Treachery in Turtle Bay II

Oil, Dollars, Diplomacy and the Sinister Three

By: G. Hugh Bodell

A billion dollars a month is being diverted from the Iraqi oil revenues, over $10 Billion has disappeared. The mega-scam deeply involves the United Nations, the United States President and his National Security Advisor. In the shadowed background, manipulating the participants in the rip-off, are three ruthless career crooks, super rich, vicious, ruthless and politically powerful. Anna and Hugh Masterson, the techno-sleuthing couple that 'star' in the Treachery In Turtle Bay Collection, were launched into the roles of a Robin Hood like couple in book one of the series. Hugh's black and white view of right and wrong coupled with Anna's technology expertise draw the couple further into the depths of international corruption and intrigue in this, book two of the series. The sleuthing couple have evolved from their first accidental venture of 'recovery and retribution' into a far more cynical duo who are perfecting not only the recovering of stolen loot but equally as intriguing the netting out of unique justice. The Mastersons find their resolve sorely tested as they pursue the billions and find themselves personally the target of vindictive and brutal violence but when attacked, the Mastersons show that they are personally capable of using deadly force to protect them and their team. The sleuthing is complex, the plot, as with all the author's books, a mixture of fact with the workings of imagination and the violence and murders creative and full of imagery. The book is a thinking reader's mystery delight by a former consultant to the United Nations on technology and related security issues, an attribute which evokes in the reader the question as to where fiction and fact are separated.

The British Isles

A History of Four Nations

By: Hugh Kearney

Hugh Kearney's classic account of the history of the British Isles from pre-Roman times to the present is distinguished by its treatment of English history as part of a wider 'history of four nations'. Not only focusing on England, it attempts to deal with the histories of Wales, Ireland and Scotland in their own terms, whilst recognising that they too have political, religious and cultural divides. This new edition endeavours to recognise and examine contemporary multi-ethnic Britain and its implications for 'four-nations' history, making it an invaluable case study for European nationhood of the past and present. Thoroughly updated throughout to take into account recent social, political and cultural changes within Britain and examine the rise of multi-ethnic Britain, this revised edition also contains a completely new set of illustrations, including sixteen maps.

The Poetry of Derek Mahon

By: Hugh Haughton

The Poetry of Derek Mahon

By: Hugh Haughton

Derek Mahon is one of the leading poets of his time, both in Ireland and beyond, famously offering a perspective that is displaced from as much as grounded in his native country. From prodigious beginnings to prolific maturity, he has been, through thick and thin, through troubled times and other, a writer profoundly committed to the art of poetry and the craft of making verse. He has also been no-less a committed reviser of his work, believing the poem to be more than a record in verse, but a work of art never finished. This virtuoso study by Hugh Haughton provides the most comprehensive account imaginable of Mahon's oeuvre. Haughton's brilliant writing always serves and illuminates the poetry, yielding extraordinary insights on almost every page. The poetry, its revisions and reception, are the subject here, but so thorough is the approach that what is offered also amounts indirectly to an intellectual biography of the poet and with it an account of Northern Irish poetry vital to our understanding of the times.

Contested Ideas of Nationalism and History

Ireland

Contested Ideas of Nationalism and History

By: Hugh F Kearney

What is the Irish nation? Who is included in it? Are its borders delimited by religion, ethnicity, language, or civic commitment? And how should we teach its history? These and other questions are carefully considered by distinguished historian Hugh F. Kearney in Ireland: Contested Ideas of Nationalism and History. The insightful essays collected here all circle around Ireland, with the first section attending to questions of nationalism and the second addressing pivotal moments in the history and historiography of the isle. Kearney contends that Ireland represents a striking example of the power of nationalism, which, while unique in many ways, provides an illuminating case study for students of the modern world. He goes on to elaborate his revisionist “four nations” approach to Irish history. In the book, Kearney recounts his own development in the field and the key personalities, departments, and movements he encountered along the way. It is a unique portrait not only of a humane and sensitive historian, but of the historical profession (and the practice of history) in Britain, Ireland, and the United States from the 1940s to the late 20th century-at once public intellectual history and fascinating personal memoir.

Update on Polymers for Pulmonary Drug Delivery

By: Hugh D. C Smyth

Pulmonary drug delivery has been a rapidly expanding field, moving from the traditional propellant based metered dose inhaler delivery of small asthma drugs, to a broader landscape of new devices and novel drugs for local and systemic delivery. The field has greatly expanded yet the tools for pulmonary drug delivery systems have not kept pace with the potential applications. One of the key developments has been the use of polymers to achieve better control of pulmonary drug delivery. This has the potential to expand the toolbox available for researchers in the field to deliver their new chemical entities successfully to the lung. This book reviews the use of polymers in pulmonary drug delivery, encompassing polymers from their use in devices and packaging, in addition to their use as excipients in formulations delivered to the airways. The book is arranged by application and extensively reviews the technical and patent literature. This is the first volume totally dedicated to polymers in pulmonary drug delivery and should be the resource of choice for those in the field, especially managers in the pharma/biotech industry. Naturally, the text will be of great interest to academics and graduate students. Finally, regulatory affiliated scientists will also find this resource invaluable.
