From the editor’s couch

Over the next few issues ABR will continue the debate that we began in our March issue on issues in Australian cultural life. In this month’s ABR Veronica Brady responds to David Solomon’s review of The Law of the Land. Humphrey McQueen’s article prepares the ground for a major discussion piece in our one hundredth issue (May) on writing history in 1988. Wendy Bacon will take on the media monopoly and its effect on the publishing of books and responses to her article will appear in later issues in the year.

What this means of course is that you will have to subscribe if you want to find out who replied to whom on what question of cultural importance next month!
