result of an Irish nationalist bias within Hollywood, Gallagher argues that there are other inherent and systemic reasons for this cinematic deficit.
