Maureen O'Carroll: A Musical Memoir of an Irish Immigrant Childhood vividly brings to life growing up in a large, quirky but ambitious, Irish immigrant family during the Depression and War time in Australia. This enchanting memoir is told through the eyes of the middle child of the ten O'Carroll children, mischievous Maureen, who went on to become an acclaimed cellist.After years of periodic imprisonment in Ireland for their fight for independence, Maureen's parents immigrated to Sydney, Australia with their large family in 1930. The patriarch, John O'Carroll, sets up in the storefront of their Balmain terrace house a barbershop, The Anchor Hairdressing Salon, which becomes a hub of activity for the locals. Maureen's mother, May Gahan O'Carroll, an honored participant in the 1916 Irish Uprising, supplements the family's income with her fortune-telling gifts. Reversing the letters of her last name, she calls herself "Madame Llarraco". Throughout this colorful memoir infused with Irish history, local politics, Catholicism and the humorous struggles of Depression-era life, music remains a vital theme. It is instrumental in the family rising above their hard circumstances to achieve a better life. Remarkably, all ten children were musicians.This evocative memoir, written by the mother-daughter team of Maureen O'Carroll and Leora O'Carroll, is a beautiful, poignant and entertaining story of family, adaption and overcoming tough times to survive - and indeed thrive.REVIEWS: NY Times Best-Selling Author Jacqueline Sheehan on Goodreads: "This is more than a charming Irish memoir. The voice of a spirited young girl sets the perfect tone to deliver Irish history, the determination of a family to make their way into another country, and the importance of music."The Jamaica Gleaner: "The duo's commendable, uncluttered style carries the narrative easily along, as they choose specifically poignant details, which make for engaging read."

This book presents the work of the eminent British-American psychologist, Maureen O’Hara. It explores the trajectory of humanistic psychology over the last few decades, providing a link between its original proponents, notably Carl Rogers, and its contemporary manifestations.The text reproduces 18 of O’Hara’s original papers arranged in six parts, each of which reflects a significant area in which she has contributed her rigorous analysis and creative thinking, i.e., the person-centred approach, humanistic psychology, third force science, client-centred therapy, psychology futures, and education. A unique feature of the book is a series of dialogues about O’Hara’s contributions in each of these areas with the book’s editor, Keith Tudor. The dialogues reveal not only O’Hara’s reflections on and further thinking about each area of her contributions, but also how prescient her analysis was, and how contemporary and relevant her thinking still is.Bringing together a collection of O’Hara’s works to a broader audience, this book will be of interest to humanistic psychologists and psychotherapists, as well as those studying and/or training in this field.
