Ross Fitzgerald hasn't touched alcohol for many years now. But it has been on his mind a lot recently, having co-written a fascinating account of alcohol in Australia. It's a relationship that's both lively and volatile.

His new book is titled Under the Influence: a history of alcohol in Australia. Authors - Ross Fitzgerald and Trevor L. Jordan.

Cressida Campbell is famous for her distinctive woodblock paintings and prints.

The book that caused her so many sleepless nights (literally!) is simply titled The Woodblock Painting of Cressida Campbell.
