Western Fundamentalism
In this book Dr Gordon Menzies invites us to examine the freedoms we seek through democracy, market economics and sex. These freedoms are so fundamental to our thinking that we don't even question them, yet they determine much of how we see the world and shape it. Are you prepared to challenge your fundamentals?

Australia's Prime Ministers
Since Australia's first Federal election, in 1901, the contest for the Prime Ministership has come to resemble the presidential-style elections of the United States. Of Australia's 25 Prime Ministers, some have towered over their party, Parliament and the national political scene in just the same way as some American presidents have. This book tells the story of every one of them.
