Paperback. Condizione: New. The Dingo Debate explores the intriguing and relatively unknown story of Australia's most controversial animal - the dingo. Throughout its existence, the dingo has been shaped by its interactions with human societies. With this as a central theme, the book traces the story of the dingo from its beginnings as a semi-domesticated wild dog in South-east Asia, to its current status as a wild Australian native animal under threat of extinction. It describes how dingoes made their way to Australia, their subsequent relationship with Indigenous Australians, their successful adaption to the Australian landscape and their constant battle against the agricultural industry. During these events, the dingo has demonstrated an unparalleled intelligence and adaptable nature seen in few species. The book concludes with a discussion of what the future of the dingo in Australia might look like, what we can learn from our past relationship with dingoes and how this can help to allow a peaceful co-existence.The Dingo Debate reveals the real dingo beneath the popular stereotypes, providing an account of the dingo's behaviour, ecology, impacts and management according to scientific and scholarly evidence rather than hearsay. This book will appeal to anyone with an interest in Australian natural history, wild canids, and the relationship between humans and carnivores.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Fine condition blue boards, blue cloth spine, and gold spine lettering contained in a near fine condition non price-clipped photographic dust jacket. Includes Preface; Editorial Note; Epilogue: Later Years; List of Letters and Index. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs and map. A small neatly scripted vintage August 1983 gift inscription on the half title page. "In 1890 Harry Truman met Bess Wallace in Sunday school and, as he said years later, knew she would be his life's love. This chance meeting led to one of the most durable marriages of our century - and a flood of correspondenc. Bess kept most of Harry's letters in various nooks and crannies of the house in Independence, Missouri. They wrote to each other almost daily, beginning with their early courtship when Harry was a farmr near Grandview, through hs army experience in World War I, his years in Missouri politics, and his terms as United States Senator and, eventually, President of the United States. As documents of life in a bygone era, the letters are captivating. They form a narrative relating almost five decades of events that touched not only Truman's personal life, but also, on a broader scale, the nation that he loved. It is all seen through the yes of an uncomplicated man who couldn't bring himself to use politics as others did for personal gain, who profoundly wanted the world to benefit from his labors, and who tried, throughout his life, to be a man his "Dear Bess" would respect. In these letters we see the familiar Truman writing about his life as it unfolded - the man with a "give 'em hell" temper and puckish charm. We se the adoring and protective father; the common man who worried about money, cars, getting too little sleep, and visiting a dentist. But we also see a side he kept hidden - the man who moved between self-confidence and self doubt, the man who always needed to share his fears and joys with the woman he loved." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. Diehl, Edward P. (jacket design); Smith, Bradley (rear jacket photograph); Harry S. Truman Library (front jacket photograph) (illustratore).…
