{"product_id":"bondi-beach-douglas-booth-9789811639012","title":"Bondi Beach: Representations of an Iconic Australian","description":"\u003ci\u003eBondi Beach\u003c\/i\u003e is a history of an iconic place. It is a big history of geological origins, management by Aboriginal people, environmental despoliation by white Australians, and the formation of beach cultures. It is also a local history of the name Bondi, the origins of the Big Rock at Ben Buckler, the motives of early land holders, the tragedy known as Black Sunday, the hostilities between lifesavers and surfers, and the hullabaloos around the Pavilion. Pointing to a myriad of representations, author Douglas Booth shows that there is little agreement about the meaning of Bondi. Booth resolves these representations with a fresh narrative that presents the beach's perspective of a place under siege. Booth's creative narrative conveys important lessons about our engagement with the physical world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Douglas Booth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9811639019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789811639012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 349\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.76d","brand":"Douglas Booth","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44072569372927,"sku":"9789811639012","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3a582ef8-0f7b-4af4-9887-34b91975bb3f.jpg?v=1685442757","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bondi-beach-douglas-booth-9789811639012","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
