Born on a farm in the 1920s, and growing up through the depression of the 1930s and the Second World War, Marie Weir traces her nine decades of change in a life lived to the full. Her many challenges and opportunities have been set against a background of huge social, health, economic and educational change, from the birth of the National Health Service through to the impact of the application of behavioural psychologies in the fields of youth justice and counselling.
