People often ask me to explain how the mind of a genius works. I explain that is seeing connections that others don’t, a good memory recall, and a wide ranging interest in knowledge. The final piece is the ability to put everything together in a way that solves problems, and makes the people think. When I opened and started to read Australia 2050, my first impression was that it is the soul of a genius living in a book.

But now with the pleasantries out of the way, let me tell you what is so exciting about this book. The book is designed to create debate, offer suggestions, and inspires the minds of today to think and plan for our future. This is a powerful publication of a total picture of Australia based in history and projected forward within a local and global context. You can almost feel that this a history book from the future which fell back in time, it ignites and drives you to reflect forward on the current state of interplays between Australians and their interactions with both the environment and the global village.
Of special note is the section on Australia's National Security And Intelligence. Requirements In A Transforming Global Environment. This area of the book is of most interest to our membership, and it is a compressive analysis of the challenges we face today. What is most interesting is the books ability to create linkages to other parts of the books, with the other considerations of our age and discipline. It makes you realise the complexities and dynamic connections between National Security and the infrastructure of Australian society, government and the business community. This book makes you think.
In closing, I would like to suggest that if you get the opportunity, find a copy of this book, read it, and prepare yourself for the debate that this book is sure to start.
