Up until the fall of the Iron Curtain, the housing estate "Baba" in Prague was a little-known tip. This was the last building exhibition which the Werkbund set up in Europe in 1932 and symbolises and entire ear, vividly depicting Modern Architecture in the Czech Republic, which has gained growing international recognition since 1989.

The Marovo Lagoon in the Western Province of Solomon Islands, home of the Babata people, enjoys worldwide fame for its outstanding natural beauty. Less well known is the complexity of life in the village of the lagoon. Liligeto's book provides and insight into one such village community. In addition to giving very comprehensive accounts of local custom, this book gives telling insights into how a local community of land-and sea-holding villagers handles an expanding variety of challenges in the fields of economic development and environmental conservation. In his study of the Babata people and their land and sea, the author clearly states his own position: It is locally grounded, that of a centrally placed member (indeed chief's secretary) of Butubutu Babata, and, moreover, one with a particularly deep interest in the tribe's traditions.

Chipping Norton: Surrey Beatty & Sons Pty Ltd. 1996. Trade paperback. Very good.. 210 p., bibliography, index. . Australia has the world's worst record for mammal extinctions in the last 200 years. These extinctions serve as indicators to the changes that have occurred to the Australian landscape and to the unique flora and fauna that characterize this continent. Conservation of native species and ecological communities threatened with extinction requires a concerted national approach. Without the commitment of the whole community, many native species and ecological communities will continue to be isolated, threatened by competition, predation and disease, and faced with eventual extinction. The 'Recovery Process' provides a strategic response to the heightened recognition of the threats facing Australia's native species and ecological communities. It requires cooperation between the Commonwealth, State, Territory and local governments, land managers, local communities and other interest groups.… Read More
