Description
History provides us with a story of how we got to where we are; it gives us a heritage, and consequently a sense of place. We know where we fit in to a broader temporal 'scheme of things'. This collection brings together some of the best and most influential writng on Australian history, combined with some of the most significant and illustrative primary sources, covering the period to 1901. There are, of necessity, many voices that speak in these sources. Historical actors include the traditional Aboriginal people, the scornful William Dampier, the enchanted 'Banjo' Paterson, the zealous missionaries, and the determined Labor Party. If historical actors speak with many voices, so too do the historians who analyse them and their experiences. This collection inlcudes some of the most enlightening writing on pre-Federation Australia; from Anne Summers 'ground breaking' 1975 feminist take on the convict experience and Mudrooroo's similarly distinctive consideration of what an Aboriginal version of the past might look like, to Richard White's evaluation of Australia as an image and an idea, and Stuart Macintryre's superb end-of-millennium overview of Australia's past.

Description
e-Activism (the use of ICT in support of environmental action) aims to develop students' knowledge, skills and attitudes to make them proficient in using ICT to achieve environmental and political goals.  This requires teachers to be able to create appropriate ICT-based learning environments.  This paper dicusses a particular pedagogical design and demonstrates its relationship to real-world political and environmental action.

Description
The study's thesis posits that by virtue of the enabling role of local governments, at the core of their public accountability must include the local economic development of their locality, which is termed in this study as 'economic accountability'. Grounded on the model of accountability, enabling theory and institutional theory, the study presents empirical evidence supportive of this argument such that this enabling role, as manifested by the local governments' capacity to set up formal institutions, has direct impact on the entrepreneurial strategic posture and performance of local small and medium enterprises (SMEs) which are key players in local economic development. The results of the structural equation modelling support the view that the formal institutions as manifestations of the enabling role of city governments are positively associated with an entrepreneurial strategic posture of local firms, which consequently improves the firms’ overall economic performance. Therefore, SME development in particular and local economic development in general, should be part of the economic accountability of local governments in the Philippine context of local governance.

Description
This study advances the thesis that knowledge gained from a formal entrepreneurship education program will have positive effects on an individual's overall entrepreneurial intentions through the mediating influences of attitudes and social norms favouring entrepreneurial behaviour. In this proposed conceptual framework, it is argued that the knowledge gained by students attending an entrepreneurship course will have a positive impact on the students' intentions of starting a business. Guided by the theory of planned behaviour, this study proposes a research design which involves tracking of the changes in the students' perceptions of the desirability of, self-efficacy in engaging in, and social norms supportive of, entrepreneurship and their consequent influences on the student's entrepreneurial intentions prior to the start and upon completion of an entrepreneurship course.

Description
"On the Warpath" is a flawed book; its lack of balance and proportion alone disqualify it as a suitable addition to school libraries. But we are on the whole better off having it than not. Its existence adds a little to our growing sense of nationhood so poignantly expressed in the fine extract from Georgia Savigne in Vietnam, though she had had her reservations about the war. She was standing by the cross to the memory of Australian soldiers who fell at their great battle at Long Tan: 'They were there on my behalf, which means that as long as I lived I must not deny them. It was my first intimation of belonging to a people, to a race.'

Description
In this ‘memoir about going home’, home is where the heart is. The book’s principal locale is the Tasmania of Martin Flanagan’s Irish Catholic small-town childhood. But ‘home’, in this narrative, isn’t just a place: it’s a state of the self. It’s what one gets back to when life’s useless accretions, confusions and hesitations are peeled away, leaving a self that is pristine — attuned to its true origins, its deepest intimations about the world, and to the values that the unadulterated self lives by. Flanagan’s journey is a quest for the authentic self. A ‘romantic’, he wants to embrace the ‘wild green joy of living’ — a phrase that typifies the passionate intensity of his search.

Immunolocalisation of sodium/proton exchanger-like proteins in the gills of elasmobranchs

Description
Na + /H + exchangers are integral membrane proteins that exchange Na + and H + across cell membranes. The Na + /H + exchangers 2 and 3 are epithelial isoforms in mammals and contribute to acid–base homeostasis. The gills of fishes, including elasmobranchs, are also associated with acid/base balance, and are probably the primary acid/base regulatory organ. This study examines the presence of Na + /H + exchangers 2 and 3 using immunohistochemistry and immunoblotting in the gills of four species of elasmobranchs, the banjo ray (Trygonorrhina fasciata), southern eagle ray ( Myliobatis australis ), the gummy shark ( Mustelus antarcticus ) and the Australian angel shark ( Squatina australis ) using heterologous antibodies. Na + /H + exchanger 2-like immunoreactivity was observed in the gills of the banjo ray, eagle ray and angel shark. In the banjo and eagle rays, this Na + /H + exchanger-like immunoreactivity co-localised with immunoreactivity to Na + /K + -ATPase, a marker for the mitochondrial-rich cells of fishes. Na + /H + exchanger 3-like immunoreactivity was only observed in the gills of the angel and gummy sharks, some Na + /H + exchanger 3-like cells also showed Na + /K + -ATPase immunoreactivity. However, immunoblotting of banjo and eagle ray gill membranes demonstrated Na + /H + exchanger 3-like immunoreactivity, which was not consistent with the immunohistochemical results. These data demonstrate the presence of epithelial Na + /H + exchangers 2 and 3 in the gills of elasmobranchs and a link with acid/base regulation is suggested.

Description
This paper presents a conceptual framework showing formal and informal institutions and their relationship with the strategic choice of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in a developing country setting. It emphasises how institutions at sub-national level (such as a region or city) influence the strategic orientations of MSMEs as many developing countries in Asia are undergoing decentral-isation whereby sub-national government authorities are given more political, economic, fiscal, and administrative powers. Furthermore, it sheds more insights on the environ-mental (institutional) determinism-organisational (strategic) choice nexus. It offers propositions, questions as well as issues worth pursuing in empirical investigations in the future.

Description
This paper proposes a conceptual framework on the role of formal and informal institutional factors at the sub-national level (e.g. city) in shaping the climate conducive for the growth and success of micro, small, and medium enterprises(MSMEs). Extant literature reveals that institutional analyses tend to focus on either formal or informal institutions, in narrow and fragmented ways. Likewise,previous studies focused their analysis on national or country-wide institutional frameworks, ignoring the institutional heterogeneity of regions and cities within a given country. This study attempts to develop an integrated institutional approach at the city-level and stretch the conceptual boundaries of formal and informal institutions as they shape the local entrepreneurial climate – the set of tangible and intangible institutional factors that are shaping the performance of entrepreneurial firms in a geographically and politically defined area such as a city.

The Library collects, holds and individually preserves 'mint condition' copies of all music currently published in Australia, by Australians or which are related to Australia. But the National Library also 'hunts and gathers' post-1830 treasures that, through serendipity, have survived those traditional repositories: the piano stool or the box in the shed.
