Candles in the Dark

Author: James McKenna, Farhat Manzoor & Greta Jones

Publisher: Nuffield Trust

This report tells the story of how medical care was dispensed during the period of the recent civil conflict in Northern Ireland. Based on interviews with medical professionals who lived and worked through the Troubles as well those with whom they came into contact, it highlights the strains and ethical tensions that the Troubles in Northern Ireland placed on the medical profession. Based on the experiences of those in hospitals, surgeries and prisons within the province, Candles in the Dark is both a significant record of the issues faced and a testament to the integrity and dedication of the vast majority the medical professionals involved.
