journal contribution
posted on 2017-05-05, 01:15 authored by Flannery, TimThe history of the land of Australia and her near neighbours and the history of the peoples of these lands has much to tell us about our environment: both its potential and its limits. Tim Flannery's book The Future Eaters draws on these lessons with skill and insight. We reproduce an excerpt here and then invite the author to tell us about the reactions to his work, especially in the context of the recent Jones report on Australia's population.
