Features
34 Borderland (Cover Story)
The Nullarbor Plain is a vast, treeless wasteland in Australia's south, and home to many strange and unexplained stories. Tony Healy takes off on a journey across the Nullarbor, encountering naked nymphs, alien craft, glowing lights in the sky and cryptozoological phantoms.
42 Angels and Daimons
Belief in guardian angels has been growing ever stronger, it seems. And yet, argues Patrick Harpur, these messengers between Heaven and Earth have a diverse history and have not always been viewed as benign.
48 Agent Buzz
Psychoactive drugs have long had a place on the battlefield, explains David Hambling as he investigates the rumours surrounding BZ, a powerful hallucinogenic agent said to have been used in the current Iraq conflict.
