25 years after my father passed away, I came across a draft of a book he started. My editing and publishing leaves much of the original text intact and only clarifies or adds informative detail where necessary. I was proud and honoured to take this up where my father left off. Many books have been written about the Canadian sailors who fought in World War II in ships and the airmen who flew against the enemy in the sky but there have not been many books written about the young Canadians who engaged the enemy in tanks. Apart from Regimental Histories, their brave story is rarely told This book is an attempt to remedy that by telling the experience of a young boy becoming a man as a Canadian Grenadier Guard, away from home in England. 4th Canadian Armoured Division, 22nd Canadian Armoured Regiment (22CAR) Black & White Large Page Edition
Case Analyses for Abnormal Psychology, Second Edition uses case studies to explore the etiology, biology, and dynamics of psychiatric disorders in the DSM-5. Readers will learn about the new classifications and treatments for disorders while simultaneously reading the personal history of each consumer both before and during the development of each case.

This updated edition bridges advances in abnormal psychology and neuroscience in understanding mental illness.
The second edition of this widely cited textbook continues to provide a concise but comprehensive introduction to cave and subterranean biology, describing this fascinating habitat and its biodiversity. It covers a range of biological processes including ecosystem function, evolution and adaptation, community ecology, biogeography, and conservation. The authors draw on a global range of examples and case studies from both caves and non-cave subterranean habitats. One of the barriers to the study of subterranean biology has been the extraordinarily large number of specialized terms used by researchers; the authors explain these terms clearly and minimize the number that they use. This new edition retains the same 10 chapter structure of the original, but the content has been thoroughly revised and updated throughout to reflect the huge increase in publications concerning subterranean biology over the last decade.
