Originally published in 1980 at a time when the discipline of
sociology was still relatively young in Australia, The Inheritance
of Inequality is an important contribution to the study of social
mobility in Australia. The book is based on findings from a survey
of nearly 5,000 Australians who were interviewed about their family
backgrounds and occupational careers. In its scope and sample size,
the survey was unique among non-governmental Australian studies. It
went beyond the findings of earlier surveys, giving broader
understanding of social mobility and stratification. The book sets
out the processes by which Australians have found their place in
the world of work in the 20th Century. Factors tending to enhance
or frustrate attainment are identified and the degree to which
Australia is an egalitarian society is assessed.
The productivity of agricultural systems is the result of human
alteration of originally wild organisms over millennia. The
availability of germplasm, particularly from wild relatives of crop
plants, is vitally important in the development of new and improved
crops for both agriculture and horticulture. The handling of these
genetic resources for both immediate and future human benefits has
resulted in the decades of interdisciplinary scientific research
described in this book. The applications of this work and the
associated operational programmes in all parts of the world are
discussed in the light of their impact on the conservation of
biodiversity, ecosystem rehabilitation and the future health of our
planet.

Most guys spend their entire lives looking for ways to prove their
manhood. Some of their attempts are downright ridiculous. In a
culture steeped in passivity and addiction, many women make
horrific mistakes in the men they choose and pay dearly for it. But
how does a guy learn how to be a good man? How does a woman learn
to recognize him? What does manhood really look like? Chuck Holton,
former Army Ranger, Adventurer and international war correspondent,
has three men-in-training of his own. He also has two daughters who
will need to be able to recognize a good man someday. Over a
three-year period, Chuck made it his mission to nail down the
facets of a fully-engaged, functional man by seeking out timeless
wisdom of ancient cultures and the experience of dozens of mature
men. The result is a five step curriculum that is already changing
the lives of men and women around the world. It is being used by
church groups, schools and even single mothers to help their sons
to emulate - and daughters to identify - powerful, passionate,
engaged manhood. Memorize it. Teach it to your sons and daughters.
Apply its principles to your own life. The world desperately needs
your help making men.
