Australia Day 1988 was a party. There was also a demo, of course. Protests on Australia Day have been a thing since the first Day of Mourning in 1938. A few thousand protestors gathered around Mrs Macquarie’s Chair, a high vantage point half a kilometre east of the iconic Sydney Opera House, from whence they could boo the First Fleet re-enactment as it sailed past.

Editor’s Note: This article was first published in Areo Magazine in November 2018. There is more in heaven and earth than can be dreamt of in any human philosophy. This is why science is not philosophy. Those who map the skies, observe the patterns of a school of fish, or dissect molecular processes are well aware of this. We scientists wander dark and strange lands, and encounter startling landscapes and creatures beyond our wildest imaginations.

The Light Eaters: How the Unseen World of Plant Intelligence Offers a New Understanding of Life on Earthby Zoë Schlanger. Harper, 2024 ($29.99)For a species entirely dependent on plants for food and a livable planet, we give plants curiously little respect. Museums and nature documentaries usually relegate them to the background, mere scenery for the action of animal evolution. This is an ancient bias.
