Wrong number: resolving Australia's telecommunications impasse

Ergas, Henry
"Australia's telecommunications policy has hit an impasse. Government attempted to turn a monopoly into a competitive market with multiple players. A decade later, the result has been underinvestment and services which are falling behind other countries. This book explains how and why that has occurred. A flawed regulatory regime has distorted prices, deterred investment and privileged rent-seeking over genuine competition. The ACCC's administration of that regime has made matters worse, setting access charges below cost while extending the reach of regulation far beyond any reasonable bounds. As investment and innovation have stalled, government, rather than reforming the regulatory arrangements, has staggered from one poorly conceived half-measure to the next. In the process, billions of dollars of taxpayers' money have been spent, with much of that money wasted."--Provided by publisher.

A boy, who grows up in poisonous, anti-Sematic surroundings in Poland, he travels to Palestine and unexpectedly finds a purpose in life. then everything changes for Abram with the outbreak of World War II. He joins the British Army as a private and a sequence of incredible events follow- he serves in the suicide comando and is court-martialed for hitting a British Sargeant Major. After the war ends, Abram, now a major in the British Army, organizes the transport of tens of thousands of concentration camp survivors to Palestine. he does this right under the noses of British intelligence, and is later detained for months while being investigated. Finally, the story moves on to the War of Independence in Palestine, where Abram plays a critical part in establishing a secret road to supply the surrounded Jerusalem Jews- saving them from the Arabs. Abram tells of his fight with Prime Minister Ben-Gurion and its consequences. The incredible saga of Abram plays out against the stark reality of World War II and its aftermath. It will no doubt leave an indelible impression on the reader.

Armageddon in the classroom: an examination of nuclear education

London, Herbert I.
The classroom texts presently in use on the subject of nuclear weapons provide ample evidence that a biased version of peace studies has insinuated itself into the school curriculum at all levels of study, whereby these guides represent a blatant ideological slant in the direction of unilateral disarmament and portray the United States as the culprit in the 'arms race.' This book advocates the restoration of a balanced view to the study of national security.

The wandering radiance: selected poems of

Domin, Hilde
"Hilde Domin was one of the most highly regarded German poets of the 20th century. Her work was deeply influenced by her time in exile and loss of homeland. A poet of the Jewish faith, she fled political developments in Germany in 1932 and spent more than twenty years of her life in various countries including the Dominican Republic, which became her self-chosen namesake. After returning home to Germany from exile she became known as the "poet of return" and received numerous honors for her literary work, including the Carl Zuckmayer Medal, the Nelly Sachs Prize, and the Grand Federal Cross of Merit. The Wandering Radiance is a selection of poems that spans decades. Presented bilingually, many of these poems appear here for the first time in English, brilliantly translated by Mark S. Burrows"--
