An original perspective on our understanding of place, time, nation and science.

This ground-breaking book examines three celebrated scientific landscapes: Adelaide's Hallett Cove, Lake Callabonna in the far north of South Australia, and the World Heritage listed Willandra Lakes Region of New South Wales. It offers philosophical insights into significant issues of heritage management, an original perspective on our relationship with Australian landscapes and our understanding of place, time, nation and science.

Kirsty Douglas is a heritage specialist with a background in geology and history. She has been an ARC Postdoctoral Fellow in the History Program of the Research School of Social Sciences at the Australian National University and completed her PhD in environmental history at the same institution in 2004.
