Music-lovers love lists, and this Top 100 from Radio New Zealand's highly respected music guru Nick Bollinger will not disappoint. As his legions of fans know, Bollinger's taste is eclectic: he's as likely to give space to the Axemen as to Bic Runga. His choices come accompanied by some of the most entertaining writing about music and musicians you're ever likely to read.

The 1970s - when we listened to glam rock, disco and punk, wearing spandex, platform soles, aviator glasses, wide ties, maxis, midis and minis, when going out on the town meant glitter-balls, Max Factor and Helena Rubenstein, sequins and safety-pins. Kiwis took to the streets against French nuclear tests and US warship visits, and - depending on your politics - Norman Kirk, Rob Muldoon, Marilyn Waring and John Minto were angels or demons. We rode Raleigh Choppers and Healing Dragsters; and drove Ford Capris, Cortinas and Escorts, Holden Kingswoods and Belmonts, Triumph Spitfires and Stags. We watched The Wacky Races, Dr Who, Lost in Space and The Professionals. We loved the 1974 Commonwealth Games, and Starsky & Hutch and Charlie's Angels. The 1970s were a cabaret of influences ...a fragmented, eclectic decade of disparity. And just like a cabaret, the audience could boo, cheer or laugh in disbelief. Except, of course, we weren't in ...

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.

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.
