Australians Exposed
     
-
A photographic journey from birth to death
in Australia during the crucial years 1960 –1973.*
-
This was a time when our species began to
switch from explosive population growth to fertility decline, bringing
an end to 200,000 years of unprecedented evolutionary success.
-
Although undetectable at the time, that
underlying evolutionary transition now assumes gigantic significance
as our species heads towards population collapse.
-
Australians Exposed offers a unique 'snap-shot'
of this historic moment in time—historic, not merely in the
life of our nation, but in the life of our species.
   
Many of these pictures were gathered during Reg's years as
a newspaper photographer, first for The West Australian, and then
for The Independent in
Perth. He completed the book in Sydney while working as photographer and
picture editor for the Paul Hamlyn book publishing group. Most of these images
have recently been incorporated in a digital book entitled In
Black and White now available as a PDF on the Home Page.
