This is a book about passion, danger, departures and arrivals. It's about the desires and disappointments of people seeking Australia's protection who arrive by plane. It's also about the dishonesty and deceit practised by the Australian Department of Immigration whose xenophobic nature goes all the way back to the White Australia Policy, terra nullius and the early days of the colony. Ngareta Rossell, Journalist. This is a valuable book as it can tell us about our own attitudes. It is for the reader to judge whether a system that can give rise to the cruelty examined here accords with our international commitments and those values that Australians feel should inform our dealings with others. Hon. Greg James AM QC This book tells the uplifting story of human endeavour to help people tackle the challenges of the Australian legal system, as it applies to non-citizens arriving by planes with valid entry visas, but who thereafter claim protection under the Migration Act 1958 on grounds expressed in the Refugees Convention 1951. From the Foreword by Hon. Michael Kirby AC CMG
