Abstract

I remember vividly my first day at Deakin. Australia Day 1979. Forty-two degrees centigrade. Being met at Tullamarine by an enthusiastic Iain Wallace, the Dean of the Faculty who drove us to Geelong. A wife and two young children in a single motel room. No airconditioning. No shops open. Hardly a restaurant in sight. Not a promising beginning! But, I consoled myself, I had only committed myself for three years before moving on to somewhere more interesting and important. Little did I know that the next decade would be the most exciting of my professional life!
