Everything you need to know about the Australian Constitution its past, present and future.

The People's Guide to the Australian Constitution illustrates how, far from being an unchangeable, technical legal contract, the Australian Constitution gives people the power to participate in and decide the shape of government and the policies it adopts. Leading legal academics Rosalind Dixon and William Partlett shed light on what Governor-General John Kerr did not acknowledge about the Constitution when he dismissed the Whitlam government, the tension between Australia's Christian settler-colonial constitutional identity and the recognition of First Nations peoples, the advantages and risks of constitutional change and much more.

At almost 125 years old, Australia's Constitution is one of the oldest in the world, and while this has brought stability, it also gives the Australian people an opportunity to participate in adapting it to changing times.

'If the Voice referendum has taught us anything, it is that there is a huge gap in civic education in this country. This book will foster better understanding of our Constitution and empower Australians to become more informed voters and citizens, which is a win for our democracy.' Jennifer Robinson, Human Rights Lawyer

'The People's Guide to the Australian Constitution is a comprehensive and readable explanation of its history and working. A basic understanding of our Constitution is essential to our representative democracy. It is the legal infrastructure for the operation of our democracy, the maintenance of the rule of law, the limitation of official power and the protection of important freedoms.' The Hon Robert French AC

'An important resource that inspires Australians toward a transformative, genuine sovereign democracy and understanding.' Waskam Emelda Davis, Emeritus City of Sydney Councillor

'The People's Guide to the Australian Constitution brings public power closer to the people. By celebrating the strengths and commitments embedded in our constitutional story, readers are invited to question, to understand, and to participate in the story of our nation, whilst offering a vital understanding of the legal guardrails that have shaped Australia. In Ros and William's skilled hands, we are empowered to claim our role in shaping the future of Australia's democracy.' Liesl Tesch, Member of the Legislative Assembly and double Paralympian

It’s wonderful!!
Size: 2' x 3' (Single Pelt), Color: Brown, Size: 2' x 3' (Single Pelt), Color: Brown
The product is wonderful! You know it is real, coz the smell doesn’t go away. I use it to meditate and cannot how nicely it created the perfect comforting barrier to help elevate my experience. I however want to find alternatives coz I stopped using animal products after turning a vegetarian. The size (it is bigger in person than in the pic) and color(brown) are perfect for what I do and doesn’t need much/any maintenance! The white however needs a lot of attention and care.I’m sure it would last a decade and the weight is just right too!

Beautiful lux sheepskin, you won't be disappointed!
Size: Single Pelt/2 ft x 3 ft, Color: Grey
I just got this today, 2 day delivery. It's a beautiful silver grey 2'x3', no smell, no shedding, super soft and has a luxurious feel. I can't believe it's real and so affordable! I have it draped on an ottoman in front of the couch. I love it and already want to buy a few more for my mid century modern couch and chairs. So chic! Highly recommend!

Very nice if you aren't too pick on actual color.
Size: Single Pelt/2 ft x 3 ft, Color: Blue
Colors may vary. I really liked this, it was the perfect size and that perfect combination of soft and fluffy, but not being "too fluffy" and looking like a shaggy dog that needed a haircut. My only complaint was the color. Supposed to be blue, and I know monitors and lighting distort stuff but this was an obvious turquoise/teal. Much much greener than I was looking for. I could have made any variant of an actual blue work from powder baby to practically navy, but not this. I had to return, but other than the color, this seemed to be a very nice rug. Sad the color was so off.
