All The World Dr Byrne's Magnificent Stage
The hero, Jeremy Brightside, presents himself to the greatest stage of all - the world stage . . . Billy Byrne writes with the assurance and humour rarely seen in the sombre medicinal arena creating this intelligent character whose only dependable trait is his unpredictability.

First Novel Plot is Highly Entertaining
Billy Byrne's first hand knowledge of the medical world adds to the book's realism.
- City Tribune

Acting On Munchausen's
Dr Billy Byrne . . . uses in a light-hearted and often quite hilarious way, the antics of his central character, Jeremy Brightside, to illustrate the nature of Munchausen's Syndrome, which he does with considerable aplomb. Foolish Notions is a good read and would be the perfect Christmas present for your favourite heart-sink patient.

Living Out A Foolish Notion
 . . . a picaresque novel which pokes excellent fun at institutional medicine, especially psychiatry, the police and the law, and generally at social attitudes to 'mental illness'.
- Sunday Business Post

 . . . the characters are eminently likeable.
- Irish Times

Not a foot put wrong in design or production.
