Snapshots of the Past, by Brian Fagan. Alta Mira Press (Sage Publications). Walnut Creek, CA, 1995
No full textBrian Fagan is well known for his archaeology books written for a
general public as well as his textbooks. This book is a collection of his articles
originally published as bimonthly 'Timelines' columns in Archaeology Magazine. As he
states in the preface of the book, his articles were meant to entertain, inform and
sometimes wax indignant on a wide variety of archaeological subjects. His intent was to make available to a wide audience short stories that "navigated
through the maze of detailed and specialized literature, creating snapshots of
archaeology, archaeologists, and our complex, multifaceted past." The collection of 27
articles he chose for the book were published between 1988 and 1995; in addition, Fagan
wrote two new articles for the book (one on prehistoric art and the other on the lives
of Egyptian townspeople), for a total 29 articles

Book Review – Flann O’Brien: Gallows Humour, edited by Ruben Borg and Paul Fagan
No full textBrian O’Nolan aka Flann O’Brien, one of the most prominent Irish literary figures of twentieth century liteture, is not an easy read for one not clued into modern Irish history. Analysing O’Brien’s work, from the complex lens of gallows humour, is thus an extremely challenging task. The task taken up by Borg and Fagan is to map O’Brien’s acutely perplexing sense of humour and make it more accessible to a wider audience

The Music of 1968: Part 1 (Music Show with Andrew Ford, ABC Radio National, 12 May 2018)
No full textThis is a special episode of The Music Show with Andrew Ford, ABC Radio National. It was first broadcast on 12 May 2018 and has since been repeat broadcast many times. 1968 was time of radical student protest: from Paris and London, to Dakar in Senegal, Prague, Chicago, Mexico City, Tokyo and of course here in Australia and it marked a seismic shift in the way we think about culture, identity and politics. On the 50th anniversary, across the network RN explored the legacy and experience of 1968. The Music Show explored some of the most significant musical milestones during the year with a panel that included theatre maker and composer Felix Cross; poet, musician and academic Kate Fagan; and Brian Ritchie from Violent Femmes and curator of the Mona Foma festival in Hobart
Real-time safety inspection and planning: A first application of the Fagan nomogram
No full textThe Fagan nomogram is a graphical tool used for clinical diagnosis/treatment. Considering the similarities between safety inspections and disease diagnosis, this study set out to apply the Fagan nomogram to construction sites with a goal of improving real-time safety inspection/planning. First, the basic principle of the Fagan nomogram was analyzed to determine its applicability. Then, the quantitative relationships between related risks were calculated using the Fagan nomogram. Subsequently, the results were compared with those obtained by Bayesian parameter estimation. A case study was then undertaken to enhance the understanding of its usage and the results were validated through a focus-group interview. As a result, the Fagan nomogram was proven to be an effective method for quantifying the causal relationships and risk probability for safety risks, making it a new, simple, and accurate graphical approach for future real-time safety inspections and planning on a construction site.The accepted manuscript in pdf format is listed with the files at the bottom of this page.
