Description:
What is the place of Australia’s colonial memorials in today’s society? Do we remove, destroy or amend? Monumental Disruptions investigates how these memorials have been viewed, and are viewed, by First Nations people to find a way forward.
In June 2020, on the heels of Australia’s James Cook anniversary commemorations and statue-toppling Black Lives Matter protests in the USA, dozens of police were sent to guard a statue of Cook in Hyde Park, Sydney. Despite the police presence, two women spraypainted ‘sovereignty never ceded’ across the statue.
Scenes like this are being repeated around the world as societies reassess memorials that no longer reflect today’s values. Should they be removed, destroyed or amended? Monumental Disruptions looks for answers. It investigates why commemorations were erected, their meaning for Aboriginal people in Australia, both then and now, and it compares Australia’s experience with that overseas.
Those who question colonial commemorations have been called ‘UnAustralian’; but, in Australia, Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal communities are working together to forge new ways to mark the past. This timely book is essential reading for anyone interested in how a society commemorates and acknowledges its complex history.

Honestly, I never thought I would enjoy studying this much!
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
I was so grateful for this book's excellence that I opened the Amazon website during my break to write a review.
I wanted to brush up on my skills before taking my first Python class in the fall, so I was looking for a beginner's book I could study on my own over the summer. Since I had no coding experience, I needed a book that explained even the smallest details step-by-step. I've been studying with the goal of completing two chapters a week since August. I'm currently on Chapter 8, and it's been so much fun! Honestly, I never thought I would enjoy studying this much.
I spent two days on practice problem 8-8 (though I spent most of the time lying on the couch screaming, "Why can't I do this?" than actually solving the problem). However, after some time, I reconsidered and re-tested the problem, and today, on the third day, I finally figured out what the issue was! I resisted the urge to ask AI or look at the GitHub code the author had posted. Instead, I solely relied on the book to solve the problem. The information in the book was more than enough. I'm proud of myself!
If you're a beginner like me and just starting out with Python, I highly recommend this book! It seems unlikely I'll be able to finish all the remaining chapters and projects before the fall semester, but I'd like to take the time over the weekend to finish this book if possible. I have no doubt that the detailed, helpful explanations and systematic practice problems will help me solidify my fundamental Python coding skills.

Very informative and easy to understand
Format: Paperback
I love how Charles wrote this book, I read it slowly throughout the year and was easily able to digest all the examples and illustrations provided and have got a better and broader understanding of Code, software, hardware, batteries, lightbulbs, history and much more!
