On This Day in New Zealand order quantity

NZ$ 35.00 each
Paperback
Author: Ron Palenski
Published by: Hodder Moa Beckett Publishers Ltd
In Stock: 5
This books lists chronologically, by month and day, significant events that affected New Zealand and New Zealanders, but this is no mere shopping list of dates. Each entry is like a potted biography of how New Zealand developed as a nation and of the events that made the news at the time. It begins with pre-European times (when definite dates were known) and traverses the exploration years, the colonial period, the changing times of the 1890s and 1900s, both world wars and up to the present. It is a self-contained history of New Zealand based on dates. It covers the great affairs of state but also includes events that touched the lives of all New Zealanders - a political and a social history rolled into one. The book also includes a unique index based on dates rather than pages so the reader can quickly find items of interest.

Music-lovers love lists, and this Top 100 from Radio New Zealand's highly respected music guru Nick Bollinger will not disappoint.

His choices come accompanied by some of the most entertaining writing about music and musicians you're ever likely to read.

Creating Waves: How Surfing Inspires our Most Creative New Zealanders order quantity
  +   -
NZ$ 35.00 each
Paperback
Author: Aaron Topp
Published by: HarperCollins
In Stock: 3
Surfing is a seductive mistress, providing inspiration, a time for reflection, personal challenge and sheer exhilaration. This is especially true in NZ, where we have a high number of artists, writers and musicians who surf. Aaron Topp, himself a surfer, explores this close relationship, and the role surfing and the sea plays in the creative lives of a selection of leading musicians, painters,sculptors, poets and fellow writers. In a series of perceptive and revealing personal profiles, he discovers that, as we suspected, while surfers may function in normal society, in reality they're a few steps removed.

Paperback
Author: Gareth Morgan & Geoff Simmons with John McCrystal
Published by: Public Interest Publishing (NZ)
In Stock: 3
New Zealand’s health system is a political football, held together only by the high quality of our nurses and doctors, according to a new book from Gareth Morgan.
While the local health system scrubs up surprisingly well globally, Dr Morgan finds a substantial mismatch between the public’s expectations and what the health system actually delivers. Morgan and Simmons go behind the scenes of the New Zealand public health system and bring clarity to the issues that need to be addressed if crisis is to be avoided.
The book explores the consequences of ongoing avoidance of the tough calls on rationing and prioritisation. It considers how many New Zealanders are already suffering or missing out from health care because of ad-hoc interventions in response to pressure groups.
