Time For Change

A collection of twelve inspirational, provocative and insightful essays by prominent Australians on a wide range of topics including an Australian republic, the refugee issue, higher education reform, environmental sustainability and an Australian bill of rights.

Contributors include Natasha Stott Despoja on higher education; Julian Burnside on refugees; Helen Caldicott on nuclear power; Pat O'Shane on Indigenous Australians; Julia Gillard on healthcare; Carmen Lawrence on women's issues; Michael Kirby on dissent and Mike Rann on the environment. Proceeds from the book will be donated to Oxfam Community Aid Abroad.
