Focusing on the years 1842 to 1867, Newspapers and Newsmakers
evaluates the impact of the Dublin nationalist press on the Irish
nationalist cause in its aspirations to overthrow the 1800 Act of
Union and establish an independent Irish nation. The Dublin
nationalist journalists were totally immersed in Irish nationalist
activities, whether by reporting news or creating it, often risking
danger to themselves from the British government. Beginning with
The Nation, a newspaper that heralded a new era of Irish political
and cultural nationalism, this book charts the Dublin nationalist
press's emphatic role in the promotion of Daniel O'Connell's Repeal
of the Union campaign with its impressive peaceful mass
mobilizations, the bitter and turbulent splits between leading
Irish nationalists in 1846 and 1848, and the attempted Young
Ireland rebellion. Following the temporary downfall of the
nationalist movement, and in response to the Great Famine, the
Dublin nationalist journalists sought an ideological reconstruction
of the Irish nationalist cause that included a long-term commitment
to revolutionary nationalism leading to the rise of the Irish
Republican Brotherhood. Drawing upon critical analyses of the
political and literary contents of the Dublin nationalist
newspapers, emphasis is placed upon the power of ideas,
particularly the impassioned dynamics between constitutional
nationalism and revolutionary nationalism. This book also focuses
on the thinking of high-profile nationalist writers such as Thomas
Davis and John Mitchel and the inspiration they gave to their
contemporaries and future Irish nationalists alike. Newspapers and
Newsmakers establishes that what was written in the Dublin
nationalist press during the mid-nineteenth century had a powerful
and enduring influence on the development of Irish nationalism.

Discovery of Oyu Tolgoi: A Case Study of Mineral and Geological
Exploration provides a detailed account of the exploration for
copper deposits that took place in Mongolia in the mid-1990s, an
exploration that was first started by Magma Copper and then
continued by BHP Billiton World Exploration Inc., and which
subsequently lead to the discovery of Oyu Tolgoi, a major metal
mine. This book commemorates the 20-year anniversary for the global
mining industry, including details on exploration methods, the
tools applied throughout the discovery, and how the applied models
evolved over the course of the execution of the exploration
program. In addition, the book presents how the knowledge of the
team evolved as they further understood the regional geology and
the necessary geological conditions for a significant porphyry
discovery.

The outbreak of global health issues due to rapid urbanization,
industrialization, and changing climatic conditions are severely
impacting health and lifestyle. Yet, healthcare and medical
services continue to increase in cost in developed nations. This
can result in medical tourism, wherein patients travel across
countries in order to benefit from medical treatment that might not
be accessible in the traveler's nation of origin. Developing
countries are prepared to capitalize on this growing industry by
offering multi-specialty healthcare hospitals, cost-effective
treatments, and the promotion of online medical consultancy. Global
Developments in Healthcare and Medical Tourism provides innovative
insights into issues impacting healthcare services, healthcare
service providers, government policies, and initiatives for health
reforms and explores low-cost medical tourism destinations and
practices. The book additionally seeks to deliver high-quality,
cost-efficient smart healthcare applications. The content within
this publication examines global health, wellness tourism, and
global business and is designed for students, researchers,
academicians, policymakers, government officials, medical
practitioners, and industry professionals.

In Western societies, leisure has been a major force in changing
people's lives. The containment of working time and the rise in
spending power have been long-term trends and are likely to
continue over the next decades. While growth of leisure may not
have eradicated differences by social class, gender or age, it has
transformed how these differences are expressed, challenged or
modified. In parallel, leisure studies has itself developed
significantly as an academic discipline. This second edition is a
complete rewrite of the first edition published in 1999. It is an
introductory undergraduate text on leisure. It has a sociological
perspective and discusses recent debates and research on topics
such as post-modernity, consumer cultures and lifestyles.

Delinquent presenters, controversial executive pay-offs, the Jimmy
Savile scandal...The BBC is one of the most successful broadcasters
in the world, but its programme triumphs are often accompanied by
management crises and high-profile resignations.One of the most
respected figures in the broadcasting industry, Roger Mosey has

as editor of Radio 4's Today programme, head of television news and
director of the London 2012 Olympic coverage.Now, in Getting Out
Alive, Mosey reveals the hidden underbelly of the BBC, lifting the
lid on the angry tirades from politicians and spin doctors, the
swirling accusations of bias from left and right alike, and the
perils of provoking Margaret Thatcher.Along the way, this
remarkable memoir charts the pleasures and pitfalls of life at the
top of an organisation that is variously held up as a treasured
British institution and cast down as a lumbering, out-of-control
behemoth.Engaging, candid and very funny, Getting Out Alive is a
true insider account of how the BBC works, why it succeeds and
where it falls down.
