 From the Outback to the Great Barrier Reef to glorious, sophisticated
cities like Sydney, this guide helps you find the Australian adventures
and attractions that are right for you, whether you’d like to cuddle a
koala, explore a shipwreck, swim with whale sharks, or climb the Sydney
Harbour Bridge. It gives you the scoop on:
- The mysterious Uluru (Ayers Rock) in Red Center that has awed people for thousands of years
- Where
to spot all kinds of wildlife, including kangaroos, platypuses,
wallabies, Tasmanian devils, wombats, marsupials, and man-eating
crocodiles
- The best places to take a beach walk or a bushwalk, where you’ll wind beneath dripping tree ferns and pounding cascades
- All
kinds of activities, from boomerang- and spear-throwing instruction to
hiking to snorkeling over dazzling reefs, fishing for coral trout, or
discovering Australia’s best wines
- Great accommodations,
ranging from luxury hotels to an African-style safari camp with
air-conditioned tents to a motel with underground rooms reached by a
maze of tunnels dug out of the rock
- The best places to experience Aboriginal culture and find Aboriginal arts and crafts

 The Encyclopedia of Community focuses on the hard-to-define
concept of community and works to explore and position that concept
within many disciplines and contexts. Entries such as Apartheid, Blogs, County fairs, Eugenics, Gangs, Shtetls, Social Darwinism, and Third places display the wide scope that the editors and contributors give to the notion of community. |
