Y. Vonne Beck survives the abduction of her beloved child Jonathan by his long-lost father, and mother and son are reunited. But she now faces an excruciating breakup with the man she finally found love with, Asher Zilbeh. Vonne sets out to change her life: a new apartment, a new career and a new husband. She works hard to better herself and even harder to extricate Asher from her soul. A humble request for leniency takes Vonne to New York City. A terminal diagnosis melts her hardened heart and she relents to Ken's appeal to visit his son in person, after she'd had him banned from entering Canada six years ago. In a city of millions of people it seems unimaginable; still, there on a sidewalk in the heart of Manhattan he stops and stares at her. Vonne has not seen Asher since he snatched Jonathan away from Ken in Japan and returned him to her waiting arms. Her heart begins to race. She can't bear to see him and rushes off as tears flood her eyes. That happenstance and continued coincidental meetings spark a raging fire in Asher. He needs to find her, to get through to her. He wants her to know the truth. However, the truth comes with a tower of guilt. A profound hurt burgeons as painful realities set in, take root and sprout ineffable regret. Vonne's busy yet stable life is suddenly inundated with torturous complexity-with the truth buried deep inside. Vonne lets go of her pragmatic sensibilities and follows her heart, which leads her through a maze of emotional turmoil: shock, awe, anger, dread and fear. Can love be waiting on the other side, and will she find the strength, at last, to accept it?

Does each generation necessarily stand on its own, divided from all others by a gap in perspective and understanding? Is meaningful communication between generations an impossibility? Mind the Gap puts this notion to the test in a unique mother-son literary collaboration. By challenging each other to write with openness and honesty on a series of random topics chosen for them, the authors discover far more commonality than conflict in their positions on deeply personal, yet universally relevant, matters of love, life and learning. Even where their views diverge, they celebrate their differences with the same humour, humility and respect as their similarities. Their individual voices are both intelligent and engaging, but offer vastly different approaches to each topic, making every piece a fresh and surprising read. And as mother and son, the relationship underlying their words is inspiring. Together they show readers that mutual respect can bridge any perceived generational (or other) divide. It is a timely message that will resonate with any age or generation.

Can Canada lead the world in making democracy work for everyone, including for your benefit? Can democracies be redesigned to meaningfully solve even the most challenging problems such as climate change? The answer, CREDIBLY PROVEN by Andy Bilik, is a resounding YES! By uniquely defining who Canadians are, and establishing a new political philosophy called Democratic Restructuralism, the author clearly shows, in concrete terms, what is wrong with democracy and what is required to make it work for the common good. He reveals "how" to "Make democracy great again," beginning in Canada. In doing so, Bilik has achieved what most people, including world leaders and prominent academics, would argue is impossible! Mending the Flag, Healing the World, is an incredibly thought provoking work. Simultaneously, it is a well researched book that debunks contemporary theories regarding why democracy does not appear to work for most of us. Since Bilik has discovered a positive and real way humanity can progress forward, during this critical and divisive juncture of world history, his book may be one of the most important non-fiction works of the 21st century. You should read it!

Student disruption at school can take up an enormous amount of time, energy, and even financial resources. Confrontations can result not only in personal stress for both students and teachers, but in conflicts that involve families and the larger community. However, it's not always easy to know what to do or how to respond. In this original and highly engaging book, Emma Van der Klift suggests that "cross-pollination" - applying the lenses of one field to the issues faced by another - can generate unexpected insights and open new ways to think and act. Based on a year's worth of fascinating interviews with hostage negotiators from all over North America, this book shows how crisis negotiators de-escalate distraught individuals through communication. Instead of relying on either punishment, reward or directives - something commonly done in education - hostage negotiators rely on listening and support and are successful in resolving more than 90 percent of the issues they are called upon to negotiate without loss of life, injury, or the use of coercion. This book offers a wealth of suggestions and advice from negotiators, and is not only about how we can help someone to de-escalate when they are in crisis, but also, and perhaps most importantly, about how we can learn to effectively de-escalate ourselves during difficult interchanges.
