footsteps of her charismatic friend Vanessa, who is living
extravagantly among the elite in Monaco. She hopes that the

conceal their wealth and taking increasingly perilous risks for her
bullying boss. When Vanessa's actions have an unexpected effect on
her son, her life-long belief in putting money first is challenged.
Meanwhile, Kate is deeply drawn under the corrupting influence of
those around her. But what is she willing to do to keep the rich
new life she has found? Amidst the opulence of the Côte D'Azur,
Bay of Thieves explores the distorting power of wealth and its
ability to destroy beliefs held over a lifetime.

We leave base camp and start our trek across this vast country. We
invite you to walk with us in a movement of the Australian people
for a better future. On 26 May 2017, after a historic process of
consultation, the Uluru Statement from the Heart was read out. This
clear and urgent call for reform to the community from Aboriginal
and Torres Strait Islander peoples asked for the establishment of a
First Nations Voice to Parliament protected in the constitution and
a process of agreement-making and truth-telling. Voice. Treaty.
Truth. What was the journey to this point? What do Australians need
to know about the Uluru Statement from the Heart? And how can these
reforms be achieved? Everything You Need to Know about the Uluru
Statement from the Heart, written by Megan Davis and George
Williams, two of Australia's best-known constitutional experts, is
essential reading on how our Constitution was drafted, what the
1967 referendum achieved, and the lead-up and response to the Uluru
Statement. Importantly, it explains how the Uluru Statement offers
change that will benefit the whole nation.
In "I'm in Charge!" we created four children with typical
characteristics to show how you can be in charge even if your child
is hyperactive, has learning challenges, is strong willed or
sensitive. All of them have really great parents who are feeling
lost and are finding new ways to help their children. They use the
basics of the PPC Program-Coaching Strategies, Executive Functions
of the Brain, Basics of the Brain, Developmental Stages and
Temperament. The book highlights four challenging areas of
parenting; Morning Madness, Homework Hassle, Dreaded Dinner Time
and Bedtime Battles.
A comprehensive guide to determine whether your child may have
Sensory issues and how to handle those respective issues.
This is the remarkable war story of six ordinary Australian
soldiers: the Chipilly Six. On 9 August 1918, on high ground
overlooking the Somme River, an entire British Army Corps is held
up by German machine gunners. The battle has raged for 30 hours and
more than 2000 Englishmen have fallen, for no gain. Meanwhile, two
Australian sergeants, Jack Hayes and Harold Andrews, go absent
without leave and cross the Somme ahead of the British lines.
Gathering weapons and four of their best mates, Hayes and Andrews
return to take on the Germans. The extraordinary feats of the
Chipilly Six have been overlooked and the personal stories of these
diggers never before celebrated. Yet this story doesn't end when
the war does. Historian Lucas Jordan weaves a compelling tale of
the lives of these soldiers, chronicling their return home and
years after service, through a pandemic, the Great Depression,
another world war and the very first Anzac Day dawn service.

a more sustainable home kitchen, reduce your carbon footprint and

Studies of the radical environmental politics of the 1960s have
tended to downplay the extent to which much of that countercultural
intellectual and social ferment continued into the 1970s and 1980s.
Canadian Countercultures and the Environment adds to our knowledge
of this understudied period. This collection contributes a
sustained analysis of the beginning of major environmental debates
in this era and examines a range of issues related to broad
environmental concerns, topics which emerged as key concerns in the
context of Cold War military investments and experiments, the oil
crisis of the 1970s, debates over gendered roles, and the
increasing attention to urban pollution and pesticide use. No other
publication dealing with this period covers the wide range of
environmental topics (among others, activism, midwifery, organic
farming, recycling, urban cycling, and communal living) or
geographic locales, from Yukon to Atlantic Canada. Together, they
demonstrate how this period influenced and informed environmental
action and issues in ways that have had a long-term impact on
Canadian society.
The definitive, clear-cut guide to the vote on recognising
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in the Constitution.
This book explains everything Australians need to know about the
proposal to recognise Indigenous peoples in the Constitution. With
clarity and authority, it shows the symbolic and legal power of
such a change and how we might get there. It explains what the 1967
referendum - in which over 90 per cent of Australians voted to
delete discriminatory references to Aboriginal people from
theConstitution - achieved, and why the Constitution still permits
people to be discriminated against on the basis of their race.
Concise and clear, and written by two of the country's foremost
legal experts, it is essential reading on what will be a landmark
moment for the nation.
