In Salad Days, Ronnie Scott interrogates our current obsession with food – and asks whether it''s actually such a bad thing. Salad Days takes us via the world''s best restaurants in Noma and elBulli, and more humble yet no less delicious restaurants and cafés in Melbourne, while interrogating how we use food to relate to one another, the particular joy of hearing about someone else''s experience of a glorious meal (even via social media), and why members of gen Y are spending extravagantly on food when they can''t afford real estate. Scott looks at the more challenging aspects of this conspicuous consumption as well – ethical eating, sustainability, class concerns. If food offers us a ''curious mixture between comfort and disturbance, staying put and going far'', is that something to worry about, or to celebrate? Salad Days is a fascinating and lyrical look at a particular moment in our history and society, and an important contribution to an ongoing debate about how we eat.

How are Australian comics made and read? How do changes in comics and graphic storytelling over the past forty years intersect with our changing ideas about history, culture, community, creativity and technology? In Folio: Essays on Australian Comics, interdisciplinary scholars and world-leading makers pose questions about Australian comics, including through visual essays, asking how comics move out into community, industry, society, and disciplines both cognate and distant. It first examines the cultures and communities of Australian comics, from Indigenous cultural contexts to DIY zine fairs, and international markets to the graphic recording industry. It then focuses on practices and readings of individual comics, exploring individual practices and analysing Australian work, from government-commissioned comics with explicit social purpose to comics that employ augmented reality.Chapter "Lessons from My Journey into Australian Comics" is licensed under the terms of the Creative Commons AttributionNonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License via Springerlink.
