An important critical study of Canadian literature, placing internationally successful anglophone Canadian authors in the context of their national literary history.
While the focus of the book is on twentieth-century and contemporary writing, it also charts the historical development of Canadian literature and discusses important eighteenth- and nineteenth-century authors. The chapters focus on four central themes in Canadian culture: Ethnicity, Race, Colonisation; Wildernesses, Cities, Regions; Desire; and Histories and Stories. Each chapter combines case studies of five key texts with a broad discussion of concepts and approaches.

Special Set Linear Algebra and Special Set Fuzzy Linear Algebra
Special Set Linear Algebras introduced by the authors in this book is an extension of Set Linear Algebras, which are the most generalized form of linear algebras. These structures can be applied to multi-expert models. The dominance of computers in everyday life calls for a paradigm shift in the concepts of linear algebras. The authors belief that special set linear algebra will cater to that need.
A University Grammar of English is a shorter version of A Grammar of Contemporary English on which the authors worked in collaboration with Geoffrey Leech and Jan Svartvik. The structure of the parent book has been preserved so that reference can easily be made to it, though in many respects the authors have incorporated revisions, improvements, and expansions. The present treatment has been adapted to the needs of students who require maximum comprehensive-ness with maximum economy of presentation. The authors carefully indicate constructions which distinguish spoken from written, formal from informal, or British from American usage.
