  On how our sense of balance has defined us as a nation and will safeguard our future. 
    
  In the years that John Howard served in the national parliament he came to understand the special character of Australia; to appreciate its strengths and weaknesses; and most importantly to respect the sense of balance in the formulation of public policy that has long defined us as a nation and made Australia an attractive destination for people from across the world. 
  In this book he explores this balance, its foundations and its future. Written against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as some of the more contested political events of recent years - the election of Donald Trump, the Brexit vote, the rise of China, and, within our own country, a carousel of six prime ministers in eleven years - these reflections touch on how Australia has responded to pressure over the last decade or so. Commentary on these subjects from politicians, opinion writers and social media can sometimes seem shrill and divisive. Australia's 25th and second longest serving prime minister has faith that no matter what challenges and extremes threaten to upset our sense of balance, the country's institutions and people will remain robust into the foreseeable future. 
  PRAISE 
  'John Howard's ongoing and important contribution to this country continues with his latest laser sharp book, A Sense of Balance. No former leader understands the Australian character better than our 25th Prime Minister' Janet Albrechtsen, columnist

  Breaking Your Bubble - Return to...

  REALIGN YOUR LIFESTYLE TO YOUR NATURAL DESIGN 
  Break the fast-expanding bubble created by today’s new culture. Your modern lifestyle, enforced by the toxic cultural bubble, does not match your natural, inherited design and even acts against it. 
  The rapid progress of modern science and technology has provided us with incredible capabilities, yet it has also brought us more ways to harm ourselves. The toxicity of the bubble comes only in part from unnatural, artificial, harmful chemicals in our food and environment. Worse, it encourages us to replace healthy, good habits with new, harmful ones. 
  This mismatch between our lifestyle and our design, which humanity did not see until a few decades ago, is damaging our physical and mental health. It creates weakness and unnecessary suffering. It is the root cause of most chronic diseases today, which are increasing rapidly, even in the young. From the water we drink and the way we eat to how we give birth nowadays, many things have changed for the worse. 
  Aided by technological advances, our culture is resetting the values of previous generations and disconnecting us from who we are, from nature, and from our ancestors' wisdom. This greatly amplifies our self-destructive, natural human inclination to abuse and damage ourselves and others. But it doesn’t need to be this way anymore. 
  I provide step-by-step instructions on how to successfully detox and achieve true, complete health—physical, mental, and spiritual. I explain why so many modern diets work temporarily but fail to succeed long-term and show you how to overcome this issue.  
  Only you can harness your almost unlimited inner resources to steer yourself out of the damaging bubble and onto the road of health and purpose. Are you ready to break your bubble?

  Mumbai - A Million Islands

  Since the East India Company merged seven islands into Bombay (now Mumbai), change has been constant-but now it is used as a weapon for displacement, disguised as development. Slums are erased overnight to make way for luxury towers priced in tens of crores. The working class is pushed to the margins-literally-and into distant housing projects with no infrastructure, transport or sanitation. Entire communities are uprooted while a new Mumbai is built for the privileged few, behind closed gates, inside glass walls. 
  Sidharth Bhatia's Mumbai: A Million Islands is a piercing look at a city in the throes of relentless transformation. What is vanishing is not just space, but memory, history and the very fabric of a living city. Mumbai's famed spirit of survival is being tested like never before. Where the original seven islands had symbolized a synergy, today they're multiplying as fractures-social, spatial and economic-splitting the city into a million islands, each more isolated than the other.
