About Us 3 FEATURED TITLES > ATLAS OF BUTTERFLIES AND DIURNAL MOTHS IN THE MONSOON TROPICS OF NORTHERN AUSTRALIA M.F. Braby, D.C. Franklin, D.E. Bisa, M.R. Williams, A.A.E. Williams, C.L. Bishop and R.A.M. Coppen It is a landmark achievement and a wonderful legacy for future generations of biologists, and indeed for anyone with an interest in nature in northern Australia and of the future of this country. Professor John J.C.Z. Woinarski, Charles Darwin University Northern Australia is one of few tropical places left on Earth in which biodiversity—and the ecological processes underpinning that biodiversity—is still relatively intact. However, scientific knowledge of that biodiversity is still in its infancy and the region remains a frontier for biological discovery. The butterfly and diurnal moth assemblages of the area, and their intimate associations with vascular plants (and sometimes ants), exemplify these points. However, the opportunity to fill knowledge gaps is quickly closing: proposals for substantial development and exploitation of Australia’s north will inevitably repeat the ecological devastation that has occurred in temperate southern Australia—loss of species, loss of ecological communities, fragmentation of populations, disruption of healthy ecosystem function 462 pp | 290x205 mm and so on—all of which will diminish the value of ISBN 9781760462321 (Print) $135.00 the natural heritage of the region before it is fully ISBN 9781760462338 (Online) understood and appreciated. This Atlas has been prepared by a diverse team of specialists with expertise in conservation biology and butterfly biology. The lead author, Michael Braby, is recognised internationally for his research on the biodiversity of butterflies, particularly their taxonomy, systematics, biogeography, conservation and ecology. Featured Titles 5 PACIFIC EXPOSURES: PHOTOGRAPHY AND THE AUSTRALIA–JAPAN RELATIONSHIP Melissa Miles and Robin Gerster Photography is an evocative means of crossing time and territory in imaginative and physical senses … [Pacific Exposures] focuses on key moments when the practice of photography played crucial roles in Australian perceptions of and relations with Japan. Photography has been a key means by which Australians have sought to define their relationships with Japan. From the fascination with all things Japanese in the late nineteenth century, through the era of ‘White Australia’, the bitter enmity of the Pacific War, the path to reconciliation in the post-war period and the culturally complicated bilateralism of today, Australians have used their cameras to express a divided sense of conflict and kinship with a country that has by turns fascinated and infuriated. The remarkable photographs collected and discussed here for the first time shed new light on the history of Australia’s engagement with its most important regional partner. Pacific Exposures argues that photographs tell an important story of cultural production, response and reaction—not only about how Australians have pictured Japan over the Asian Studies Series decades, but how they see their own place in the 266 pp | 234x153 mm Asia‑Pacific.

Featured Titles 7 CHINA’S 40 YEARS OF REFORM AND DEVELOPMENT: 1978–2018 Edited by Ross Garnaut, Ligang Song and Cai Fang The purpose of looking back at the past 40 years of reform is to push the remaining necessary reforms to a new level. The year 2018 marks 40 years of reform and development in China (1978–2018). This commemorative book assembles some of the world’s most prominent scholars on the Chinese economy to reflect on what has been achieved as a result of the economic reform programs, and to draw out the key lessons that have been learned by the model of growth and development in China over the preceding four decades. This book explores what has happened in the transformation of the Chinese economy in the past 40 years for China itself, as well as for the rest of the world, and discusses the implications of what will happen next in the context of China’s new reform agenda. Focusing on the long-term development
