Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Marta Elzinga has been searching for a sign. When she spots an elusive mink on the shoreline of the Toronto Island Airport, she thinks it is her sign. The pigeon that boards the subway at Bathurst Station is the second sign. But how to read these dispatches? Plagued with indecision and prone to magical thinking, Marta needs direction. A floundering guidance counsellor, she struggles to meet the needs of her charming but unstable husband as well as those of the students for whom she is responsible. During an annual architectural event in Toronto, Marta visits an abandoned subway station and runs into a former student. He invites her to join him in some urban exploration. And so, in the late evenings, Marta comes to traverse the dangerous geography beneath the city’s streets. Through these journeys, Marta confronts the coils in her own thinking about providence, chance, and personal responsibility. A complex and inspiring novel, The Dove in Bathurst Station is about finding hope and reconciliation.

Catch Me When I Fall

By: Patricia Westerhof

Welcome to Poplar Grove, a farming community of three generations of Dutch-Canadians. Life in the new world has not become less complicated as the decades have passed, and now, a set of dying customs is about to collide with the ways of a new generation. The balance is shifting between people comfortable holding hymnals and cleaning cows teats and those who are uneasy with traditional expectations. A young man questions the choices of his ancestors; a woman mourns the loss of her disabled son, but also wishes to end the ritual state of mourning; a girl cannot choose between her brother's new-age beliefs and her parents' old-world traditions. These people are bound by old-world expectations and the demands of an agricultural life.

Fatigue

Neural and Muscular Mechanisms

By: Patricia A. Pierce

This volume describes the current state of our knowledge on the neurobiology of muscle fatigue, with consideration also given to selected integrative cardiorespiratory mechanisms. Our charge to the authors of the various chapters was twofold: to provide a systematic review of the topic that could serve as a balanced reference text for practicing health-care professionals, teaching faculty, and pre-and postdoctoral trainees in the biomedi cal sciences; and to stimulate further experimental and theoretical work on neurobiology. Key issues are addressed in nine interrelated areas: fatigue of single muscle fibers, fatigue at the neuromuscular junction, fatigue of single motor units, metabolic fatigue studied with nuclear magnetic resonance, fatigue of the segmental motor system, fatigue involving suprasegmental mechanisms, the task dependency of fatigue mechanisms, integrative (largely cardiorespiratory) systems issues, and fatigue of adapted systems (due to aging, under-and overuse, and pathophysiology). The product is a volume that provides compre of processes that operate from the forebrain to the contractile proteins.

Teaching Poetry in the Secondary English Classroom [microform]

By: Patricia Westerhof

This thesis asks the question, why teach poetry in the secondary English classroom? Beginning with an explanation of what experiences and observations led the author to this research question, the thesis traces the history of teaching poetry in Ontario's high schools, and identifies the trends today in poetry curricula, texts and methodology. The thesis argues that the main goal of poetry in the classroom should be to foster enjoyment of the art form. When students are given the opportunities and the tools to interact with poetry, their encounters with poetry will be meaningful and satisfying.
