2035 AND BEYOND. A GUIDE TO THRIVING IN THE FUTURE WORKPLACE.

Unleash Your Potential in a Futuristic Career Landscape. Virtual Worlds, Skills Mastery, and Success.

By: Moira Devlin

In the rapidly evolving landscape of modern careers, an unprecedented challenge looms large: the art of cultivating and perpetuating a dynamic blend of skills that not only ensure your relevance but also safeguard your professional journey. The relentless surge of the fourth industrial and agricultural revolutions has thrust organiSations into an imperative dance of adaptation, rejuvenation, and, at times, complete reinvention of their established business paradigms. In this epoch of rapid transformation, both the corridors of power and the halls of innovation are not idly awaiting the inevitable changes on the horizon. Instead, they propel you headlong into tomorrow's possibilities, today. The dawn of emerging technologies like Artificial Intelligence and Robotics promises to not only permeate our personal lives but also seamlessly integrate into the fabric of our professional landscapes. Amidst this unfolding evolution, a question emerges like a beacon of hope: How can you navigate and unearth your intrinsic capacities, crafting a distinct prowess that transcends the grasp of automation, endowing you with an unmistakable competitive advantage? Existing research tirelessly chants a dual anthem—jobs will dissipate, yet many more will emerge from the cocoon of the unforeseen. However, the symphony of these new roles remains elusive, often remaining shrouded in mystery until they materialise. How then can you master the symphony of change? How can you find harmony in collaboration with machines, turning them from rivals to partners in your journey? This is where your journey begins—a journey that takes you beyond the confines of traditional reading. Enter the realm of the uncharted—the skill set poised to be the catalyst of transformation—the marriage of your soft and business acumen. Yet, as fate would have it, these skills find themselves as an overlooked chapter in the story of our education, a footnote in our professional training. The rhythm of their acquisition is often set to the tune of trial and error, conducted by the maestro of life experiences. But what if the script could be rewritten, allowing you to actively shape your future in a world where soft and business skills are the keys to success? Picture a canvas where you bridge your skills gap, unravel the enigma of soft and business skills, and forge an actionable roadmap that ensures the trajectory of your career shines ever brighter amidst the shifting tides. Unlock the door to revelation, for the key lies in the pages ahead—a portal to a future yet unseen. Welcome to the future, where the boundaries of time and space blur. 2035 and Beyond: A Guide to Thriving in the Future Workplace is an extraordinary non-fiction book that invites readers on a thrilling journey through time and space. Within its captivating narrative, readers assume the role of a protagonist transported to the year 2035 and beyond, where they work for a visionary organisation in a world unlike any they've known.

NW Trilogy

Dance Floor; Life of Riley; Waking/Walking

By: Roy Williams,Suhayla El-Bushra,Moira Buffini

Set amongst the vibrant, intense cacophony of North West London, NW Trilogy is a collection of three vivid stories, told over one performance, that remember and celebrate people who changed the course of history. The personal is political in these soulful explorations of what it means to be part of one of the most dynamic communities in the world. First, we reel to a dance hall in 'County Kilburn' in Moira Buffini's Dance Floor where the Guinness flows, the music never stops and for homesick Aoife, there's far more at stake than a dance. In Roy Williams' bittersweet Life of Riley, Paulette is on a journey to connect with her estranged father Riley, a reggae musician once part of the influential Trojan Records scene, who can't seem to let go of the past. And, Suhayla El-Bushra's Waking/Walking introduces us to Anjali, a wife, mother and newly arrived migrant following Idi Amin's expulsion of the Asian minority from Uganda, who is torn between not making a fuss and seizing her moment to take a stand as the Grunwick dispute unfolds. NW Trilogy is powerful, funny and epic and shows us how we can change the world from our doorstep. This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere as NW Trilogy at Kiln Theatre, London, in August 2021.

Respiratory Medicine

An Asian Perspective

By: Mary Ip,Moira Chan-Yeung,Wah Kit Lam,Nan Shan Zhong

This is the first book to focus on respiratory health and diseases in Asia, where 60% of the world’s population reside. It is well known that disease patterns and health care delivery vary in different parts of the world. With divergent socioeconomic background, genetic makeup and environmental factors, health care issues take on a unique perspective in Asia.

The chapters are contributed by professional leaders who are highly respected for their clinical expertise in respiratory medicine in different parts of Asia. Many of them are internationally renowned for their academic excellence.

The high mobility of populations exposes clinicians to people from all over the world in their daily clinical practice. This informative book is a useful reference equally for medical students, clinicians in training and respiratory specialists. The editors of this volume are Professors Mary Ip, Moira Chan-Yeung and Wah Kit Lam of the University of Hong Kong, and Professor Nan Shan Zhong, Director of the Guangzhou Institute of Respiratory Disease.

Precarious childhood in post-independence Ireland

By: Moira Maguire

This fascinating study reveals the desperate plight of the poor, illegitimate, and abused children in an Irish society that claimed to cherish and hold them sacred, but in fact marginalized and ignored them. It examines closely the history of childhood in post-independence Ireland, and breaks new ground in examining the role of the state in caring for its most vulnerable citizens. Maguire gives voice to those children who formed a significant proportion of the Irish population, but have been ignored in the historical record. More importantly, she uses their experiences as lenses through which to re-evaluate Catholic influence in post-independence Irish society. An essential and timely work, this book offers a different interpretation of the relationships between the Catholic Church, the political establishment, and Irish people; important for those interested in the history of family and childhood as well as twentieth-century Irish social history.
