Dear Friends, Colleagues,

I hope this email finds you warm and comfy in chilly Canberra, or wherever else you may happen to be. I am writing this with a little bit of excitement and an unhealthy dose of trepidation to personally invite you to my book launch on 13 August 2026.

It will be a fairly relaxed event, and I am delighted to be joined by Sarah Logan and Greg Fealy, who have very kindly agreed to be discussants.

I understand the launch falls quite late in the day, especially for those with family duties. But if you can pop by even for a fragment of it or just drop in to say hi during the reception starting at 5.30pm, it would make my day 😊

Best,

Nick
