Sinopsis

Peter Beattie has been the premier of Queensland since 1998 and has long been admired for being ’one of the people’. Part memoir and part manifesto, this book explores: o the premier’s upbringing and the effect it had on forging his values and political style. o the contribution the Beattie Government has made to the State of Queensland. o Beattie’s views on Labor leaders, both past and present; and on Labor’s future. o His views on key issues, including health, education and social reform. o His relationship with Prime Minister John Howard. o His vision of turning Queensland into Australia’s ’Smart State’ through a newly focused education system. In his own direct style, the premier reflects on many important issues facing his party and the nation.

Acerca de los autores

Peter Beattie was born in 1952, the youngest of seven children. He was brought up by his grandmother in Atherton, nearly 2000 kilometres north of Brisbane. During his youth, he was a scout, a keen sportsman, and school captain and dux of Atherton State High School. It was there that he met Heather, the childhood sweetheart to whom he is still happily married. Peter and Heather have three teenage children. Mr Beattie is a keen supporter of the Brisbane Broncos and Townsville Cowboys and on his frequent visits to regional Queensland can often be seen wearing one of their shirts on his regular 5.30am walk.
