By Joe Fisher, Bstan-'dzin-rgya-mtsho. 2001
The age-old belief in reincarnation is enjoying a revival. More and more people are asking 'is this all there is?'…
and opening themselves up to the possibility of returning to life in new bodies to continue their spiritual growth. Reincarnation is not exclusive to the Hindu or Buddhist religions, it is part of the history of mankind. The Dalai Lama has written of this book that "it will contribute substantially to explain and interest the average westerner in the subject of rebirth." In 'Coming Back Alive' Joe Fisher explores the origins of belief in rebirth and examines the evidence for life after life while placing ideas of human reincarnation in the context of the life of the universe. Joe Fisher began to research past and future lives in 1982, the more deeply he delved the more he was swayed by the large body of evidence that supports the case for reincarnation. He first published his findings in 'The Case for Reincarnation' but has now revised and updated his work under the title 'Coming Back Alive'. Including new material on the discarnate realm between incarnations, new developments in past-life therapy and childhood reincarnation memory of earlier lives and describing the continued progress made in reincarnation research since the original publication this is the most comprehensive account available.Black and white lies: self-exposures: some long, some short, some indecent

By Brenda Niall. 2012
Growing up in suburban Perth in the 1920s, the two Durack girls were fascinated by tales of the pioneering past…
of their father and grandfather overlanding from Queensland in the 1880s and setting up four vast cattle stations in the remote north. A year spent together on the stations in their early twenties ignited in the sisters a lifelong love of the Kimberley, along with a growing unease about the situation of the Aboriginal people employed there. Through war, love affairs, children and eventual old age, the Duracks continued to write and paint - their closely intertwined creative lives always shaped by the enduring power of the Kimberley region.
