"This book is a collection of images from my home town of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. I am a 4th generation Melbournian and I love this city. These images are the results of many hundreds of kilometres of walking the streets looking for those perfect angles. Usually I would spend 5 to 6 hours walking, ending up with blisters most days, to find an angle that I liked. Then I would make a note of the location and which way the sun rose or set on the scene and come back when the light was right. Then I would arrive at the scene well ahead of the light I wanted, set up and wait patiently. But of course sometimes the shots just didn't work, for example a person might walk into the shot and decide to start watching the sunset just at the moment of pressing the shutter. Or I might wait all day to get a shot of Federation Square, take the tram into the city only to find that there is construction set up in my scene. Such is the life of a landscape photographer. Hope you enjoy these images."--Cover.

Asian Alterity is an interdisciplinary theoretical analysis that vigorously contests the homogeneity of the mainstream Eurocentric values. Part I argues for the need for an alternate perspective to be introduced so as to understand the diversity of Asia's cultural differences at their varied development stages and to meet the complex challenges of the explosive urban expansion and disruptive changes in traditional cultures and lifestyles.Part II of the book consists of nine case studies of Asian major urban cities by well-established academic writers and urban theorists. Each author presents diverse aspects of urban dynamism. The case studies will collectively demonstrate a broad framework to understand the essentiality of the interdisciplinary mode of Cultural Studies as an important lens towards meeting the challenges in Asian Architecture and Urbanism.Highlights of the book:

About the practices and politics of place and identity formation – the slippery ways in which who we are becomes wrapped up with where we are – this book exposes the relations of place to power. It links everyday aspects of place experience to the social theories of Deleuze and Bourdieu in a very readable manner. This is a book that takes the social critique of built form another step through detailed fieldwork and analysis in particular case studies. Through a broad range of case studies from nationalist monuments and new urbanist suburbs to urban laneways and avant garde interiors, questions are explored such as: What is neighborhood character? How do squatter settlements work and does it matter what they look like? Can architecture liberate? How do monuments and public spaces shape or stabilize national identity?

Migration, Citizenship and Intercultural Relations reflects on the tensions and contradictions that arise within debates on social inclusion, arguing that both the concept of social inclusion and policy surrounding it need to incorporate visions of citizenship that value ethnic diversity. Presenting the latest empirical research from Australia and engaging with contemporary global debates on questions of identity, citizenship, intercultural relations and social inclusion, this book unsettles fixed assumptions about who is included as a valued citizen and explores the possibilities for engendering inclusive visions of citizenship in local, national and transnational spaces. Organised around the themes of identity, citizenship and intercultural relations, this interdisciplinary collection sheds light on the role that ethnic diversity can play in fostering new visions of inclusivity and citizenship in a globalised world.

Three women, three voices, three generations: the Silbery family share their most personal memories and lessons learned. You know them as Isabelle, Kerry and Emmie Silbery from Foxtel and Channel 10 series Gogglebox, in which they give their thoughts on the week's TV highlights and show what a supportive and loving family they are. In Out Of The Box, these strong, independent women open up like never before, sharing intensely personal stories and considered opinions on the female experience — and how that has changed during their lifetimes. Infidelity, grief, motherhood, money, feminism, body hair... no topic is off limits. The book will inspire mothers and daughters to start talking and sharing — to have the conversations that will bring them closer together. Delving deep beneath the surface we see on our screens, this memoir is equal parts moving, hilarious and devastating as Isabelle, Kerry and Emmie talk about moments in their lives that their legion of fans would have never expected. Personal struggles, family heartache and plenty of sex, there is much more to the Silberys than meets the eye. Through it all, we get an even greater sense of how close and connected these mothers and daughters are. Like any other family, they don't see eye to eye on everything, but no matter what, their love for each other always triumphs.

In the midst of partial, competing, and often hostile forms of human solidarity, David Bosch challenged the church to be the Alternative Community called to live in the in-between of various opposing socio-political, economic, and ecclesiastical polarities. Girma Bekele explores and renews that call in the context of Ethiopia. Acute poverty and the lingering question of the balance between ethnic distinctiveness and national unity, together constitute a two-edged challenge to Christian identity. Constructive dialogue that fosters unity is intrinsic to effective response to the plight of the poor. This means a turning away from institutional self-preservation towards a contextually relevant mission that crosses all human-made frontiers. Taking Ethiopia as the immediate context, Dr. Bekele offers important insight to the church in the majority world and beyond.

Following on from the dubious, but resounding, success of Lolly Scramble, comedian Tony Martin returns with another collection of tales from his life outside show business. Outrageous coincidences, disgraceful errors of judgement, ancient family disputes and misguided attempts to impress women are just part of the story. You'll be both amused and appalled as Martin establishes his own junior detective agency, discovers that his parents are censoring bare breasts from the National Geographic, has his braces repossessed by the government, ruins several plays in an attempt to find a girlfriend, gets caught two-timing his local video shop, mars an awards night with a burst of foul language, attends a racist dinner at an Indian restaurant, allows cameras to enter his every bodily orifice, and returns to his hometown to discover that his grandfather is not the man he thought he was. A Nest of Occasionals is a series of supersize set pieces from a life lived in miniature. But what does the title mean? There's only one way to find out.
