Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The room is a space for the mind, and a metaphor for the mind at the same time. Most of us will never find ourselves on a psychiatrists couch and yet our lives would be perilous if we did not make space for our mental health. In this space, we can hold up a mirror and acknowledge our search for meaning. By going to the room, life becomes more resourceful and rewarding. In showing up there, we show up for life itself. Jim Lucey has been working for more than 25 yearswith patients suffering from mental healthproblems. When people at their most vulnerable present to his room at St Patricks University Hospital, Dublin, they reveal their fears, traumas, and very real human predicaments. Most of the assessments described in this book took place in this room. While the patients stories are diverse, one common theme emerges that of recovery. The psychiatrist and patients show us that recovery is possible, if we can find a way to engage. Many of us find it difficult to speak of the mind, and care of the mind requires an ability to listen and to reflect. This inspiring book will give you many moments of reflection as you journey with Jims patients towards recovery, and will restore your faith in the human experience. Reviews: 'Using the art of clinical storytelling, Professor Lucey allows us to enter his room an extraordinary space where theory informs practice and practice informs theory . In My Room provides valuable insights that will benefit every human being interested in better understanding mental health.

Professor Lucy goes a long way to demystifying the mysteries and of making the patient part of our society.' - Peter Costello, The Irish Catholic 'Lucy has taken the bold step of telling these stories to the general public in order to break down the barriers between patients with mental illness and healthcare professionals.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The spiritual story of humanity is at least 70,000 years old. By comparison, the formal religions have existed for a mere 4,500 years. Spirituality is, and perhaps always has been, more central to human experience than religion. Diarmuid O Murchu's purpose in writing this book has been to retrieve the long lost subverted tradition of spirituality and re-establish its primary significance in the human search for meaning and purpose in life. While the modern world continues to struggle with religious fanaticism on the one hand and religious indifference on the other, spirituality explodes with new vision and with fresh possibilities for a more integrated world view. Drawing on the modern findings of many disciplines, the author sets out to explore this new spiritual irruption, one that leaves religious allegiance waning while millions throughout the world seek meaning and nourishment in a range of new contexts, many of which transcend, circumvent and even abandon the religious certainty of bygone days. This is a challenging and provocative but, above all, reassuring book for those who are seeking spiritual meaning today. Other books by Diarmuid O'Murchu Religion in Exile.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Tony Muggivan is a farmer. One wet night in February 1989, Brendan ODonnell entered his life and that of his family. He had absconded from Trinity Detention Centre in Dublin and had been missing for a week. He turned up at Tony Muggivans door, dirty, dishevelled and starving. The Muggivans took him in. Tony had never seen ODonnell before. The next day, Tony Muggivan, in agreement with the Gardai, got a weeks grace for ODonnell and began a search for help. It was clear that he should be in a psychiatric unit, not a detention centre. Doctors, social workers and the Gardai all agreed that this was the best course of action. As there was no place for him in Co. Clare, Muggivan took ODonnell to hospitals in Ballinasloe and Galway, where they refused to admit him. Frustrated and angry, Muggivan and ODonnell returned home. Over the next five years Brendan began living rough and embarked on a campaign of armed robbery and mayhem in the east Clare area. It was evident he was out of control. In 1994 ODonnell murdered Imelda Riney, her three-year old son Liam and Fr. Joe Walsh. It was one of the most shocking crimes of modern times. ODonnell was convicted in 1996 and died in prison in 1997 in circumstances that have never been fully explained by the authorities. Tony and J.J. Muggivan recount Brendan ODonnells tragic life, and highlight the failures of the system to help a deeply disturbed boy who later became a pyschotic killer. Tony Muggivan had known that something awful was going to happen: for five years, he had tried and failed to get the Irish social and medical system to offer appropriate treatment to a desperately sick young man. A Tragedy Waiting to Happen reveals the truth behind the headlines and the real Brendan ODonnell. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.
