Mooney was born in Broadgreen Hospital to Gladys (née Norbury) and Edward Mooney. She spent her earliest years in Liverpool on a council estate called The Green on Queen's Drive. She passed her eleven plus and went to Aigburth Vale Girls’ High School (merged with another school to become Calderstones School in 1989). Mooney moved to Wiltshire at the age of fourteen, when her parents bought their first house. She then attended school in Trowbridge, Wiltshire, at Trowbridge Girls' High School (a girls' grammar school which merged with a boys' grammar school to become the comprehensive John of Gaunt School in 1974). She passed eight O levels and took English, Latin and Art at A level. She applied unsuccessfully to the University of Oxford (at that time nobody from her school had been admitted to Oxford), and went on to study English Language and Literature at University College London, where she obtained a distinguished First in 1969. She met philosophy student Jonathan Dimbleby while they were both working on the student newspaper Pi. Dimbleby became her first husband; they married in February 1968 in Kensington after knowing each other for four months.[1] She was a regular broadcaster on BBC Radio 4 from 1982 until 2008, notably as presenter of Devout Sceptics, a programme devoted to public figures' private beliefs - the participants were not necessarily agnostic or atheistic, as the title might suggest. She also made many series for Channel 4 (for example Mothers By Daughters, 1983) and BBC2 (Grief, 1994) and one-off documentaries on people including Ellen Wilkinson MP and Dora Russell. In the '90s Mooney was interviewed many times on radio and television in connection with environmental campaigning. In particular she was involved, like her former husband, in the campaign against the Batheaston Bypass in the 1993-95. During the '80s and '90s she wrote six novels and made many programmes for television and for Radio 4. She was awarded the degree, Hon D.Litt, from the University of Bath in 1998 and appointed Honorary Fellow of Liverpool John Moores University in 2002 and is a Fellow of University College London. Devout Sceptics (BBC Radio 4) won a Sandford St Martin Trust award for religious broadcasting, and the children's novel The Voices of Silence won a New York Public Library Book of the Year citation and was shortlisted for a Gold Medal in the state of California. She has won special awards for journalism from charities including CRUSE. In the '90s she was involved in the establishment of a new literary festival in Bath, and introduced the first ever 'performer', Ted Hughes, in 1996. From 2002 until 2011 she was involved in charitable fund-raising in Bath, as Chairman of the Egg Appeal (to built a dedicated theatre for young people), as President of the Royal United Hospital appeal to built a new NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care) unit, and as Chair of the 2010 appeal to refurbish the Theatre Royal, Bath, Somerset. She currently serves on the Board of Directors of that theatre. Mooney is also Patron of National Family Mediation (NFM) and Relate. Mooney was married to the television journalist Jonathan Dimbleby for thirty-five years when they lived on an organic farm. The couple separated in 2004 after his affair with opera singer Susan Chilcott; since 2006 they have been divorced. They have two adult children, Kitty (born 1980), a freelance journalist and charity consultant and Daniel (born 1974), a television producer/director who now has his own business, the Splitscreen Icecream Company. On 8 September 2007, Mooney married Robin Allison-Smith, formerly a freelance photographer, now a businessman, with whom she lives on the outskirts of Bath, Somerset.[2] Luke lives with his parents in a grey flat in a grey world. But one day, his world starts to change. Luke begins to see the face of a strange green person in the oddest places - out shopping in the supermarket, in the bark of the trees, even in his mother's best china! But who is the green man? And is he real? Only Lily, the colourful old woman who works on the nearby allotment, can tell Luke, for only she can see the odd green fellow. She knows just what he is trying to say and what Luke needs to do to bring him to life. Ex Library book with usual stamps and stickers. Good Clean Condition Book. Jacket Condition: Good.

  • In the Name of Humanity: Britain and the Rise of Global Humanitarianism
    In the Name of Humanity: Britain and the Rise of Global Humanitarianism By Tehila Sasson A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Thomas W. Laqueur, Chair Professor James Vernon, Chair Professor Stefan Ludwig Hoffmann Professor Wendy L. Brown Fall 2015 Copyright © 2015 Tehila Sasson All rights reserved Abstract In the Name of Humanity: Britain and the Rise of Global Humanitarianism by Tehila Sasson Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Thomas W. Laqueur, Chair James Vernon, Chair This study examines how a new humanitarian community emerged in the late 1960s and why it came to act in the name of “humanity.” To realize the nature of this transformation, the study focuses on Britain and its relationship to more global forms of humanitarianism. In post-imperial Britain a new set of actors beyond the British state came to adopt humanitarian ethics. In a series of case studies, the study examines how humanitarianism mobilized a range of new historical actors who came to replace the imperial state, beginning with non-governmental activists and former military experts and expanding to include multinational corporations and ordinary people. Initially, post-imperial aid relied on imperial infrastructure and knowledge. In the 1960s, organizations such as Oxfam used former Imperial experts to manage and distribute global relief in places like Nigeria. Older imperial institutions like the British military became major respondents to disasters in the Sahel and South Asia. But the post- imperial landscape also included new, more business-minded actors.
