Synopsis

"New Guinea" explores the intricate history of an island shaped by ancient tribal customs, colonial influences, and World War II. The book delves into the island's profound tribal diversity, the impact of colonial rule by German, British, and Australian powers, and its strategic role during global conflicts. It reveals how New Guinea's unique blend of isolation and global interaction makes its history essential for understanding cultural resilience and the legacies of colonialism.

The book begins by laying the historical and cultural groundwork, examining the origins and evolution of New Guinea's diverse tribal groups and their adaptability. It then meticulously details the arrival and impact of European colonial powers, focusing on their administrative policies and the resistance movements that emerged.

Transitioning to World War II, the book examines the strategic battles fought on New Guinea's rugged terrain and the devastating impact on the indigenous population. This approach highlights the island's often overlooked significance in geopolitical strategy.

Concluding with an assessment of New Guinea's post-colonial development, the book adopts a multidisciplinary approach by integrating historical analysis with anthropological, political, and environmental perspectives. By weaving together historical accounts, anthropological insights, and military analyses, the book constructs a holistic view of this complex region. It challenges conventional narratives and offers a nuanced account of New Guinea's history.

The Benediction of Meditation -...

Jiddu Krishnamurti

"The benediction of meditation - 17 November 1968 
• We shall explore together into this life, existence, in which is included 
relationship, love and death, not merely as a phenomenon but as something tremendously significant, to be cherished, deeply lived. Meditation is the approach to this problem of living. 
• It is only a free mind that is capable of attention in which there is no achieving or losing or fear. It is only a quiet, attentive mind that can understand this immense problem of living. It is only the quiet, meditative mind that can come upon what is called love. 
• What is living? 
• The observer cannot possibly do anything about envy because he is the cause 
and the effect. Whatever he does with regard to envy is still envy. 
• What does it mean to die, knowing the organism comes to an end? What does it 
mean to die psychologically, inwardly?"

Radical Brown - Keeping the...

Nancy E. Dowd, Margaret Beale...

In Radical Brown, renowned developmental scholar Margaret Beale Spencer and critical legal analyst Nancy E. Dowd offer a fresh perspective on the Brown v. Board of Education decision. Noting that decades of flawed implementation have subverted Brown's great promise of educational equality for K–12 public school students, Spencer and Dowd propose a bold framework for a new interpretation of the Supreme Court decision, one that is inclusive, identity affirming, and culturally sensitive. 
 
 
 
Even as they envision a more equitable future for US students, Spencer and Dowd look critically at the historical context of Brown v. Board of Education, examining the roots of the inequality and segregation the ruling attempted to address, the resistance that the resulting school integration met, and the legacy of attempts to enforce the ruling. They trace the ways in which post-Brown policies have reinforced race privilege for white students and race subordination for Black and marginalized students and show how structural and cultural racism in education have impeded youth development and caused collective identity injury for all. 
 
 
 
Radical Brown offers suggestions for action to help legislators, school boards, scholars, and educators correct course and enact the decision's true intent—of safeguarding rights based on a common humanity.

The One Thing We've Never Spoken...

Elfy Scott

An investigation into the failings of Australia’s mental healthcare system, grounded in a personal story of a mother–daughter relationship 
 
Journalist 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
