{"product_id":"the-australian-citizen-walter-murdoch-9781761539282","title":"The Australian Citizen","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat holds a country together? Murdoch answers plainly: shared ideas, just laws, and citizens who choose to do right. Beginning with the \"social instinct\" that draws people into community, he explains government as society's tool-made, improved, and kept running by ordinary men and women. He distinguishes the legislature, judiciary, and executive; shows how local councils handle roads, health, and water; how the States steward wider responsibilities; and how the Commonwealth manages matters of \"common concern.\" Throughout, examples and analogies make abstract terms vivid and practical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReaders finish with more than facts: they gain habits of attention, fair-mindedness, and public spirit-virtues that steady judgment, welcome responsibility, and turn love of country into everyday goodwill.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Walter Murdoch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1761539280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781761539282\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Living Book Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 226\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.52d","brand":"Walter Murdoch","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48874548232447,"sku":"9781761539282","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-australian-citizen-walter-murdoch-9781761539282","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
