A STUDY IN BLACK & WHITE: THE ABORIGINES IN AUSTRALIAN HISTORY A STUDY IN BLACK & WHITE: THE ABORIGINES IN AUSTRALIAN HISTORY 3rd Ed
Malcolm Prentis , PB
Rosenberg Publishing $29.95

Many changes have occurred in Aboriginal history in the last twenty years. This means not only that history has continued to happen since 1988. It also means that there have been sharp challenges to our understanding of the whole of the past, before and since 1988. The past itself has been even more hotly contested than before 1988 as historians and others became embroiled in the so-called 'history wars'. This edition has been extensively revised.

SHRIMPS, PRAWNS AND LOBSTERS SHRIMPS, PRAWNS AND LOBSTERS
Gary C.B. Poore , PB
Museum Victoria $19.95

For most of us, shrimps, prawns and lobsters immediately brings to mind something edible and tasty. Many are small inconspicuous inhabitants living on our shores and in shallow water. This guide includes a description of each animal accompanied by a colour photograph with information about each animal's behaviour, diversity and ecology. The endmatter includes both a scientific and common name index, further references and a glossary.

CORDUROY MANSIONS CORDUROY MANSIONS
Alexander McCall Smith , HB
Polygon $39.95

Corduroy Mansions – described in a guide to the architecture of the area as "a building of no interest whatsoever" - is believed to have been built as an asylum, or possibly a school, or maybe it was a mansion block - nobody is very sure. In fact, nothing of its history is known, although it does have some nice Arts and Craft features. At the moment it is inhabited by an assortment of characters – including amongst others a literary agent, a wine merchant, one accountant, possibly the first ever nasty Liberal Democrat MP and his long-suffering PA, and a small dog in his prime. At least one character is on a voyage of self discovery, which has taken him to Cheltenham so far. Although Corduroy Mansions is a nickname, it is now recognised by the Post Office.

BARNACLES BARNACLES
Gary C.B. Poore , PB
Museum Victoria $19.95

This guide covers barnacles of mainly south-eastern Australia and begins with information about their biology, habitats and diversity. A description of each animal is accompanied by a colour photograph. A key is also provided for easier identification of common barnacles, with some of the more rare and less visible animals related to barnacles.The endmatter includes both a scientific and common name index, further references and a glossary.

CRIMESPOTTING CRIMESPOTTING
Irvine Welsh , Margaret Atwood , Ian Rankin , Alexander McCall Smith , ' et al. , HB
Polygon $29.95

All the short stories are brand new, specially commissioned for Crimespotting. The authors were asked for a story which features a crime and is set in Edinburgh. The results range from hard-boiled police procedural to historical whodunit and from the wildly comic to the spookily supernatural.
