1st ed. Paperback large octavo, very good condition, light bump top spine, minor edgewear corners. 242 pp. Two Australian feminist authors, Monica Dux and Zora Simic, examine the popular debates in which feminism stands accused. They show how the Great Feminist Denial is suppressing genuine debate about the problems that women face, and preventing real feminism from giving the solutions that it still has to offer. The book proposes a way forward that offers women a new way of calling themselves feminists.

Paperback octavo, very good condition, faint foxing edges, minor edgewear, light sticker mark front cover. 323 pp. Tony Taylor examines historical denial. He finds out what makes deniers tick. He delves into the pathology of deniers to prove that while each denial-provoking case may vary in character, the nature of historical denial remains relatively consistent. He examines six case studies of denialism: Turkey and the Armenians, David Irving and the Holocaust, the Japanese in Nanking, the atrocities of Stalin, and Serbian crimes against Bosnians in the Balkans, and Australian denial regarding Aborigines. The author is Associate Professor of history at Monash University, Melbourne, and consultant to the Australian Government on history education.

Heavy (1.3 Kg), and extra postage may be requested to destinations outside Australia. 415 pp. The fascinating story of the only treaties ever created in Australia. Examines why these agreements were forged, how the Aboriginal people understood their terms, why governments repudiated them, and how settlers claimed to be the rightful owners of the land. The author reveals the ways in which the settler society has endeavoured to make good its act of possession - by repeatedly creating histories that have recalled or repressed the memory of Batman, the treaties, and Aboriginal destruction and dispossession. Also charts how Aboriginal people have unsettled this matter of history through their remembering.
