A Companion to Anglican Eucharistic Theology

Volume 1: The Reformation to the 19th Century

By: Brian Douglas

Anglican eucharistic theology varies between the different philosophical assumptions of realism and nominalism. This book presents case studies from the Reformation to the Nineteenth Century and avoids the hermeneutic idealism of particular church parties by critically examining the Anglican eucharistic tradition.

Far Cries

By: Brian Fitzpatrick

The Leamey’s is an epic story of hardship, devotion and love of an Irish family living in Doonas Ireland in the 1840s, where they are taken to the depths of despair, separated by hardship and starvation during the potato famine and overcoming immense tragedy which split the family to three Continents on a journey so incredible it test the souls to breaking point, where hope and determination creates great triumphs of the human spirit. Brian Leamey is very angry but worried for his family when he’s convicted of assaulting a Police Officer. His beloved wife and family are devastated when he is sentenced to ten years on a wretched penal colony on the infamous Van Diemans land. He is transported almost immediately. His wife Kate is now left to bring up their children alone, Patrick, Katherine and Tomas. Lonely and desperate Kate struggles to survive, and when the devastation of the potato famine hits Ireland starvation and disease follows. Meanwhile, on Van Deamans Land Brian is forced to hard labour where his tormentors inform him of the tragedy currently sweeping Ireland, Brian is horror-stricken, but can do nothing. His young family are suffering at the mercy of the famine he is just devastated and doesn’t know what to do. Seeing her family suffering Kate confides in the oldest boy Patrick that he must fend for himself now and find a new life, he must get out of Ireland, and he must find his own path of survival. Kate arranges Patrick’s transportation to America with his Uncle and Aunty along with thousands more Irish people. It is hard for her but she does it out of love. Patrick is taken on a sweeping journey across America, all the while having one focus, to have his family reunited. He must make it to Van Diemans land to find his father. He must. So begins Patrick’s amazing heartfelt journey across America in a land that tests his conviction, a tumultuous land of violence, poverty and fortune, where bare-knuckle fighting can lead to regaled opportunities, a time of the gold rush, and the mania of staking a claim among ruthless and desperate criminals. The Leamey’s adventure is a breathless tale of one man’s brutal survival, and another man who never loses hope that his dreams just may come true.

A warm, touching, funny, sexy, romantic, thoroughly enjoyable, brilliantly-plotted page-turner ... a ray of sunshine' Hot Press Five colleagues. One dreadful day. And the biggest shock of her life for high-flying career girl Katherine Casey, who'd believed she was safe from the job losses coming to Qwertec Solutions. The mood is sombre as she and devastated ex-colleagues gather in the pub. But a few drinks later, with the discovery of a shared passion for the silver screen, things begin to look up. And the Forced Redundancy Film Club is born. Over a year, Katherine, along with office oddball Alice, stressed out mother-of-three Lisa, professional sorrow-drowner Martin and cheating-heart Jamie meet up each month to watch their favourite classic films. As they journey through Casablanca, Breakfast at Tiffany's, The Wizard of Oz, Brokeback Mountain and many others, each faces their own personal challenges: from negative-equity hell to heartache, loneliness, toddler-strife -- and the wrath of a certain bunny boiler. And each finds comfort in the one place where they're guaranteed a happy ending. But will the dreams they dare to dream every really come true? Only time will tell...

