'Instead of talking at the reader these authors present informed ideas and observations for thought and also reference one another. This topic can be nerve wracking as there are so many different connotations associated with the word 'decolonisation' currently. How do you view the way life is going for our people and country? Consider some of the ongoing problems.... personal, social, environmental, cultural, fiscal and political, which never diminish but become more complex because of the way we are currently viewing them. I do encourage people from all walks of life to read this small but powerful book to gain an insight into the current conversation surrounding a credible future that could provide huge gains for all.'
