Not Slaves Not Citizens The Aboriginal Problem in WA
A P Biskup senior librarian and outsider recounts his long study of Western Australia's Aboriginal policy begun in 1960. The book traces administration history, personal journeys of migrants, and the evolving political milieu as Abel tribes, Black Australians, and state welfare shape debates amid new government policies and media attention.

Aboriginal policy and research insights from Peter Bishops study
The book traces white Australian imperialism toward Aborigines, argues for cultural and land concessions as the price of good relations, and notes the persistent belief in assimilating Aborigines into a brown Australian identity. It compares attitudes in the fifties, mentions university presses, and ends with an odd note on solidarity with a displaced Czech.
