Church Strategy In Flux The Australian Response to Modern Society
A 1966 collection edited by douse Setball and published with The Australian Council of Churches surveys how Australian churches face social change. It stems from a 1965 Sydney consultation on national Christian strategy, addressing population diversity, welfare gaps, Aboriginal needs, and Australia’s role in Southeast Asia. The volume argues for a Christian middle path between resisting all change and uncritically accepting every transformation, urging strategic renewal of church attitudes and engagement.

Genius Dog Saga Through War and Aftermath
The review surveys Grass’s novel and its multi generation narrative linking Senta Harras and Prinz to Danzig, the Fuehrer, and postwar Germany. It notes interwoven themes of guilt and conscience, compares Grass to Joyce Musil and Mann, and highlights the author’s balanced blend of seriousness and humor. The piece also critiques the book’s broader historical framing and its portrayal of Europe’s decline and rising superpowers.
