9781760877545 | $29.99 | PB | HEALTH There's never been a better time to be a woman—we can have it
all! That's what feminism promised, didn't it?
As we juggle the roles of partner, boss, friend, mother and
employee (plus a side hustle), balance has never been more
crucial. We're obsessed with everything wellness, yet women's
mental health and wellbeing are in decline. We're drowning in
feminist guilt while trying to keep everything afloat, plagued by
perfectionism, riddled with doubt, ruled by screens and hurtling
towards burnout.
When Felicity Harley, founding editor of Women's Health
magazine and whimn.com.au, felt really out of kilter, she started
talking to other women about their overwhelm. The floodgates
opened. Turns out her girlfriends, colleagues and other mums
at the school gate had been quietly worrying about the personal
cost of modern life and why their wellness wasn't working too.
Out of those conversations comes this rallying cry for every
woman who craves balance but is shouldering the mental load,
too tired and crazy-busy to see solutions.
Using research and insights from leading Australian experts
in health, sociology and feminism - alongside wisdom from
smart women like Turia Pitt and Tanya Plibersek - plus her own
experiences, Felicity calls out the crap in cult wellness. In her
warm and inspiring way, she shows how you can cut through
the B.S. to find clarity in the chaos, offload some of your mental
load, and feel truly empowered in the middle of your wonderfully
messy life.

The story of the extraordinary Mrs Mac, pioneering engineer and
wartime legend
David Dufty
ALLEN & UNWIN
9781760876654 | $29.99 | PB | BIOGRAPHY
Pioneering engineer, wartime legend, trailblazing leader
All around Australia, former WRANS and navy men regard the
woman they know as Mrs Mac with a level of reverence usually
reserved for saints. Yet today no-one has any idea of who she was
and how she rescued Australia's communication systems in WWII.
As you climbed the rickety stairs of an old woolshed at Sydney
harbour in 1944, the sound of beeping would become almost
deafening. Rows of men and women in uniforms and headsets
would be tapping away vigorously at small machines, under the
careful watch of their young female trainers. Presiding over the
cacophony was a tiny woman, known to everyone as 'Mrs Mac',
one of Australia's wartime legends.
Violet McKenzie was the first Australian woman to study
electrical engineering, and she was a pioneer in the early days
of radio. As the clouds of war gathered in the 1930s, she defied
conventions and trained young women in Morse code, foreseeing
that their services would soon be sorely needed. Always a
champion of women, she even persuaded the navy to set up a
new defence force for women, the WRANS. Mrs Mac was adored
by the thousands of young women and men she trained, and she
came to be respected by the defence forces and the public too for
her vision and contribution to the war effort. David Dufty brings
her inspiring story back to life for readers today.

Who can ever truly know their parents?
He was a glamorous heart-throb, a famous American singer
performing at the Academy Awards in front of Bette Davis,
Katherine Hepburn, Clarke Cable and other stars. In the 1930s,
his records were outselling Bing Crosby's.
So how did he become an Australian infantryman, fighting
alongside and performing for his fellow Diggers in Palestine,
Beirut, Egypt and New Guinea?
Why did he leave Hollywood and the ritziest hotels in California
for a modest Californian bungalow in suburban Sydney?
And what caused him to cease his endless drifting from one
woman to another, one marriage to another, and settle with
the love of his life?
She was a strong Aussie woman, a talented radio broadcaster
and publicity agent. Why did she take a chance on this reckless
vagabond and notorious womaniser?
Seeking answers, Darleen Bungey turns her forensic skills on
her own family, exploring her father's multi-layered and at times
tempestuous life with a truthful eye and loving heart.

An extraordinary story of growing up in the late 1960s and early
70s on an outback cattle property
Whether working the mobs of cattle with the stockmen, playing
cattleduffing on horseback or singing and doing lessons at their
School of the Air desks, Tanya Heaslip and her siblings led a
childhood unimaginable to many Australians. Growing up on
a vast and isolated cattle property just north of Alice Springs,
Tanya tells of wild rides, of making far-flung friends over the Air,
of the dangers, the fun and the back-breaking work. As the eldest
child, her added responsibility was to look after the littler ones, so
she was by their sides dealing with snakes, the threat of bushfires
and broken bones.
Tanya's parents, Janice and Grant 'the Boss' Heaslip, were
pioneers. They developed Bond Springs Station where water was
scarce, where power was dependent on generators and where
a trip to town for supplies meant a full day's journey. Grant was
determined to teach his children how to survive in this severe
environment and his lessons were often harsh. In a childhood that
most would consider very tough, Tanya tells of this precious time
with raw honesty, humour, love and kindness. This is the story of
an Alice girl.
