Notes

Too smart for kids? The state of the nation's gene pool. Saving our brains: new hope for therapies to protect and enhance our ageing brains. Catching the Burt bug: Heading to the Deep South in search of Burt Munro's legacy. Speaking out about suicide: people everywhere are fighting to break suicide's silence. The wild bunch: Film NZ promotes the country's assets to foreign movie makers. My second mid-life crisis: going bush, going Buddhist, going somewhere. Common ground: Gaylene Preston's new tv drama about post-earthquake Christchurch. Art NZ: Owen Dippie.
