You hold in your hand a passport to relationship success. You hold in your hand a ticket to the next two rungs on the corporate ladder. In your hand rests slavish attention from interesting strangers at the next weekend barbecue. You are now clinging tightly to the key to letting sunshine into your often bleak winters. How so? Australians are obsessed with sport. We live in a country where space, climate and the elements have conspired over the years to have us, well some of us, run about outside chasing and kicking things and each other. By and large, we are a physical people. And, brilliantly, with the current wall-to-wall television coverage of sport, we can also get our exercise by pushing the button of a remote control from the safety of the lounge. And it is the four major football codes that have us most obsessed; that personify our Australian-ness, yet also challenge the unity of our sports church. In summer, from Darwin to the Derwent, from Sydney to Subiaco, we all smear green-and-gold zinc on our dials and bellow for another pounding of English cricketers. We are as one. Yet in winter, our tribal nature emerges, like so much sun-deprived pale skin. Not only do we clan up to support our own team, we embrace a single code of footy and build a wall to keep out the invading enemy hordes. In recent years, though, blinkers have begun to drop from our eyes and exposure to all codes has resulted, as they continue to build national footprints. And so it is that even passionate fans can find themselves watching games featuring Lions, Dragons, Storms, Forces, Hurricanes, Jets, Mariners, Crusaders, Bulldogs, Swans, Magpies, Highlanders, Broncos and Glory, and struggle to work out who is running stupidly fast into whom. It can be confusing. Imagine, then, the despair of the partner to the rabid sports fan. Imagine the nervous rash emerging on the aspiring business partner invited to the corporate box to watch a game she's never understood. We have moved on from a mono-codal culture. Many people in this country are now unashamedly bi-codal. This book will help you to become so much more poly-codal.

At some point in every teacher's career they will encounter the `hard class' and from day one the countdown to the end of the day, term and year is on in earnest. But as demanding as it may be, a difficult class does not have to dominate and permeate through all waking moments. Bill Rogers, in Cracking the Hard Class, highlights many practical strategies that can be implemented to overcome the hard class syndrome. These include: identifying what makes a class `hard'; developing a class behaviour plan; developing colleague support; following up on disruptive students; changing patterns of bad behaviour; assisting relief teachers and the hard class. As well as constructive ideas and strategies, Cr

The story of the creation of Britain's national game has often been told. According to the accepted wisdom, the refined football games created by English public schools in the 1860s subsequently became the sports of the masses. Football, The First Hundred Years, provides a revisionist history of the game, challenging previously widely-accepted beliefs. Harvey argues that established football history does not correspond with the facts. Football, as played by the 'masses' prior to the adoption of the public school codes is almost always portrayed as wild and barbaric. This view may require considerable modification in the light of Harvey's research. Football's First One Hundred Years provides a very detailed picture of the football played outside the confines of the public schools, revealing a culture that was every bit as sophisticated and influential as that found within their prestigious walls. Football, The First Hundred Years sets forth a completely revisionist thesis, offering a different perspective on almost every aspect of the established history of the formative years of the game. The book will be of great interest to sports historians and football enthusiasts alike.

This book traces the tumultuous events in the year 1968 though the eyes of a twenty year-old who lived through it. This was the year when it became clear that the vietnam War would be lost by America and its allies. The assassinations of Martin Luther KIng and Robert Kennedy, the violent clashes of protestors in Paris and at the Democratic presidential convention in Chicago and the urban protests unleashed throughout the West, culminating in the violence and black power controversy at the Mexico Olympics was the defining year in the lives of the early baby boomer generation.