The Rise of Gridiron University

Higher Education's Uneasy Alliance with Big-Time Football

By: Brian M. Ingrassia

The quarterback sends his wide receiver deep. The crowd gasps as he launches the ball. And when he hits his man, the team's fans roar with approval-especially those with the deep pockets. Make no mistake; college football is big business, played with one eye on the score, the other on the bottom line. But was this always the case? Brian M. Ingrassia here offers the most incisive account to date of the origins of college football, tracing the sport's evolution from a gentlemen's pastime to a multi-million dollar enterprise that made athletics a permanent fixture on our nation's campuses and cemented college football's place in American culture. He takes readers back to the late 1800s to tell how schools embraced the sport as a way to get the public interested in higher learning-and then how football's immediate popularity overwhelmed campuses and helped create the beast we know today. Contrary to conventional wisdom, Ingrassia proves that the academy did not initially resist the inclusion of athletics; rather, progressive reformers and professors embraced football as a way to make the ivory tower less elitist. With its emphasis on disciplined teamwork and spectatorship, football was seen as a "middlebrow" way to make the university more accessible to the general public. What it really did was make athletics a permanent fixture on campus with its own set of professional experts, bureaucracies, and ostentatious cathedrals. Ingrassia examines the early football programs at universities like Michigan, Stanford, Ohio State, and others, then puts those histories in the context of Progressive Era culture, including insights from coaches like Georgia Tech's John Heisman and Notre Dame's Knute Rockne. He describes how reforms emerged out of incidents such as Teddy Roosevelt's son being injured on the field and a section of grandstands collapsing at the University of Chicago. He also touches on some of the problems facing current day college football and shows us that we haven't come far from those initial arguments more than a century ago. The Rise of Gridiron University shows us where and how it all began, highlighting college football's essential role in shaping the modern university-and by extension American intellectual culture. It should have wide appeal among students of American studies and sports history, as well as fans of college football curious to learn how their game became a cultural force in a matter of a few decades.

Irish History Matters

Politics, Identities and Commemoration

By: Professor Brian M. Walker

While knowledge of history can explain our contemporary situation, an awareness of the myths and misuses of our history can bring a broader and more conciliatory approach to current political and social challenges. History or, more correctly, 'views of the past' or 'historical myths' have shaped politics in both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. These views served in part to cause and sustain the 'Troubles'. Eventually, many historical perceptions were challenged, which helped to promote the peace process. New ideas of revised and shared history were important. These changes are explored here. The public expression of history in Ireland through commemoration of important historical events and persons is investigated in a number of chapters. The impact of historical developments on identity is studied not just in Ireland, north and south, but also among the Irish diaspora, especially in America. In Irish History Matters, Brian M. Walker uses three decades of research to explore the effects historical events have had on Irish politics and society, and why they still have an important influence today.

Sexual Chemistry and Other Tales of the Biotech Revolution

By: Brian Stableford

This collection brings together the ten earliest stories in Brian Stableford’s series of "Tales of the Biotech Revolution," all written in the 1980s, except for one anomalous example from the 1960s. The dates in some of the stories, located a comfortable distance in the future when the stories were written, have now long past, revealing certain anomalies of early expectation; but they have been left unaltered, as nostalgic samples of yesterday’s long-dead and perhaps much-lamented tomorrows. The collection begins and ends, as is surely only appropriate, with flamboyant utopian fantasies boldly asserting the perfectibility of humankind and the world of which the species has custody. Great science-fiction reading by a master of the form!

Overcoming Obstacles in CBT

By: Craig Chigwedere,Yvonne Tone,Brian Fitzmaurice,Michael McDonough

While many textbooks explain the techniques of CBT, few fully explore the issues surrounding their application in real-life practice. This unique book comes to the rescue of anyone struggling with the challenges of practising CBT, whether you are a trainee working under supervision or a qualified practitioner. It examines key obstacles, issues and difficulties encountered over the course of the therapy, illustrated with extensive case examples. Learning objectives, practice exercises and further reading lists help you engage with and relate the issues to your own practice. Acknowledging that people are more complex than just the presenting disorder, the authors consider questions around: o Good practice in assessment and case formulation o The challenge of diagnosis o Key client issues, such as guilt and shame, perfectionism, and inability to tolerate storing feeling o The therapeutic relationship o Organisational factors. This succinct and accessible guide throws a lifebelt to any CBT trainee or therapist struggling under the realities of today′s psychotherapy and counselling practice, particularly within NHS settings.

