The Love Poems of Nidhi Saxena

'Indigenous Education and the Metaphysics of Presence articulates a fundamental challenge to western thought, namely, the deep implicancy (entanglement), which is the core of Indigenous Metaphysics. By collapsing the distinctions between the self, the idea, and the things of the world, Carl Mika beautifully and powerfully exposes the poverty of the mode of thinking that cannot but hold everything hostage to its deadly yearn for (self-)determination. This book is a mandatory reading for anyone interested in what becomes of thought and existence when contemplated beyond the limits of modern western philosophy.' - Denise Ferreira da Silva, Director, The Social Justice Institute (GRSJ), University of British Columbia, Canada
'In centring Maori thought encompassing holism and the metaphysical, Mika clearly demonstrates that Indigenous ways of knowing and being are interconnected and relational, which fundamentally counters the colonial project of homogenization, assimilation, and genocide. In having a dual conversation between philosophy and education, he clearly articulates why the dominant Western perception of an object fundamentally continues to fail Indigenous students due to the inherent contradictions between Indigenous and Western thought, philosophy, and language. And, finally, in centring his Maori voice within Indigenous philosophy, Mika provides a counter-narrative to colonization. This book demonstrates the unique philosophical relationships as a Maori and the relationality and interconnectedness to other Indigenous voices and nations. It is a text that will engage, enlighten, and empower Indigenous thought and transform educational systems.' - Michelle Pidgeon, Associate Professor, Faculty of Education, Simon Fraser University, Canada

'Moira Goff makes the most of limited resources to offer a good account of Hester Santlow’s career. Her treatment of Santlow as an actress is convincing, and the dances come alive in her descriptions. One gets a real sense of the talented performer for whom they were written'. Judith Milhous,  CUNY Graduate Center, USA  ’... It exemplifies dance scholarship of a rare kind: Ms. Goff spent 20 years investigating even the slightest details of Santlow’s life and career and wrote about her dances from experience, step by step, and with feeling. ... the book’s detail is marvelous.’ New York Times  ’Goff's research has been thorough and meticulous.... This is a book that will be of great value to academics and researchers...’ The Dancing Times  ’This book is undoubtedly a result of the author's dedication and fascination with the charming theatrical figure of Hester Santlow.’ Theatre Survey  'The great strength of this book is the diligent recreation of many of the dances, music, and occasions on which they were performed, together with an account of Santlow's dancing masters and later partners. ... this is a book that combines learning with enthusiasm, is illustrated usefully, and makes one regret not having seen the dancer-actress herself.'

'What could have been a book solely for a narrow audience of specialist historians and policy wonks, actually makes for engaging reading for anyone with an interest in the development of the Australian nation.' Australian Policy Online  ’It is to be hoped that A Decent Provision makes its way speedily into teaching and research, and indeed policy-making.’ EH.NET  'This is an excellent narrative history of the development and implementation of Australian welfare policy from the late-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century... This will be a valuable resource for students and scholars of Australian social policy as well as others interested in transnational developments during the period.' Australian Journal of Politics and History  'This book succeeds admirably as a work of synthesis that also draws importantly on primary documentation to tell a story of Australian experience to a wider world audience.' Australian Historical Studies  'For non-Australian readers, in particular, the second significant benefit of this excellent investigation of Australian welfare policy during the colonial period and the first half-century after Federation is the comparative perspective it affords.' Labour History Review  '... Murphy has made a welcome contribution to the literature on the welfare state. He reveals the importance of Australia’s unique experience with social policy and provides a meaningful case-study of more wide-ranging trends within welfare legislation and practices.' English Historical Review  'This is an impressive book. It is both an excellent history of the Australian welfare system and an insightful reflection on the relation between that history and the welfare system today. It is a book that you recognize has been written by an expert in the field - presenting its description of the main contours of history and bringing out its main themes with a clarity that can only come from detailed research and extensive thinking.'

'Anne-Christine Hornborg provides valuable insights into changing spiritual and land-based practices of Mi'kmaq in Canada (principally Nova Scotia's Cape Breton Island) since the seventeenth century, focusing on the twentieth century while also considering prospects and limitations for knowledge of pre-contact and early contact Mi'kmaq traditions.'
