------------------------------------------------------ Public History Review, a refereed journal published by the Australian Centre for Public History at the University of Technology, Sydney and UTSePress, is now available free of charge online. Public History Review (PHR) has been published annually since 1992. In that year, we hoped in the editorial that: 'Public History Review functions, metaphorically speaking, at the point where all rivers meet; that is, it provides firstly a forum for historians working in heritage, government departments, radio, television, schools, museums, freelance and any other area of the culture, who wish to pursue some issues relating to their work in greater depth, reflect on some issue of practice, comment on other historical representations or extend our knowledge of public history as a field of study. Secondly we welcome contributions from others such as conservation architects, archaeologists and. [others] who wish to comment on history-related matters. And finally we aim to engage academic historians more fully with the concerns of the public, and public history work; to inform and challenge, to articulate the creative tensions between theory and practice.' We have chosen to join the digital revolution in this format to facilitate the global exchange of ideas and we look forward to furthering the journal's original aims and objectives. We also look forward to your involvement with the journal. To subscribe go to http://epress.lib.uts.edu.au/journals/phr and choose REGISTER. Table of Contents Articles Bollywood Dreams?
