Augustinian University Press
The Augustinian University Press concentrates its efforts in the publication of research books, textbooks, and dissemination books as a result of permanent calls that intend to receive and review monographs and research chapters. The Press permanently works to guarantee content quality published under its editorial stamp and also to be recognized among the academic community as a reliable source of scholarly publishing in Augustinian Studies, Education (from all levels), Humanities, Social Sciences, and Arts and Culture. Since its creation in 2017, the Press research books have been already accepted and indexed in important databases such as the Book Citation Index and the Directory of Open Access Books (DOAB). This experience has strengthened our editorial processes and the permanent identification of current editing and science communication tendencies. The Press also promotes net working to publish new editorial projects between our researchers and external scholars; we do believe this is one of the most important strategies to make our institution and scholars more visible.

Ireland and the European Union
Economic, political and social crises
by Michael Holmes, Kathryn Simpson, Dimitris Papadimitriou, Kathryn Simpson, Paul Tobin
This book examines how Ireland's relationship with the EU was affected by a succession of crises in both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. The financial crisis, the Brexit crisis and the migration crisis were not of equal significance on the island of Ireland. The financial crisis was a huge issue for the Republic but not Northern Ireland, Brexit had a major impact in both polities, the migration and populism issues were less controversial, while foreign policy challenges had a minimal impact. The book provides a summary of the main features of each of the crises to be considered, from both the EU and the Irish perspective. Ireland and the European Union is the first volume of its kind to provide a comprehensive analysis on British-Irish relations in the context of Brexit. It assesses the Withdrawal Agreement and Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland, the devolution settlement and the 1998 Agreement, as well as the European dimension to Northern Ireland's peace process. The contributors explore a number of policy areas that are central to the understanding of each of the crises and the impact of each for Ireland. Chapters examine issues such as security, migration and taxation as well as protest politics, political parties, the media, public opinion and the economic impact of each of these crises on Ireland's relationship with the EU.

Migrant architects of the NHS
South Asian doctors and the reinvention of British general practice (1940s-1980s)
by Julian Simpson, Keir Waddington
Migrant architects of the NHS draws on forty-five oral history interviews and extensive archival research to offer a radical reappraisal of how the National Health Service was made. It tells the story of migrant South Asian doctors who became general practitioners in the NHS. Imperial legacies, professional discrimination and an exodus of UK-trained doctors combined to direct these doctors towards work as GPs in some of the most deprived parts of the UK. In some areas, they made up over half of the general practitioner workforce. The NHS was structurally dependent on them and they shaped British society and medicine through their agency. Aimed at students and academics with interests in the history of immigration, immigration studies, the history of medicine, South Asian studies and oral history. It will also be of interest to anyone who wants to know more about how Empire and migration have contributed to making Britain what it is today.
