The Post-Baby Conversation: What New Parents Need to Say to Each Other
by Alison OsborneAbalone Pioneers is the Australian story of the divers, deckhands, researchers and processors who established and developed the zone&’s abalone industry, from the amateur fishermen of the 1950s and the hazy crazy tribe of &‘scruffy longhairs&’, who were attracted by the hedonistic lifestyle and fantastic profits in the 1960s, to the professional enterprise of today. It charts the development of the Victorian Western Abalone Divers Association and its role managing and protecting the Victorian Western Zone&’s resources, and explores the successful diver-led commercial processors. Illustrated with over 100 historical photographs and featuring over 50 interviews, Abalone Pioneers is an exuberant and fascinating account of the establishment of one of Australia&’s valuable but little-known fisheries. Abalone is one of Australia&’s more valuable commercial fisheries, producing about 40 per cent of the world&’s wild-stock harvest, and a significant part of that is found off the coast of southwest Victoria, in what is known as the Western Zone.

You Are Inspired: An Intuitive Guide to Life with Meaning & Purpose (You Are ... Ser.)
by BelindaGraceThe biff had been part and parcel of rugby league for a century. Condoned even. As violent play like stiff arms, spear tackles, facial massages and stomping were weeded out of the game, the punch remained. As recently as the 1980s, league bosses would say there was nothing fans liked to see more than two forwards trading blows. But the biff is an endangered species in the NRL era. In Biff: Rugby League's Infamous Fights, Glen Humphries explores the most violent grand final, State of Origin fisticuffs, the Fibros versus Silvertails and how 'the hits keep coming' in the 2020s. As well as offering a ringside view, Biff also discusses the reasons behind the fights and what happened to the players afterwards. Some escaped suspension, while others were rubbed out of the game. A few missed the chance to play in a grand final or found their careers cut short after being on the receiving end of a nasty punch.
