Join bestelling author and ABC Radio legend Ian 'Macca' McNamara as he travels Australia in his Say G'Day van to meet listeners across the country. When Ian 'Macca' McNamara decided to hit the road and meet some of the almost two million listeners who tune into his ABC Local Radio show each week, little did he know that his Say G'Day tour would become the experience of a lifetime. In two road trips across Australia, the hugely popular presenter of Australia All Over talked to and interviewed thousands of listeners of all ages singing songs, reciting poems, and reading letters, faxes and emails as he went. And when his Say G'day van rocked up in towns large and small and set up for his many outside broadcasts, it was standing room only. Macca describes it as 'Just the best time, visiting places I'd never been to and meeting wonderful Australians, and a great way to do a radio program' his producer Lee Kelly says the Say G'day tour was 'Like driving through a postcard'. SAY G'DAY captures all the best moments of the tour in words and pictures. Like the show, it is an eclectic and endearing mix of hundreds of anecdotes, personal stories, poems and snapshots of life across this vast continent. there's something here for everyone - plenty of humour, some great interviews and characters, and larrikin charm - a real celebration of the Aussie spirit. As a special bonus (and something Macca has always wanted to do) the book features a CD of some of his favourite interviews, including the legendary Gilbert Bennion.

Dark Emu puts forward an argument for a reconsideration of the hunter-gatherer tag for pre-colonial Aboriginal Australians. The evidence insists that Aboriginal people right across the continent were using domesticated plants, sowing, harvesting, irrigating and storing - behaviors inconsistent with the hunter-gatherer tag. Gerritsen and Gammage in their latest books support this premise but Pascoe takes this further and challenges the hunter-gatherer tag as a convenient lie. Almost all the evidence comes from the records and diaries of the Australian explorers, impeccable sources.

Australian music has a proud, colourful and successful history. In 2008, Australian rock and roll turned 50. This book names the best Australian albums of the last 50 years. It places each album in order (from 1 u 100) and discusses why each album deserves its place. It tells the story behind the making of the album, where the album fits in the artist's career and the album's impact on the local and world stage etc. The entries will feature new interviews with the artists and the producers/managers involved in the recording and the release of the album. It wouldn't be a good list if it didn't polarise people and we hope that this list will. We also hope that it will get people sitting around comparing their favourites and discovering or re-discovering these great albums and others. With 70 years of loving and writing about Australian music between us, we shamelessly believe we've earned the right to write this book. And we think we've got it right. Let the debate begin.o u John O'Donnell, April 2010 Finally, here is a much-needed list of argument-starting top 100 seminal/ influential/essential Australian albums of all time. Let the fight begin!

It is hard to see the big picture when you are a child, but then it is much easier to see the really small things insects, lichen, coloured leaves and tiny mushrooms. And it is fun to point out something that others can not see or do not even notice as they hurry past. This is an artful exploration of the bustling world of nature usually unseen and unobserved.

Mosquitoes are annoying, and can be deadly, but they can also be beautiful. A Guide to Mosquitoes of Australia explores the biodiversity of this fascinating group of insects. It provides a pictorial guide to almost 100 mosquito species and includes notes on their biology, habitats and association with disease. They are found in almost every type of environment, from pristine wetlands to polluted drains and from coastal saltmarshes to snow melt streams. Australia has a diverse range of mosquitoes and although relatively few pose a serious health risk, public health is an important issue. This book provides information on how to reduce the risk of mosquito-borne disease through tips on keeping your home free of mosquitoes and reducing their bites when you are out and about in the Australian environment.
