- "The publication of 'An Australian Prayer Book' in 1978 was a significant step for Australian Anglicans. Prior to that, 'The Book of Common Prayer' had been used for over three hundred years. In Australia, apart from sympathetic deviations in accordance with section 4 of the Constitution, there was little opportunity for flexibility. The quality of that book, however, was such that it had served well. .... In drafting a revised prayer book, the Liturgical Commission had responded to many suggestions received since 1978, as well as comments about the more recent trial services. In addition, there have been workshops and provincial consultations. As a result, this new book will be significantly different in style from 'An Australian Prayer Book' while at the same time being, its obvious descendant. It represents liturgical evolution rather than revolution". -- Preface.
