Even serious journalists began referring to the national legislature metaphorically as the “monkey house” to encapsulate the farcical behaviour they were obliged to report. With Tony Abbott being pre-emptively ousted from the prime ministership by Malcolm Turnbull in 2015, Turnbull himself was, in turn, unceremoniously usurped in bizarre circumstances in August 2018, handing over the leadership to his slightly bemused Treasurer Scott Morrison. Suddenly, Australia was being branded as the notorious “coup capital of the Western democracies”, with five prime ministers in five years and only one losing the high office at a general election.

  • Bibliography of the History of Australasian Science, No. 39, 2017/8
    CSIRO PUBLISHING Historical Records of Australian Science, 2019, 30, 66–81 https://doi.org/10.1071/HR19901 Bibliography of the history of Australasian science, no. 39, 2017/8 Compiled by Helen M. Cohn eScholarship Research Centre, The University of Melbourne. Email: [email protected] Readers of this, the 40th bibliography, will note from the title that it covers material published in both 2017 and 2018. With the change in publication from June and December to January and July, there were inevitably a considerable number of items that could not be included in the previous bibliography: included here are publications issued between the latter part of 2017 and September of the following year, as well as some items from 2016 that, despite her best efforts, had managed to escape the attention of the compiler. The subject coverage is, as usual, Australia and its near neighbours (including Antarctica), and the natural and applied sciences in their broadest sense, from anthropology and astrophysics to zoology. In compiling the bibliography a large number of journals and websites are checked for citations to relevant articles, books and book reviews on subjects covered. Library resources were again most useful, particularly those at The University of Melbourne and the State Library of Victoria. The databases of the National Library of Australia and the National Library of New Zealand Te Papa Ma¯tauranga O Aotearoa, also were invaluable in the pursuit of significant publications. The compiler is most grateful to these readers and authors who alerted her to new publications. Often those people are aware of sources unknown to the compiler.
