Review of Great New Zealand Argument

Today I received a copy of Great New Zea­l­and Argu­ment: Ideas about ourselves, edited by Rus­sell Brown, which was sur­pris­ingly quick. Pre­sum­ably it was dis­trib­uted from within the UK some­where. It’s a good look­ing book; the cover appears as if it might be a pic­ture of Rus­sell and his kid walk­ing down a coun­try road (I’ll have to ask him). Well chosen fonts, a good lay­out and obvi­ously metic­u­lous edit­ing make it easy on the eye too. I only wish I’d been able to get a hard­back ver­sion as this is a book I’d like to last.

Indulge in life, undermine those who seek to stamp it out

Rus­sell Brown reflects on a great win by the All Blacks over the week­end and notes that he doesn’t hold much hope for Live8.