Guillain-Barré Syndrome

5 Years Later

By: Brian S. Langton

This book is about three people from different walks of life, each of whom experienced a life-changing episode of Guillain-Barré Syndrome. Three dramatic stories in one. Firstly, a story of the Author's remarkable almost complete recovery following his encounter with the syndrome. It is a frank and personal account of his struggle to regain much of what he had lost in bodily function during one year of hospitalisation. It should provide inspiration and possibly answer so many questions typically asked by others afflicted with this syndrome. Secondly, case studies written by two co-author contributors, one a Calgary Veterinarian and mother of two, the other a retired Vancouver resident who was struck with Guillain-Barré Syndrome whilst shopping for a boat in England. "There is no single answer to the question as to how life may change after recovery from this disorder. Each case appears to be unique. That is why I have chosen to include, not just a record of my partial recovery, but also the recovery record of two additional people, each different from one another's and each certainly different from mine (Author's Preface)". "We eventually identified a boat—only three feet short of what we had wanted— that was within our budget. At this point Heather's brother, who lived nearby, said he would like a share in the boat, to which we agreed. During this discussion in his house I had to ask him to refrain from smoking, as my throat was quite sore. I was feeling rather run down and often felt cold. About the same time on a Saturday, I felt a tingling in the finger tips of my left hand and found they were a bit swollen. I mentioned it to Heather, but it did not seem serious. It was, however, the first sign that I had contracted GBS. If only I had known, the treatment might have been started earlier! (Patrick Hill)" "Probably the worst face of Guillain-Barré Syndrome is the effect it has on loved ones. Severe, or not, chronic or not, it matters little to the supporting family at the bedside of a patient. Fear, puzzlement, and apprehension are all experienced by the loved ones. Reading the case histories of Sarah and Patrick, one learns how their spouses also suffered many frightening experiences, but in spite of all that, they remained – obviously without second thought, hesitation or doubt. True to their marriage vows, they provided so much love, care and support. That was the shared experience among the three of us (Author: Epilogue).

Piety and Nationalism

Lay Voluntary Associations and the Creation of an Irish-Catholic Community in Toronto, 1850-1895

By: Brian P. Clarke

While the role of the laity in the nationalist awakening is commonly recognized, their part in the movement for religious renewal is usually minimized. Initiative on the part of the laity has been thought to have existed only outside the church, where it remained a troubling and at times insurgent force. Clarke revises this picture of the role of the laity in church and community. He examines the rich associational life of the laity, which ranged from nationalist and fraternal associations independent of the church to devotional and philanthropic associations affiliated with the church. Associations both inside and outside the church fostered ethnic consciousness in different but complementary ways that resulted in a cultural consensus based on denominational loyalty. Through these associations, lay men and women developed an institutional base for the activism and initiative that shaped both their church and their community. Clarke demonstrates that lay activists played a pivotal role in transforming the religious life of the community.

But the reality is beginning to set in and I know only too well that at least in this life I shall never speak openly with my son. Never again shall I laugh with him, drink with him, discuss his future or watch him take to the field.' So begins a father's descent into hell. On 12 October 2002, Brian Deegan's son Joshua was killed in the terrorist explosion that ripped apart the Sari Club in Bali's Kuta Beach. Through grief and anger, this father has gone on a journey no parent should have to take. He has confronted the ghost's of his son's death, challenged the government's version of the truth and fought for the answers nobody wanted to give. Raw and powerful, Remembering Josh cuts to the heart of love and honesty. Nobody reading this book will be left unaffected by it.

Chronicle of Murder

A Dark and Bloody History of Our Age

By: Brian Lane

The 20th century saw the rise of the motiveless murder and the serial killer, the development of forensic science and the use of DNA and psychological profiling as weapons against it. In this book, true crime expert Brian Lane examines year by year, from 1900 onward, every major murder case in the light of its investigative, forensic, social or legal significance. In over 200 cases listed there are not only landmark cases for criminologists but also grim highlights of popular mythology. The roll call includes Dr Crippen, Charles Manson, the Kray Twins, Bonnie and Clyde, the Moors Murderers, the Waco massacre and Beverley Allitt. Also here is the notable case of the last woman to be hanged in Britain, convicted murderer Ruth Ellis, whose execution hastened the abolition of the death penalty in the UK. More recent crimes include the shooting of Gianni Versace by a gay prostitute, the murder of Alberto Adriano in Germany by killers dressed as Neo-Nazis, and Britain's Sky-Diving case in which the sabotage of Steven Hilder's parachute caused him to fall to his death. This is a compelling catalogue of killers and society's desperate attempts to capture and comprehend them.
