Australia System

No more cute koala bears, bouncy kangaroos, or fuzzy wallabies. Now, everything is mutated and aggressive? Who made the spiders so big? The world's most dangerous continent just got a lot more dangerous, and no one, not even the alien Galactics who arrive, are ready for it.

Kira's worries are only just beginning. She has a newly minted alien alliance to nurture, a settlement to run, and Skills to master, all while wrangling her children in an apocalypse. Hemmed in by continually respawning mutations, the settlement threatens to outgrow its borders, pushing their safe zone into monster-held territory. They can't stop growing and Leveling, but neither will the monsters.

Psychiatrist Dr Mark Cross has spent most of his adult life working in the mental health system. He also suffers from anxiety, as do three out of four Australians at some point in their lives, so he knows first-hand the challenges, successes and failures facing consumers, patients and professionals. What he has discovered is that while Australia’s physical health system is world-renowned, its mental health system falls miserably short.

Two weeks into the System Apocalypse, and the transformations are just beginning. Mutated insects, carnivorous toads, and angry drop bears were not on the school curriculum, but when the apocalypse hits, you roll with it. Parenting a teenager has prepared Kira for the worst; she just didn’t expect that to include the end of the world. A menacing conglomerate of alien hunters is breathing down their necks, and new threats lurk just over the hills. Kira and the rest of the Australian survivors of Brisbane must level up, bolster defenses, and prepare for an incoming invasion.

What's worse than Australian wildlife? Mutated Australian wildlife. The System Apocalypse has come to Australia, altering native organisms and importing even more menacing creatures to the most dangerous continent on Earth. For Kira Kent, plant biologist, the System arrives while she's pulling an all nighter at work with her pair of kids in tow. Now, instead of mundane parental concerns like childcare and paying the bills, she's got to figure out how to survive a world where already deadly flora and fauna have grown even more perilous

Tristan White's story started like many others. He had a dream to work in a job that inspired him. He didn't find that job, so he created it. In 2004, The Physio Co (TPC) was born with one team member: Tristan White. In the 13 years since, TPC has become a remarkable health care success story based upon fast growth and a thriving, systemised company culture. Tristan's obsession with creating an inspiring place to work for himself and others has resulted in more than a decade of learning, testing and refining.

Die System-Apokalypse kommt nach Australien, wo sie die ansässigen Organismen verwandelt und dem ohnehin schon gefährlichsten Kontinenten der Welt immer noch gefährlichere Kreaturen bringt. Kira Kent, ihres Zeichens Pflanzenbiologin, überrascht das System, als sie gerade mit ihren beiden Kindern im Schlepptau eine Nachtschicht auf der Arbeit einlegt.

In this manifesto, Dr Cross takes a deep dive into mental illness – who suffers, why, how we treat them and what we need to do better. Written in Dr Cross's warm and entertaining style, Mental State includes his own stories of working inside the system, as well as the experiences of patients attempting to navigate it and the practitioners working within it.

Kiras Sorgen haben gerade erst begonnen. Sie hat eine frischgebackene Allianz mit Außerirdischen zu pflegen, eine Siedlung zu leiten und Fähigkeiten zu erlernen, und das alles, während sie sich mitten in einer Apokalypse mit ihren Kindern rumschlägt.

Zwei Wochen System-Apokalypse, aber die Transformationen haben gerade erst begonnen. Mutierte Insekten, fleischfressende Kröten und wütende Yetis standen bis jetzt noch nie auf dem Stundenplan, doch wenn die Welt untergeht, muss man sich eben anpassen. Als Mutter eines Teenagers war Kira auf alles gefasst, nur nicht auf das Jüngste Gericht.
