  South America’s Economy delves into the dramatic rises, falls, and reinventions of four major economies: Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and Venezuela. This 4-in-1 collection offers a sweeping view of a continent shaped by political upheaval, resource wealth, policy experiments, and the constant push-pull between growth and crisis. From hyperinflation to privatization, oil booms to currency collapses, this volume captures the complexity and volatility of the region’s economic story. 
  Argentina’s economic crises highlight the consequences of policy missteps and external shocks, revealing how a once-thriving nation became a case study in recurring collapse. Brazil’s economic evolution shows a journey through industrialization, reform, and global integration, alongside persistent inequality and corruption. Colombia’s transformation tells a story of resilience—rising from the shadows of conflict to emerge as a growing economy with expanding global ties. Finally, Venezuela presents perhaps the most extreme example of economic meltdown in recent memory, offering crucial lessons about dependency, mismanagement, and populism. 
  Whether you’re a student, global observer, or simply curious about South America’s economic puzzle, this book provides both historical depth and modern relevance to help you understand the region's shifting fortunes.

  And No Birds Sang

  Farley Mowat

  Turned away from the Royal Canadian Air Force for his apparent youth and frailty, Farley Mowat joined the infantry in 1940. The young second lieutenant soon earned the trust of the soldiers under his command, and was known to bend army rules to secure a stout drink, or find warm—if non-regulation—clothing. But when Mowat and his regiment engaged with elite German forces in the mountains of Sicily, the optimism of their early days as soldiers was replaced by despair. With a naturalist's eyes and ears, Mowat takes in the full dark depths of war—and his moving account of military service, and the friends he left behind, is also a plea for peace. It is one of the most searing and unforgettable World War II memoirs from any Canadian.

  Together We Can - 33 Marathons...

  Peter Baines OAM

  Together We Can is the inspiring story of an amazing feat. On 1st of December 2024, at the age of 58, Peter Baines set off in the extreme heat and humidity from the north of Thailand to run 1400km over 26 days, averaging 60kms per day. Peter's goal was to raise $1 million. Peter Baines had been a leading forensic investigator with the NSW Police before he was deployed to Bali in 2002 after the bombings, and then to Thailand after the Boxing Day tsunami. It was during the aftermath of the tsunami that Peter started the Hands Across the Water charity. The biggest impact upon Peter during his work in Thailand was meeting a group of Thai children orphaned by the tsunami. Returning to Australia, Baines made a commitment to support these 32 children who were living in the tent in the grounds of a Buddhist temple. The initial objective of the Hands Across the Water was to build a home for these children, and it was this first home that marked the finishing line of the Run to Remember, exactly 20 years to the day of the tsunami. Together We Can is not a story of one man s 20-year commitment to children and communities in need. Nor is it simply a story of physical achievement the likes of which many simply cannot comprehend. It is the celebration of what can be achieved together. It is the celebration of the best of humanity, through what were often the most difficult times.One of the main learnings from this incredible feat of endurance (running the equivalent of 33 marathons in 26 days) was that although Peter was the only person who completed the run, it took a team to get him across the finishing line. The lessons are invaluable for businesses, organisations and sports teams and it is these lessons that remain with Peter (and hopefully the reader) long after the blisters have healed.
