    'This edition includes papers on topics ranging from the reported sleep patterns of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children to a discussion of the meanings attached to drawings made by an Aboriginal historian from western Arnhem Land. As always, a common tie between the diverse set of topics is our commitment to promote the inherent rights of Indigenous peoples. This includes the right to self-determination and to be full and fair participants in research that impacts Indigenous people.'  (Editorial introduction)
