Everyman's Rules for Scientific Living

Everymans Rules cover

A depiction of the fragile relationship between man, science and nature.  Sensual and witty, it tells of the efforts of a young woman and her scientist husband to help farmers in the Mallee during the 1930s. Important questions are raised about the ecological crisis now facing much of the inland and there is strong resonance with contemporary Australia.
