Australia’s leading public policy think tank, the Grattan Institute, today announced its ‘Prime Minister’s Summer Reading List’ for 2023.
Each year the independent think tank selects its best books of the past 12 months and offers its recommendations not just for the reading pile of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, but for all Australians to put on their to-read list.
