    Hedy Lamarr: The Life and Legacy...

    During the first half of the 20th century, American crowds developed a fascination with foreign actors whose native accents lent an enhanced air of mystery to their on-screen personae. Greta Garbo, Ingrid Bergman, and Marlene Dietrich, all European-born, ruled at the box office. Amid their prolific careers stood the curious case of Hedy Lamarr, acclaimed as the most beautiful star of her time, and living with a professional pastime that looms large in the modern day as new information technology emerges. 	The “Big Five” movie studios all have roots in these years, including Universal Studios, Paramount, Warner Brothers, Columbia, and even Disney. In the early days, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer was created in a merger between Metro, belonging to Marcus Loew, one owned by Louis B. Mayer, and a third enterprise resulting in the still-famous logo of the MGM lion. In the United States and overseas, agents and studio heads were on the lookout for talent, and Western agents flooded Europe searching for the next foreign heartthrob. 
    	In an age less socially sensitive to matters of gender, the Austrian-born Lamarr, then hailed as “the most beautiful woman in the world,” dared to possess a daunting intellect and the mind of a scientist. For the cinematic peddlers of escapist on-screen seduction, such a problematic reality required total public suppression. As such, people are only now becoming aware of Lamarr’s scientific designs that led to the development of the globe’s most ubiquitous communications network, the internet, mobile phones, GPS, and Bluetooth, not to mention military and satellite technologies. Much of Lamarr’s early life and the seeming paradox of it was well-documented in Richard Rhodes Hedy’s Folly: The Life and Breakthrough Inventions of Hedy Lamarr, the Most Beautiful Woman in the World.

    It is always too soon to quit! What is your story that has you searching for a book about tragedy? The surprise you are facing probably has a different name than Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. The cure you need or long for may not exist or be as invasive as a lung transplant.  Tragedies come in all different “shapes and sizes,” but they share two common traits. They are personal, and that person needs hope.  
    This book will help you or a loved one find hope in the midst of the tragedy. It is a story of not giving up, and discovering answers all along the journey of your life. Finding hope may be the hardest challenge you face. It is found in a combination of surprising events,  loving friends/family, and “just enough” faith that weave together in unexpected ways. It doesn’t matter what uninvited surprise has invaded your story, there is always hope!

    An investigation into the failings of Australia's mental healthcare system, grounded in a personal story of a mother–daughter relationshipJournalist Elfy Scott grew up in a household where her mother's schizophrenia was rarely, if ever, spoken about. They navigated this silence outside the family home too; for many years, this complex mental health condition was treated as an open secret.Over the past two decades, we have started talking more about common mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. But complex conditions like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and psychosis have been left behind, as have many of the people who live with these conditions or who care for them.Part memoir, part deep-dive investigation, The One Thing We've Never Spoken About is filled with rage at how our nation's public discourse, emergency services and healthcare systems continue to fail so many people. It is also a work of care, telling the little-heard stories of people who live with these conditions and work at the front lines of mental health. Above all, this timely, compelling book is informed by hope and courage, breaking down taboos and asking big questions about vulnerability, justice and duty of care.‘Expansive and generous … brimming with kindness, revelatory accounts and wit. The book itself is a thing of grace.' Rick Morton‘Elfy brings empathy, reason and generosity to a book Australia so desperately needs.' Zara McDonald‘Absorbing and mind-opening, this is panoramic in scope, while offering a deeply intimate portrait of fierce familial love and care.' Benjamin Law
