This volume traces the complex reasons behind the disturbing
discrepancy between the health and well-being of children in
mainstream Australia and those in remote Indigenous communities.
Invaluably informed by Boulton's close working knowledge of
Aboriginal communities, the book addresses growth faltering as a
crisis of Aboriginal parenting and a continued problem for the
Australian nation. The high rate and root causes of ill-health
amongst Aboriginal children are explored through a unique synthesis
of historical, anthropological, biological and medical analyses.
Through this fresh approach, which includes the insights of
specialists from a range of disciplines, Aboriginal Children,
History and Health provides a thoughtful and innovative framework
for considering Indigenous health.

In the year 1193, murder and treachery stalk the lush hills and
valleys of England. James Dunreith, branded a sorceror and exiled
from his homeland, returns to reclaim his birthright. Pressed into
the service of Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine, a faery and mortal both,
Dunreith must uncover those who plot against the crown even if they
were once the closest of allies. Yet great danger awaits...
Aurora Leigh (1856), Elizabeth Barrett Browning's epic novel in blank verse, tells the story of the making of a woman poet, exploring 'the woman question', art and its relation to politics and social oppression. The texts in this selection are based in the main on the earliest printed versions of the poems. What Edgar Allan Poe called 'her wild and magnificent genius' is abundantly in evidence. In addition to Aurora Leigh, this volume contains poetry from the several volumes of Elizabeth Barrett Browning's published poetry from 1826 to 1862, including Casa Guidi Windows (1851), Songs for the Ragged Schools of London (1854) and the British Library manuscript text of the 'Sonnets from the Portuguese' (1846) which records her courtship with Robert Browning.
Popular conservative blogger Pamela Geller and New York Times
bestselling author Robert Spencer sound a wake-up call for
Americans to stop the Obama administration from limiting our
hard-won freedoms, silencing our democratic voices, and harming
America for generations to come--now available in paperback.
America is being tested in a way that she has never been tested
before. Since taking the oath of office in January 2009, President
Barack Obama has cheered our enemies and demoralized our allies. He
is hard at work "remaking" America by destroying the free-market
system and nationalizing major segments of our economy, demonizing
dissent and restricting freedom of speech, turning against our
longtime friends, and above all, subjecting us to the
determinations of foreign authorities. In this timely and urgent
battle cry, Pamela Geller, founder of the widely popular website
AtlasShrugs.com, and bestselling author Robert Spencer team up to
expose the Obama administration's destructive agenda--largely
ignored by the mainstream media--and rally Americans to protect the
sovereignty of a country that is under siege. Geller and Spencer
critically examine the Obama administration's ominous and revealing
moves against our basic freedoms, particularly as he seizes control
of the three engines of the American economy: health care, energy,
and education. "The Post-American Presidency" is a vital guide to
helping conservatives prepare for the tough battles ahead.
