Hashish!
This lavishly illustrated compendium of all things hashish appeals to illicit substance consumers, medical users, and history buffs alike. Author Robert Connell Clarke traces hashish origins, history, consumption, production and chemistry, from earliest times to the present. Traditional methods of collecting cannabis resin and processing it into hashish are described in detail. The second edition of Hashish boasts more than 270 photographs, drawings, maps, graphs, and tables, including 63 updated color photographs. It also includes bibliographical references and a useful index.
Cannabis
Cannabis: Evolution and Ethnobotany is a comprehensive, interdisciplinary exploration of the natural origins and early evolution of this famous plant, highlighting its historic role in the development of human societies. Cannabis has long been prized for the strong and durable fiber in its stalks, its edible and oil-rich seeds, and the psychoactive and medicinal compounds produced by its female flowers. The culturally valuable and often irreplaceable goods derived from cannabis deeply influenced the commercial, medical, ritual, and religious practices of cultures throughout the ages, and human desire for these commodities directed the evolution of the plant toward its contemporary varieties. As interest in cannabis grows and public debate over its many uses rises, this book will help us understand why humanity continues to rely on this plant and adapts it to suit our needs.
Extinct at Last
This book represents at least to Robert Clarke what every red-blooded Canadian boy should have been doing in the 50’s and 60’s, that is “getting some”. He has no time for contemporaries who did the “right thing” and then went home moaning with bulging trousers, not a bit of it. Robert was a disgusting boy and not unsurprisingly to his father became an even more disgusting old man as he writes revealingly in his only now published diary. Poor Robert had always assumed that his ravings would only see the light of day some hundred years after his passing, but due to unforeseen events the light of day is now. The old roue must be spinning in his grave with embarrassment as most of his players (now victims) are still with us and very much running for cover. Even in death Robert Clarke continues to romp haphazardly over the deep sensitivities of “Old Toronto” with many distinguished matrons now unable to show themselves in public due to “alleged“ youthful moments with young Robert. Sadly for Toronto there is the very ugly rumour of further diaries from the very spotted hand of Robert Clarke Esq to come!!

Fundamentals of Statistical Reasoning in Education
Fundamentals of Statistical Reasoning in Education 4th Edition, like the first three editions, is written largely with students of education in mind. Accordingly, Theodore Coladarci and Casey D. Cobb have drawn primarily on examples and issues found in school settings, such as those having to do with instruction, learning, motivation, and assessment. The emphasis on educational applications notwithstanding, the authors are confident that readers will find Fundamentals of Statistical Reasoning in Education 4th Edition of general relevance to other disciplines in the behavioral sciences as well. The 4th Edition of Fundamentals is still designed as a “one semester” book. The authors intentionally sidestep topics that few introductory courses cover (e.g., factorial analysis of variance, repeated measures analysis of variance, multiple regression). At the same time, effect size and confidence intervals are incorporated throughout, which today are regarded as essential to good statistical practice.
