Download or read book Queensland s Frontier Wars written by Jack Drake and published by Boolarong Press. This book was released on 2021-06-11 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Queensland’s Frontier Wars is an attempt to document the known confrontations between either white settlers or white and native police and First Nations people where deaths were reported. It is now an accepted premise that these confrontations were wars to gain access to the land, because, if not wars, then it was mass murder. No one in Queensland was charged with the murder of First Nations during these confrontations. The book shows the invasion from New South Wales into southern Queensland and the advances from the sea in central and north Queensland. The ‘dispersement’ of the First Nations people from their land was violent and efficient using far superior weaponry. This book adds significantly to the true and uncomfortable history of Queensland.

Book excerpt: What if you met your perfect partner in a dream, and when you agreed to meet in reality, found yourselves immersed in the dramas of a bygone era? William and Rachel, two young people, met in a dream in another time and place. They come from very different social backgrounds with different beliefs and expectations, and together they must confront their challenges and lessons as they try to survive a disastrous flood in the early colony of New South Wales in 1806. Before they can create the future they wish to share, they must endure the ordeal that has thrust them together in a remote river valley. To survive, they have to learn to trust and rely on each other and come to terms with the differences in their beliefs and backgrounds. They also have to embrace their dreams consciously. Can they find a common sense of purpose from within their dreams to create a plan for the future and put it into effect? And, can they share that vision with others to help forge the brave new reality that beckons us all from The Dreaming? Click here to view my book video: https://youtu.be/pJTab8GBjr8

Download or read book Traversing the Doctorate written by Tanya M. Machin and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-23 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the multiple ways in which doctoral programs are traversed by students, supervisors and administrators. Rather than proposing a single, homogeneous approach as the most effective form of doctoral education, the editors and contributors focus on the diversity of global approaches to the doctorate, including doctoral experiences from Australia, Finland, Chile, New Zealand and Spain. The doctorate emerges from this analysis as a highly complex, heterogeneous and situated phenomenon that resists easy solutions. Strategies that are successful in traversing the doctorate are found to be grounded in contexts that cannot necessarily be generalised to other situations: in doing so, the authors emphasise the importance of presenting a diverse array of experiences and stories. The separate and shared perspectives of doctoral students, supervisors and administrations are mapped and analysed in ways that bring their voices compellingly to life: this book will be of interest and value to students and scholars of the doctoral journey, as well as of international and comparative education.
