Sinopsis

Tasmania Extinction explores the tragic, intertwined fates of the Tasmanian Tiger (Thylacine) and the indigenous Palawa people, arguing that their demise stemmed from the same roots of colonial violence and ecological destruction. The book uncovers unsettling parallels in how both the Thylacine and the Palawa were perceived as impediments to colonial progress, leading to systematic persecution. For instance, a bounty system encouraged the killing of Thylacines, while the "Black War" aimed to eliminate the Palawa, revealing a shared ideology of domination.

 
Beginning with an introduction to the unique characteristics of the Thylacine and Palawa society, the book then develops a historical narrative, examining the policies and practices that led to the Thylacine's extermination and the near-eradication of the Palawa people, including forced relocations and reserves. It draws upon historical archives, government records, and oral histories to construct a multi-faceted account.

 
The book's value lies in its parallel analysis, revealing the underlying ideologies that fueled both tragedies and offering insights into contemporary environmental issues, reconciliation, and indigenous rights. This examination offers a crucial understanding of colonial dynamics and their lasting effects on both the environment and indigenous communities. By connecting ecological and social injustices, Tasmania Extinction challenges conventional narratives and highlights the urgent need for conservation and ethical engagement, providing practical considerations for a more sustainable and just future.

    “Secret Chambers and Hiding Places” is a collection of concealments and their uses, almost all within England, although a very few passages and chambers in continental Europe are mentioned, Jacobite hidey holes in Scotland, while the final chapter of the book covers Bonnie Prince Charlie’s wanderings around Scotland, among caves and other hiding places. Most chapters are devoted to historical events; such as the the seventeenth century persecution of roman catholics (with many large houses having specially constructed “priests’ holes”), or various unpopular monarchs and their hiding places. The text is scattered with legends and true stories, with occasional skeletons found, still hiding, long centuries after the searchers have left. The author describes hidden doors, passages, rooms and pits with enormous enthusiasm … and with considerable regret when he has to describe secret places lost to demolition or modernisation. You’ll wish you could wander the country, poking into the darkest recesses of every old house you find! (Summary by Peter Yearsley)

    Harness the power of the Enneagram to learn about yourself, maximize your strengths, and improve your relationships. Pronounced ENN-EE-UH-GRAM, stemming from the Greek words ennea (nine) and grammos (a written symbol), the Enneagram is a centuries-old categorization tool that classifies human personalities into nine interconnected personality types.  Through in-depth descriptions and discussion, learn how to assess how you think, feel, and experience life, so that you can correctly identify which of the nine types you are.  Type 1: The Improver/Reformer/Perfectionist (Life Strategy: “I must be perfect and do what is right.”)  Type 2: The Helper/Giver/Befriender (Life Strategy: “I must be helping, caring, and needed.”)  Type 3: The Achiever/Performer/Motivator (Life Strategy: “I must be impressive and look accomplished and successful.”)  Type 4: The Individualist/Romantic/Artist (Life Strategy: “I must be understood uniquely as I am.”)  Type 5: The Investigator/Observer/Theorist (Life Strategy: “I must be knowledgeable and equipped.”)  Type 6: The Loyalist/Skeptic/Guardian (Life Strategy: “I must be secure and safe.”)  Type 7: The Enthusiast/Optimist/Epicurean (Life Strategy: “I must be enjoying myself and avoiding pain.”)  Type 8: The Challenger/Protector/Advocate (Life Strategy: “I must be strong and outside the control of others.”)  Type 9: The Peacemaker/Mediator/Reconciler (Life Strategy: “I must maintain peace and calm.”)  Authors Liz Carver and Josh Green, creators of the hugely popular Instagram account @justmyenneatype, help you discover how knowing your type—and the types of those around you—can affect your daily life, your decisions, and your relationships with others, and how to use this wisdom to live life with more clarity, peace, and insight than you ever thought possible.  So what’s your enneatype? Find out today and get started on the journey to better understand your world, yourself, and your place within it.
