| Summary |
The On series - little books on big ideas - pairs Australia's leading thinkers and cultural figures with some of the big themes in life. On Us by Mark Scott: Stop. Listen. Step outside the echo chamber. On Father by John Birmingham: A son's homage to his father. On Travel by Tony Wheeler: The more you travel, the more extraordinary the world becomes. On Lust and Longing by Blanche d'Alpuget: Here are the raw and timeless themes of the power and powerlessness inherent to lust, love, loss and death. On Indignation by Don Watson: Don Watson takes us on a journey of indignation and how it has been expressed in his forebears. On Violence by Natasha Stott Despoja: Why is violence against women endemic and how do we stop it? En Garde by Sarah Hanson-Young: In the era of wolf-whistle politics, women are sick of being degraded.
