Evaluates the implementation of affirmative action programs for women in Australian, Canadian, and New Zealand sporting organizations.
This book is a comparative history of the development of ideas about nature, particularly of the importance of native nature in the Anglo settler countries of the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. It examines the development of natural history, settlers' adaptations to the end of expansion, scientists' shift from natural history to ecology, and the rise of environmentalism. Addressing not only scientific knowledge but also popular issues from hunting to landscape painting, this book explores the ways in which English-speaking settlers looked at nature in their new lands.
Challenges the convenient way in which white Australians have often 'forgotten' indigenous people from the 1950s onwards. This book talks about the work of many well-known Aboriginal artists, writers and performers, including Gordon Bennett, Destiny Deacon, Fiona Foley, Tracey Moffatt, Tony Birch, Kim Scott and Alexis Wright.
