The Elusive Quest for Human Flourishing in the Inner City
David Beggs reports on in-depth research into the effects on the people of Dublin’s North East Inner City of the proposed transfer of Temple Street Children’s Hospital.

John Scally offers the first part of what he hopes will be a contribution to a calm, measure reflection on a painful problem.

These can arise especially at table with family or friends.
