The Public Face of African New Religious Movements in Diaspora
The growing pace of international migration, technological revolution in media and travel generate circumstances that provide opportunities for the mobility of African new religious movements (ANRMs) within Africa and beyond. ANRMs are furthering their self-assertion and self-insertion into the religious landscapes of Europe, the Americas, and Asia.

Born In Huronia
On September 28, 1941, the same day that Robert Popple was born in Penetanguishene, Ontario, Ted Williams ended his baseball season with a .406 batting average, a MLB record that still stands today. Patterned after Mark Twain’s recently published autobiography, this memoir describes Popple’s life growing up in 1950s Huronia and later, making his way in the world. With public confidence in nuclear power declining after the Three Mile Island accident and CANDU reactors supplying the lion’s share of Ontario’s electric power, Popple acted as the Ontario Hydro nuclear spokesman for five years. An exact transcript of his mother’s 53-year Family Log is included, a prized source of detail on early events.

Independence, Colonial Relics, and Monuments in the Caribbean
Independence, Colonial Relics, and Monuments in the Caribbean is a collection of critical perspectives on independence and the legacies of colonialism in the post-colonial Caribbean. The contributors examine themes relating to culture, identity, gender, nationhood, heritage and historic preservation in the post-independent Caribbean. In a twenty-first century context where calls for reparatory justice for the people of the Caribbean who have been disadvantaged by the effects of colonialism have intensified, this book is quite relevant as some chapters examine colonialism through relics, laws, statues and monuments, while other chapters explore the implications of African enslavement, the role of Indian indentureship, the Federation of the West Indies and the effect of the American based Black Lives Movement on the Caribbean.

The peculiar struggles of Canadian authors are writ large in the letters of Sinclair Ross.
Zootsuit Black
The world is panicking. In seven days time, millions will "disappear" when our universe changes reality. Dr. Jake Crux has proof that we must reacquaint ourselves with ancient powers. His experiment demonstrates that extrasensory perception is possible—but his superiors intend to subvert the results. Scott Anderson is convinced the Far Right is jeopardizing our chances of survival, and his participation in a cult reality show directly exposes him to their deadly threats. Meanwhile, both men are thrust into adversity in transitory dimensions: one battling mythical dragons, the other fighting Nazis in the Second World War. And they call this evolution?
