Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the Work of the Horn Scientific Expedition to Central Australia, Vol. 3: Geology and Botany In the consideration of the physical geography of this country the mountain system should first demand our attention, as being of primary importance, for on it not only does the trend of the main valleys depend but also the size, number, and even the very existence of the rivers, by reason of its in uence on the wind and rain. For the above reasons the mcdonnell Ranges form the most important physiographic feature of Central Australia. Were it not for the presence of this chain of comparatively elevated land, with its important in uence on the meteorology of the surrounding country, the greater part of the interior would resemble a sterile desert, which is the actual condition of portions of the stony and sandy plains after a more than usually prolonged drought.

Download or read book The Ashgate Research Companion to Anthropology written by Andrew J. Strathern and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 863 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This companion provides an indispensable overview of contemporary and classical issues in social and cultural anthropology. Although anthropology has expanded greatly over time in terms of the diversity of topics in which its practitioners engage, many of the broad themes and topics at the heart of anthropological thought remain perennially vital, such as understanding order and change, diversity and continuity, and conflict and co-operation in the reproduction of social life. Bringing together leading scholars in the field, the contributors to this volume provide us with thoughtful and fruitful ways of thinking about a number of contemporary and long-standing arenas of work where both established and more recent researchers are engaged. The companion begins by exploring classic topics such as Religion; Rituals; Language and Culture; Violence; and Gender. This is followed by a focus on current developments within the discipline including Human Rights; Globalization; and Diasporas and Cosmopolitanism. It provides an interesting and challenging look at the state of current thinking in anthropology, serving as a rich resource for scholars and students alike.

Download or read book The Body Divided written by Sally Wilde and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bodies and body parts of the dead have long been considered valuable material for use in medical science. Over time and in different places, they have been dissected, autopsied, investigated, harvested for research and therapeutic purposes, collected to turn into museum and other specimens, and then displayed, disposed of, and exchanged. This book examines the history of such activities, from the early nineteenth century through to the present, as they took place in hospitals, universities, workhouses, asylums and museums in England, Australia and elsewhere. Through a series of case studies, the volume reveals the changing scientific, economic and emotional value of corpses and their contested place in medical science.

Download or read book Creating White Australia written by Jane Carey and published by Sydney University Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The adoption of White Australia as government policy in 1901 demonstrates that whiteness was crucial to the ways in which the new nation of Australia was constituted. And yet, historians have largely overlooked whiteness in their studies of Australia's racial past. Creating White Australia takes a fresh approach to the question of 'race' in Australian history. It demonstrates that Australia's racial foundations can only be understood by recognising whiteness too as 'race'. Including contributions from some of the leading as well as emerging scholars in Australian history, it breaks new ground by arguing that 'whiteness' was central to the racial ideologies that created the Australian nation. This book pursues the foundations of white Australia across diverse locales. It also situates the development of Australian whiteness within broader imperial and global influences. As the recent apology to the Stolen Generations, the Northern Territory Intervention and controversies over asylum seekers reveal, the legacies of these histories are still very much with us today.
