The third volume of The New Age focuses on Matt Goderich's parents and on the social upheavals during the 1920s and 1930s. Hood moves from scenes of money burning at the Canadian mint, to moments of panic at the Winnipeg General Strike, to penetrating analyses of style and fashion as they emerged in Canada during the Depression years.

The Boomer Factor is the latest in Reginald Bibby's best-selling series of books on social trends in Canada. In The Boomer Factor Bibby, one of the country's foremost trend-trackers and social commentators, examines just what kind of country the Boomers will be leaving behind. Drawing on his well-known and unparalleled series of national surveys of adults and teenagers spanning the years 1975 to 2005, he identifies ten important trends, including significant changes pertaining to: the pervasiveness of diversity, the decline of community, the rise of the desire for input, the new basis for decision-making, the new sense of time, and the information explosion. He also exposes myths about what people want and the decline of civility, conventional family aspirations, and religion. Bibby offers provocative assessments of the implications of these patterns for social and personal well-being in Canada, in the process evaluating the Boomer legacy. He again displays his trademark ability to present important research findings in a journalistic and engaging style. The Boomer Factor has been greeted with enthusiasm, with the national media giving the book major attention.

In 1919, Sir William Osler, MD, born in Ontario, was the Regius Professor of Medicine at Oxford University and the most famous medical doctor in the English-speaking world. In that year he wrote his Reminiscences about his personal and professional relationship 30 years earlier with the American poet Walt Whitman. Dr. Osler died before his manuscript could be published. Now, thanks to the exclusive permission granted by the Board of Curators of the Osler Library at McGill University, Philip W. Leon presents for the first time the complete text of Osler's Reminiscences, revealing the extent of the doctor's relationship with Walt Whitman.
