Rooted: An Australian history of bad language

Letting rip with a choice swear word or two has long been a very Aussie thing to do. From the defiant curses of the convicts and bullock drivers to the humour of Kath and Kim, Amanda Laugesen takes us on a fascinating journey through the history of Australia's bad language to reveal Australians preoccupations and concerns.
