The following is taken from the website of the publisher "The History of the Chiropractic & Osteopathic College of Australasia Frederick George Roberts founded the Chiropractic and Osteopathic College of Australasia in 1959. Prior to this time F.G. Roberts was a Natural Health Practitioner embracing Chiropractic, Osteopathy and Naturopathy and had clinics in Ballarat, Geelong, Sydney, Newcastle, Brisbane, Ipswich, Toowoomba, Maryborough, Bundaberg, Mackay, Adelaide, Perth and Fremantle. He visited all these clinics regularly and gave public lectures on natural healing. From 1959 onwards his interest turned more to Chiropractic. The Melbourne based College was originally located in South Yarra, moved to South Melbourne in 1965 and to East Malvern in 1974. In the mid 60's the term Osteopathic was dropped from the title of the College, even though the osteopathic component of the curriculum remained virtually unchanged. The original chiropractic component of the curriculum was styled on that of the Western States College of Chiropractic, the Indiana Chiropractic College and Palmer College of Chiropractic. In 1964 F.G. Roberts lead a deputation of chiropractors to the then Minister for Health, Sir Ronald Mack MLC, seeking registration for chiropractors. ". Signed By Author on Title Page. First Edition.
