A candid exploration of the 50-year partnership between UNSW and Australia's Defence Force. Since 1967, over 25,000 students have graduated from UNSW after studying at military institutions. Tom Frame examines this productive, yet complex, relationship.

Widening Minds traces the evolution of officer education, the creation of the Australian Defence Force Academy, and the challenges of civil-military partnerships. It delves into curriculum development, cadet controversies, and the ongoing effort to balance academic rigor with military needs. This insightful history reveals the aims and objectives of educating Australia's uniformed and civilian leaders.
