Australians have a love–hate relationship with spiders. Some spiders, such as the Redback and the Sydney Funnelweb, inspire fear. Yet Peacock Spiders, with their colourful fan-spreading courtship dances, have won rapturous appreciation worldwide.
A Field Guide to Spiders of Australia uses photographs of living animals to help people identify many of the spiders they encounter. Featuring over 1300 colour photographs, it is the most comprehensive account of Australian spiders ever published. With more than two-thirds of Australian spiders yet to be scientifically described, this book sets the scene for future explorations of our extraordinary Australian fauna.
This field guide will be enjoyed by naturalists and anyone with an interest in learning more about Australia''s incredible arachnids.

Organised into three key parts, it firstly examines the context in which the modern idea of North America came into being and how this concept has since fluctuated; covering the Neoliberal Moment, post 9/11 markets and reconsideration of post-war trade. The Companion then concentrates on the impact of NAFTA on issues the agreement dealt with both directly and indirectly, achieving varying degrees of success, and how those realities both promote and limit integration. Furthermore, it examines the North American relationship between trade and security, covering the Canada-US border, cyber-security, and continental defence, and presents critical conclusions related to the political, social, and economic costs of integration.
The Elgar Companion to North American Trade and Integration is an indispensable guide for academics of economics, political science and international relations. It would also be beneficial to civil servants working in trade bureaucracies or foreign and economic ministries, as well as researchers on public policy and opinion, lobbyists and legislative committee staff.

Twenty years after NAFTA, the consensus seems to be that the regional project in North America is dead. The trade agreement was never followed up by new institutions that might cement a more ambitious regional community. The Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP), launched with some fanfare in 2005, was quietly discontinued in 2009. And new cooperative ventures like the US‐Canada Beyond the Border talks and the US‐Mexico Merida Initiative suggest that the three governments have reverted to the familiar, pre‐NAFTA pattern of informal, incremental bilateralism. One could argue, however, that NAFTA itself has been buried, and yet the region somehow lives on, albeit in a form very different from regional integration in other parts of the world.
A diverse group of contributors, from the United States, Canada, and Mexico, with experience in academia, government service, think tanks and the private sector bring to bear a sophisticated and much needed examination of regional governance in North America, its historical origins, its connection to the regional distribution of power and the respective governments’ domestic institutions, and the variance of its forms and function across different issue areas. The editors begin by surveying the literature on North American regional politics, matching up developments there with parallel debates and controversies in the broader literatures on comparative regional integration and international policy coordination more generally. Six contributors later explore the mechanisms of policy coordination in specific issue-areas, each with an emphasis on a particular set of actors, and with its own way of characterizing the relevant political and diplomatic dynamics. Chapters on the political context for regional policy coordination follow leading to concluding remarks on the future of North America.
At a time when scholarly interest in North America seems to be waning, even while important and interesting political and economic developments are taking place, this volume will reinvigorate the study of North America as a region, to better understand its past, present and future.
