Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Every year thousands of foreign tourists come to New Zealand to enjoy the scenery and cultural experiences on offer here. Yet many New Zealanders don't take these opportunities themselves and have limited knowledge of their own country. This book is both a celebration of the best that New Zealand has to offer and an encouragement to make the most of it. The Automobile Association has been running a high-profile and very popular campaign concentrating on the joys of our own country. People often think of foreign travel as the only exotic holiday to be had, but there is so much to see and do here at home.

Paperback. Condition: Good. Gareth Morgan couldn't decide whether he believed in climate change or not, so he hired the best international scientists to answer his questions and these are his findings. Combined with anecdotes from his own recent trips to Antarctica and the Arctic this is something completely unique in books about climate change - somebody who has approached the topic with an open mind, somebody who has the resources to explore such a topic and somebody who has personally investigated all of the issues. So what was his conclusion? Read the book to find out.
