"The Boxing Butterfly is a career chronicle of Margaret Cunneen SC-the boxing butterfly who turned the tables on ICAC, amidst prosecuting murderers, pedophiles and rapists-as she launches into her new chapter as a defence barrister. In her rear view mirror, Cunneen sees her trial successes-her convictions-interspersed with the flak from the ground fire of some colleagues who resented her success and were determined to stop her climb to greater heights. She regrets nothing and is totally satisfied with what she does. As Madam Crown, she empathised with the victims and their families. Now, as defence counsel she empathises with the accused she defends. And what stories she tells! Some are gruesome and confronting, such as prosecuting the irreverent Skafs for gang rape, Robert 'Dolly' Dunn for pedophilia, the Butcher of Bega for unspeakable medical malpractice and the Charbaji Brothers for an ice-fuelled torture session that ended in murder. Others-especially relating to her defence clients, are filled with humanity and surprising moments of amusement, like the Chinese movie producer who couldn't speak English yet taught inmates chess while awaiting trial." --

Amuch-needed manual for navigating different cancer treatments for patients, family, friends, carers and survivors. Cancer is the world's biggest health problem, manifesting at an ever-increasing rate, and alongside the human cost is an enormous economic impact. With so much information available this detailed guide demystifies cancer treatment and highlights the rate of progress the scientific and medical communities are making in their understanding of cancer and, therefore, how best to treat it.

Authors Tim Ladhams and Jackey Coyle also explore living with cancer and how to build resilience after cancer treatment, with evidence-based tips for exercising, eating well, complementary treatments, sleeping better and simple recipes and ideas for maximizing nutrition during this time. Families and friends will find ways to support someone with cancer and improve quality of life with palliative care..

The latest hilarious collection of Rowan Dean's weekly satirical columns in the AFR Weekend poking fun at the craziness of political correctness gone mad, cancel culture and woke identity politics in Australia's modern political world from 2017 to the present, including the demise of Malcolm Turnbull, the rise of ScoMo, Biden, Covid, China, climate change, the MeToo movement, transgenderism and so much more. Aided by his trusted assistant Rowena, Rowan Dean exposes in all its comical cultural chaos the hypocrisy and foibles of our ruling classes, the peccadilloes of our pusillanimous politicians and the absurdity of today's leftist woke dogma. From re-imagining Dr Seuss, re-writing 'Gone with the Woke', uncovering the racists in the Palace, to exposing the lunacy of lockdowns and the lewd tales of Canberra, not since Chaucer has an author had such rick pickings with which to entertain us.

Christianity is one of the foundation stones of Western civilization and liberal democracies and its strengths and benefits far outweigh its sins. In his latest collection, Kevin Donnelly, one of Australia's leading conservative commentators, looks at how in an increasingly radical, secular society dominated by cancel culture, Judeo-Christianity is attacked and condemned and why now more than ever faith matters and should be fought for. The Bible and Christianity more broadly have been and continue to be a major influence on Australia's political and legal systems, the arts, literature, music, architecture and the language we speak. Judeo-Christianity also provides a moral and ethical compass deciding right from wrong as well as a spiritual, transcendent sense of our place in the world. In education, health, aged care and social welfare Christianity is also vitally important and beneficial. Christianity is Good for Us is a reminder of why the Christian faith matters to us as individuals and a nation and gives readers a deep knowledge, understanding and appreciation of how Judeo-Christianity underpins and informs our way of life.
