| Title: Appo |
| Sub-title: Recollections of a Member of the Sydney Push |
| By (author): Richard Appleton |
| ISBN10-13: 1921364092 : 9781921364099 |
| As a poet, editor and author, Richard Appleton was driven by a love of language and ideas, and a desire that Australians might better understand their country and themselves. He wrote an incisive, accurate prose interspersed with a telling humour. This book provides fresh and valuable insights into Australiaâ s evolving society, politics and culture over the second half of the 20th century.â Recollections of a Member of the Sydney Push is full of revelations for a Melbourne person, reminding me of a time when most Australians lived in parallel universes. Richard and I were born in the same year but he operated inside the milieu of Sydney libertarianism, far removed from the prim Methodism and Fabian socialism which existed, without flourishing, in Melbourne. As a Labor Party activist, Richard became increasingly frustrated by the way factions operated, and his experiences had an eerie resemblance to my own. He worked creatively in editing new editions of The Australian Encyclopaedia in which I played a tiny role as contributor, and his chapters on this project are hilarious. Richard has left a valuable and provoking memoir which I encourage you to read.â â Barry Jonesâ Philosopher and encyclopaedist Richard Appleton was a doyen of the Sydney Push, our most original Bohemia. For forty years, he was famed there for his debonair ways, his cigarette-holders and his dramatic Parisian car, but also for his gift of sharing friendship. The Navyâ s loss was a clear gain for our culture.â â Les Murray |

|
"Appleton's life, told here in such an entertaining fashion, is not only emblematic of the Push but, in many ways, emblematic of a large number of intelligent, sleepwalking urban males who grew up after World War II ... It is a very important and illuminating social and historical document and, because Appleton is a poet, it is beautifully written." -- Bruce Elder, Sydney Morning Herald

| Title: Foundations of the Assumed Business Operations and Strategy Body of Knowledge (BOSBOK) |
| Sub-title: An Outline of Shareable Knowledge |
| By (author): Gary R. Oliver |
| ISBN10-13: 1921364211 : 9781921364211 |
| A body of knowledge (BOK) is a collection of essential concepts, terms and activities within a profession or subject area. The business operations and strategy body of knowledge (BOSBOK) draws concepts, theories and examples from the disciplines of economics, education, finance, health sciences, international politics, law, marketing, philosophy and psychology.BOSBOK uses five dimensions to present knowledge about business, focusing on the business life cycle, adaptation, resources, recurring themes in employee behaviour, and the vocabulary of business. Knowledge is framed around three kinds of questions:What are the major challenges and issues? What are the principal tools and techniques? What are the managerial judgements and decisions that can be expected? |

| Sub-title: 150 Years of Sydney University Cricketers |
| By (author): Max Bonnell, James Rogers |
| ISBN10-13: 1921364580 : 9781921364587 |
| Sydney University Cricket Club is one of the oldest cricket clubs in Australia. Only a few years after the University was founded in 1850, the University fielded a cricket team against the Garrison Club, and played on what was once called the Garrison Ground, and is today the Sydney Cricket Ground.Over the next 150 years, the club fielded players of all levels of ability, and has been fortunate to have some very talented players on its teams. This book details the people and events that have shaped the development of the club: from Tom Garrett, the University's first Test player, men of prominence such as Edmund Barton and Doc Evatt, through to today's elite players like Ed Cowan. |
