'People of Japan' started as a selection of images shot by Mark Manzi during his visit to Japan in 2019. After meeting with Paul Humphries in Amsterdam they both decided to collaborate on a project that would be part image and part writing. In just under a month Mark travelled from Tokyo to Osaka and documented the people of Japan in the way he knows how. Paul has provided a unique observation about both the people of Japan and digital culture today. This has resulted in a collaborative image and copy project that closely looks at Japanese culture today. The images depict the lives of the Japanese population from children to the elderly. Whilst travelling across Japan Mark also collected bags, receipts and other items that tell the story about the daily life in Japan. The A4 sized book comes in a 10x4 unique sleeve and has over 40 photographs and scans of object collected across Japan spread over 44 pages, in 2 covers and 4 different sleeves.

People of Japan

Keith Walker

This edited volume reviews our past and present understanding of the ecology of Australian freshwater fishes. It compares patterns and processes in Australia with those on other continents, discusses the local relevance of ecological models from the northern hemisphere and considers how best to manage our species and their habitats in the face of current and future threats. In view of these challenges, the need for redress is urgent. The chapters are written by some of our foremost researchers and managers, developing themes that underpin our knowledge of the ecology, conservation and management of fish and fish habitats. For each theme, the authors formulate a synthesis of what is known, consider the need for new perspectives and identify gaps and opportunities for research, monitoring and management. The themes have an Australian context but draw upon ideas and principles developed by fish biologists in other parts of the world. The science of freshwater fish ecology in Australia has grown rapidly from its roots in natural history and taxonomy. This book offers an introduction for students, researchers and managers, one that the authors hope will carry Australian fish biology and resource management to new levels of understanding.
