    Abstract This paper focuses on the short, but brilliant career of the Australian anatomist and medical educator, John Irvine Hunter. Hunter's biography is presented within the context of the early twentieth century anatomy and medical education. John Irvine Hunter was not only the youngest ever Professor of Anatomy at the University of Sydney, but he was also undeniably brilliant with regard to teaching and researching anatomy, physiology and anthropology. While his short career answered many questions in these fields, it raised more questions regarding what Hunter may have accomplished if only he had been given the chance. These unanswered questions have spawned what we now affectionately refer to as the "Hunter Legend". His most ambitious work on the dual innervation of striated muscle, while eventually disproven, formed an important stepping-stone in the bridging of anatomy and physiology. His thought-provoking concepts were viewed with much intrigue, and at the time were very well received. CONCLUSION: Hunter remains one of the most prominent and inspiring figures in the history of Australian anatomy and medicine.

    Abstract This book is an annotated edition of John Stow's Summarie of the Chronicles of England (1604). Stow (1524/5-1605) was a citizen historian who offers a concise, narrative history of England from the earliest time to the reign of James I, who succeeded Elizabeth in 1603. This abridged chronicle offered readers of lower social and economic status an accessible national history than was available in his own larger works or those of other writers of his time

    Abstract Restructuring of institutional long-term care was undertaken using predictions of future bed need with assumptions made on incidence rates of clients defined by type of disability, survival, and demographic changes. Recent substantial increase in the population rate of clients seeking placement across all degrees of disability, coincident with new facilities for those with modest disability, occurred. Consequently, more appropriate housing and supervised care beds, and more limited downsizing of nursing homes will be required.

    Abstract Introduction: Faculty development (FD) is integral to the implementation of educational programmes. However, attracting new faculty is challenging. Competition is a motivator for learning at an undergraduate level; however, incorporating competition to engage faculty in continued FD has not been explored. In the context of a new strategy to embed in situ simulation in postgraduate education across our healthcare group, and drawing on motivational theory, we asked 'does competition drive engagement in new FD initiatives?'
    Methods: We conducted semi-structured interviews with nine healthcare professionals (HCPs) who had participated in an in situ simulation 'SimStars' competition. Guided by thematic analysis and borrowing from constructivist grounded theory, we explored participants' motivations for entering a competition, their experiences of competition throughout their education and how this process impacted on their engagement in FD.
    Results: Three overarching concepts arose and challenged our understanding of the role of competition as a motivator: (1) 'Competition is a necessary evil'; (2) 'It really is the taking part that counts'; and (3) 'Teamwork makes the dream work'. In contrast to previously published work, our results suggest participants view competition negatively and as a means to career progression. However, the opportunity to work as part of an (interprofessional) team towards a goal, and to develop a new skill (i.e. the process), was more motivating for participants than 'winning' a competition.
    Conclusion: Competition may not provide a motivation for HCPs to engage in FD and may be a barrier. Providing collaboration opportunities, faculty coaching and the chance to develop new skills could enhance engagement.
