Born in a Mother and Baby Home in 1950s Ireland, Mary grew up in an institution not far from the farm where Clair spent happy childhood summers. Yet she was never told of her existence.How could a whole family - a whole country - abandon unmarried mothers and their children, erasing them from history?To discover the missing pieces of her family''s story, Clair searched across archives and nations, in a journey that would take her from the 1890s to the 1980s, from West Cork to rural Suffolk and Massachusetts, from absent fathers to the grief of a lost child.There are some experiences that do not want to be remembered.

Non-Fiction Book of the Year 2024, Irish Book AwardsShortlisted for the TLS Ackerley Prize 2025Longlisted for the Ewart-Biggs Prize 2025 How far would you go for the missing?Blending private and public history, cultural analysis, family memoir and autobiography, Clair Wills explores profound questions about memory, loss, motherhood and emigration. She traces a history of sexual secrecy through four generations of unplanned pregnancies in her own family, stretching from the 1890s to the 1980s and from the West of Ireland to Massachusetts, London and the English countryside, dramatizing the power of secret-keeping as a form of care, particularly between women, but also as violence and exclusion. At the heart of her search is a cousin who went missing from her own family, born in a Mother and Baby Home in the 1950s, and brought up in an institution. Wills asks not only what happened, but why? Why did families consent to the institutional care and control of unmarried mothers and their children? Why did the system make sense to ordinary families, and how can we make sense of it now? What questions should we be asking about guilt, blame, and responsibility?In order to uncover how people thought about illicit sex, illegitimacy, ... Unknown localization key: "more"

They have shared everything, including their desire to escape the stifling limitations of their birthplace, the quiet town of Royston, Massachusetts.

Mindhunter - Mark Olshaker, John E. Douglas - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Jak proniknout do mysli sériového vraha. Audiokniha dle knižní předlohy úspěšného stejnojmenného seriálu. John Douglas, agent FBI, se na konci 70. let ve snaze pomoci rozvoji kriminalistiky odhodlal ponořit do psychologie vraždy a přiblížit se znepokojivě blízko skutečným netvorům. Pátral po některých z nejznámějších a nejsadističtějších zločinců naší doby: po vrazích, kteří nechvalně prosluli jako „Trailside Killer“ v San Franciscu nebo „Atlantský vrah dětí“. Desítky sériových vrahů konfrontoval, vedl s nimi rozhovory a zkoumal jejich psychiku – patřili mezi ně Charles Manson, Richard Speck a mnozí další. Studoval je – vstupoval do jejich myslí – aby pochopil jejich motivy. John Douglas je muž, který se stal předlohou legendárního filmového agenta FBI Jacka Crawforda v thrillerech Červený drak a Mlčení jehňátek, a muž, který předznamenal nový věk v behaviorální vědě a kriminálním profilování. John Douglas sloužil u policie přes dvacet let, a teprve když odešel ze služby, mohl konečně povyprávět svůj jedinečný příběh. Seriál Mindhunter, který vznikl na základě knihy, patří mezi jeden z nejsledovanějších a nejlépe hodnocených seriálů na ČSFD a podílel se na něm i známý režisér David Fincher (Sedm, Klub rváčů, Zodiac, Vetřelec 3).

Tommy Douglas and the Quest for Medicare in Canada - Gregory Marchildon
How and why was universal health coverage implemented so early in a poverty-stricken province in Canada? Why was its design so faithfully replicated in the national standards that ultimately shaped Medicare across the rest of Canada? Seeking to answer these questions, Tommy Douglas and the Quest for Medicare in Canada explores the history of universal health care through the life of Canadian politician Tommy Douglas, identifying the pivotal moments and decisions that led to the establishment of Medicare in Canada. The book traces the origins of Medicare back to the 1930s Depression and its devastating impact on the Prairie populations. Marchildon examines how Tommy Douglas and a new generation of reformers, radicalized by the Depression, prioritized socialized health care. The book reveals how, as the provincial party leader, Douglas leveraged support from both local and external allies to rapidly implement universal hospital insurance and lay the groundwork for a new health system. Despite strong opposition from physician and business lobbies, Douglas continued to pressure the government for federal cost-sharing of universal health coverage. Drawing on archival sources including speeches, television broadcasts, and cabinet documents, Tommy Douglas and the Quest for Medicare in Canada illuminates how Douglas’s vision, leadership, and coalition-building ...
