Plants of the Kimberley Region of Western Australia
For many years Plants of the Kimberley Region of Western Australia has been an important resource for pastoral managers and rangeland advisors in managing vegetation and land issues. This revised edition includes changes to 50 plant names, and also updates the introductory sections about the Kimberley region and the principles of rangeland management. The 240 species covered in the book are organized in three sections: grasses and herbs, shrubs, and trees, and constitute a unique flora not dealt with in any other single text. With its straightforward text and excellent photographs, this book is a valuable reference for students of ecology and range science as well as appealing to nature-lovers, conservationists and travelers in the Kimberley region.
The Languages of the Kimberley, Western Australia
The Kimberley, the far north-west of Australia, is one of the most linguistically diverse regions of the continent. Some fifty-five Aboriginal languages belonging to five different families are spoken within its borders. Few of these languages are currently being passed on to children, most of whom speak Kriol (a new language that arose about half a century ago from an earlier Pidgin English) or Aboriginal English (a dialect of English) as their mother tongue and usual language of communication. This book describes the Aboriginal languages spoken today and in the recent past in this region.
