Tents of the Righteous
‘What about human rights, Mark? Do we have any?’ 2050. Set in post-apocalyptic England, Tents of the Righteous imagines what it would be like to be a minister in charge of a government no longer subject to the democratic process and a free press, and what it would be like to be an individual living in such a state.

Make Peace with Your Mind
The inner critic is the voice inside our heads reminding us that we are never “good enough.” It’s behind the insidious thoughts that can make us second-guess our every action and doubt our own value. The inner critic might feel overpowering, but it can be managed effectively. Meditation teacher and therapist Mark Coleman helps readers understand and free themselves from the inner critic using the tools of mindfulness and compassion. Each chapter offers constructive insights into what creates, drives, and disarms the critic; real people’s journeys to inspire and guide readers; and simple practices anyone can use to live a free, happy, and flourishing life.

Sustainable Production
The issues associated with sustainable production are among the most important facing the world in the early 21st century. While most of the scholarship in this area has been produced in the United States and Europe, not much has been written from a Canadian perspective. Sustainable Production establishes a Canadian presence in the sustainable production debate by analyzing the opportunities and constraints facing the public and private sectors as Canada strives to move public policy and industrial practice forward. Sustainable production envisions an industrial system that would maximize resource efficiency, minimize environmental impacts, and replenish natural capital, while providing safe and satisfying employment opportunities.
A Saturday Night with a Difference
Thomas Fitzwalter, a young builder, is waiting in a site porta cabin to price a job when he is a witness to an assault on a young woman. Through the porta cabin window Thomas captures images of the assault with a camera he has with him. One of the images is of a charismatic American preacher, so called, who is standing in the doorway of the trailer angrily gesticulating at the woman. The builder intervenes and a fight occurs in which he holds his own against the woman's assailant but when a second thug appears on the scene - from out of the blue - Thomas is overwhelmed by the bigger man. His quietus is approaching but he is saved from serious injury by the woman who takes off one of her shoes and using it club fashion batters the thug into submission. The consequences that follow from the fight unfold against a backdrop of building site values, police corruption, religious hypocrisy, various human relationships and social events, all of which have a bearing on one of the most dramatic Saturday nights Thomas has ever experienced.
