Urban geography in Canada is constantly undergoing changes and, as such, the study of the discipline must reflect these changes. Approaching the subject from a unique vantage point, Canadian Urban Regions: Trajectories of Growth and Change brings together some of the most respected scholars in the discipline to discuss important developments and examine the path urban geography in Canada is following. The organization of this text will help upper-level students studying urban geography to expand on concepts already gleaned in their introductory years-it moves from a theoretical framework, on to practical case studies, and then to a discussion of where the discipline is headed in the future. By providing insight into both theoretical perspectives and contemporary views, this text fully encompasses the changes and challenges in Canadian urban geography today.

THE LAST GENERATION is a well-documented overview and resource manual that shows how current and historical events have unfolded, consistent with biblical prophecy, logically revealing how and why we are in our last days. We are not looking at a day, an hour, or a year, but a generation―the last generation, which began with the birth of Israel in 1948. According to Matthew 24:34, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place. Addressed are the final pieces of the prophetic puzzle that have been falling into place at an unprecedented pace since that time. The depiction of the Doomsday Clock on the front cover with midnight as “doomsday” represents the consensus of the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists. With a newspaper in one hand and a Bible in the other, it is easy to see God’s Word being fulfilled in this generation as current events coincide with prophecies made over 2,500 years ago.
