Title: The Adelaide Dental School 1917 To 2017
Author: Rogers, J.; Townsend, G.; Brown, T.
Abstract: The Adelaide Dental School has built a proud history over a period of 100 years, gaining a reputation as one of the world's top dental schools. This book records some of the key events that have shaped the School's excellence in teaching and research, whilst also exploring the lives of some of the personalities who have driven change within the School. In addition, the book considers both the future of dental education as well as likely developments in dental research and practice, and the way these two things are linked. The book also contains three chapters in which former students of the Dental School provide personal viewpoints of their education at the Adelaide Dental School. The final appendices contain a potpourri of archival material, including copies of documents and examples of lecture notes and examination papers. As a whole, this book provides both a record of the key achievements that have made the School what it is today and an insight into what the next 100 years may hold for the School.2018-01-01T00:00:00ZThe Waite: a social and scientific history of the Waite Agricultural Research Institute

Title: The Waite: a social and scientific history of the Waite Agricultural Research Institute
Author: Zeitz, Lynette
Abstract: The Waite Campus is one of the world’s leading agricultural research and teaching precincts. It is fitting for this updated history to be published in 2014, the 140 years anniversary of the University of Adelaide. It is 100 years since Peter Waite formally bequested his Urrbrae property to the University in 1914, and 90 years since the University established the Waite Agricultural Research Institute in 1924. Former University Registrar V. A. Edgeloe published The First Fifty Years 1924-1974 in 1984. Since then the Waite Campus has added several large new research institutes and has strengthened its reputation. Lynette Zeitz has completed this detailed but engaging history to bring the story of the Waite Campus up to date. Her approach of focusing on the people – their personalities as well as their commitment to science – creates a lively and definitive work.2014-01-01T00:00:00ZThe letters of Sarah Elizabeth Jackson (1910-1922)

Title: The letters of Sarah Elizabeth Jackson (1910-1922)
Author: Jackson, Sarah Elizabeth; Wall, Barbara
Abstract: ‘My sister was a wonderful woman’. So wrote George Canning Jackson on 7 February 1964. His sister, Sarah Elizabeth Jackson (known to friends and family by her second name, Elizabeth), had died of consumption on 14 January 1923, aged thirty-two. Canning Jackson was writing to Dr Helen Mayo, to whom he sent all the letters written by Elizabeth that he had been able to find. These letters were later deposited in the Rare Books and Special Collections section of the Barr Smith Library in the University of Adelaide, and are here presented in this volume with an introduction by Barbara Wall. Elizabeth had a remarkable influence on the young men and women of Adelaide, especially those connected with the University of Adelaide. Her exceptional personality, her extraordinary powers of thinking and communicating, her thoughtfulness, her devotion to the causes of women and children, her passion for redressing wrongs, her wit and delight in nonsense all shine through these letters, and help us to understand the outstanding impact and influence she had on her contemporaries.2018-01-01T00:00:00ZProof in modern litigation: evidence law and forensic science perspectives

Editor: Caruso, D.R.; Wang, Z.
Abstract: This is a collection of the selected proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Evidence Law and Forensic Science (ICELFS 2015), held in Adelaide, South Australia, 20-23 July 2015. The Proceedings critique contemporary issues in evidence law and forensic science from the perspectives of law, forensic science, political science and cultural study. The principal focus is on the intersection of evidence laws and forensic science; in recognition that judicial decisions are dependent upon the accurate determination of facts. The search for just processes and reliable sciences is the quest for rectitude in decision-making: a concern for all courts in all countries.
