Contextualises Austalia's role in contemporary IR issues
This book offers an excellent analysis of the policy concerns that have and will continue to dominate the Australian political landscape.

The editors, and in particular, Madelaine Chiam, have compiled and useful and interesting collection of perspectives, covering the spectrum of IR issues, whilst being able to maintain a political narration which draws a vivid and interesting picture of how Australia has and should approach its international commitments, both legal and moral.

5/5

Thought-provoking
This is a really good human rights textbook. It covers a wide range of human rights issues, and has a lot of interesting articles. However I found some of the chapters rather difficult because of the legal jargon. Some of the things you have to read over more than once. The questions in the text focus on your personal opinions, so doing homework from this book is not so bad once you understand the questions (which for my slow brain was a challenge.) It is also very useful as a doorstop. :)

A book worth reading, not for the fainted heart
A book mixing a variety of topics on the hot subject of child labor, it combines all the right elements to attract the reader. Though the lengh of the book is a little long its great ideas and intriguing subject keep you reading. This is an enjoyable book to read on a lazy day.
