Spinifex authors Melinda Tankard Reist and Ariel Salleh are both featured in this month's Arena magazine.

In an editorial on pornification, Alison Caddick states, "The term ‘pornification’ has recently been given prominence in books by Melinda Tankard Reist and others" referring to Getting Real: Challenging the Sexualisation of Girls, edited by Tankard Reist.

Elsewhere in the magazine, Ariel Salleh, author of Eco-Sufficiency & Global Justice evaluates "green deals" asking if they are a new way of doing business or just business as usual.
