This is a scholarly family history that traces the origins of the four branches of the Selleck family, looking back from the author's generation to the arrival in Melbourne of his great grandparents between the late 1840s and through the 1850s. Of the four branches, the Wheelers, Brays and Creedons have their origins firmly anchored in an Irish heritage, while the Sellecks trace their origins to the south-west of England. The book is deeply contextualized in the historical, moral and political milieus of the times that it covers, and explores the lives, loves and losses of family members through to the author's generation. It is a thorough and professional work based squarely in the tradition of family history writing; however, it shows the deft hand and lyrical touch of an author who has spent his life clarifying and illuminating the history of education in this country. It is the last academic work of RJW Selleck, the eminent professor of the history of education, and adds to his significant oeuvre.

This book examines the rise of religious extremism in Pakistan, particularly since 1947, and analyzes its connections to the Pakistani army's corporate interests and U.S.-Pakistan relations. It includes profiles of leading Pakistani militant groups with details of their origins, development, and capabilities. The author begins with an historical overview of the introduction of Islam to the Indian sub-continent in 712 AD, and brings the story up to the present by describing President Musharraf's handling of the war on terror. He provides a detailed account of the political developments in Pakistan since 1947 with a focus on the influence of religious and military forces. He also discusses regional politics, Pakistan's attempt to gain nuclear power status, and U.S.-Pakistan relations, and offers predictions for Pakistan's domestic and regional prospects.
