Human Rights in Northern Ireland

A state of emergency has existed in Northern Ireland since 1922. Security forces have broad powers to stop and question people, to search their homes, to detain them without charges for as long as sevendays and to exclude them from Northern Ireland or Great Britain. The right to trial by jury has been suspended for offenses related to terrorism. Political violence is a daily occurrence, and death is commonplace; almost 2, 900 people have died in "The Troubles" since 1969.

Who Do You Think You Are?

Self-discovery is essential if we are to live authentic and satisfying lives, and in Who Do You Think You Are? An Introduction to Self-Discovery, Dr. Tony Gough gives us the tools to leave behind the person we have become in order to discover the person we could be. Fundamental to the pursuit of happiness is the question of our personal identity. It is the author’s contention – based on his psychotherapeutic practice of over forty years – that most people not only do not know who they are, but they actually dislike who they think they are. Dr. Gough challenges the assumption that we are fixed, predictable and permanent, that we are all just victims of our genetic make-up, our DNA, our upbringing, our culture, and encourages us to leave our past behind for a more positive future.Who Do You Think You Are? drives to the heart of our individuality and our uniqueness as people, and introduces us to the building blocks of personal identity. Along the way the book guides us into removing the past out of our present and allowing ourselves to emerge into new and vibrant beings.

Anzac Memories

Anzac Memories was first published to acclaim in 1994, and has achieved international renown for its pioneering contribution to the study of war memory and mythology. Michael McKernan wrote that the book gave ‘as good a picture of the impact of the Great War on individuals and Australia as we are likely to get in this generation’, and Michael Roper concluded that ‘an immense achievement of this book is that it so clearly illuminates the historical processes that left men like my grandfather forever struggling to fashion myths which they could live by’. In this new edition Alistair Thomson explores how the Anzac legend has transformed over the past quarter century, how a ‘post-memory’ of the Great War creates new challenges and opportunities for making sense of the national past, and how veterans’ war memories can still challenge and complicate national mythologies. He returns to a family war history that he could not write about twenty years ago because of the stigma of war and mental illness, and he uses newly released Repatriation files to question his own earlier account of veterans’ post-war lives and memories and to think afresh about war and memory.

Queensland Lords

Edward and Eliza Lord came to Moreton Bay in 1844, arriving as the remote convict outpost was opened up for free settlement. Members of Lancashire merchant families, they had invested their inheritances in NSW lands and a Sydney merchant firm, just before the drought and crash of 1841. They moved north to rebuild their fortunes, settling at Kangaroo Point before moving to the Darling Downs to start new commercial interests. Although financial success continued to elude them, the Lord family contributed to the settlement of colonial Queensland. Edward and Eliza’s great-great-grand-daughter, Janet Spillman, explores the way Queensland moulded the Lord family’s lives, and the way family members contributed to the colony’s development.
