Ivan Pavlov’s dogs taught the world of psychology about conditioning in the 19th Century. Now Drew Pavlou, his near-namesake, and his dogs Max and Luna are repeating history. (Like a bull in a China shop, 25/5). With unabridged satire and a vibrant penchant for Shakespeare’s drama, the philosophy, history and English student is protesting the bully-boy tactics of the Beijing communists. Reversing the toxic conditioning of the public to years of selling out Australia to vested Chinese interests will require all his ingenuity. My faith in the next generation is being revived.
