Publisher's Synopsis
'What Price Peace?' is an autobiographical account of a language teacher, who used environmental issues as a common theme to bring the different sections of the community together to work for peace in Northern Ireland during the Troubles. Irvine then went on to progress this educational model Internationally and she gives us a poetic, honest and haunting account of her life and visionary work in Ireland, Sweden, Peru, Russia, Indonesia and Nova Scotia. She revisits and shares with us her inspirational success story (recognised by UNCED) of empowerment for women working in the environmental field and striving towards peace and awareness in troubled lands.
