Can Canada lead the world in making democracy work for everyone, including for your benefit? Can democracies be redesigned to meaningfully solve even the most challenging problems such as climate change? The answer, CREDIBLY PROVEN by Andy Bilik, is a resounding YES! By uniquely defining who Canadians are, and establishing a new political philosophy called Democratic Restructuralism, the author clearly shows, in concrete terms, what is wrong with democracy and what is required to make it work for the common good. He reveals "how" to "Make democracy great again," beginning in Canada. In doing so, Bilik has achieved what most people, including world leaders and prominent academics, would argue is impossible! Mending the Flag, Healing the World, is an incredibly thought provoking work. Simultaneously, it is a well researched book that debunks contemporary theories regarding why democracy does not appear to work for most of us. Since Bilik has discovered a positive and real way humanity can progress forward, during this critical and divisive juncture of world history, his book may be one of the most important non-fiction works of the 21st century. You should read it!

Student disruption at school can take up an enormous amount of time, energy, and even financial resources. Confrontations can result not only in personal stress for both students and teachers, but in conflicts that involve families and the larger community. However, it's not always easy to know what to do or how to respond. In this original and highly engaging book, Emma Van der Klift suggests that "cross-pollination" - applying the lenses of one field to the issues faced by another - can generate unexpected insights and open new ways to think and act. Based on a year's worth of fascinating interviews with hostage negotiators from all over North America, this book shows how crisis negotiators de-escalate distraught individuals through communication. Instead of relying on either punishment, reward or directives - something commonly done in education - hostage negotiators rely on listening and support and are successful in resolving more than 90 percent of the issues they are called upon to negotiate without loss of life, injury, or the use of coercion. This book offers a wealth of suggestions and advice from negotiators, and is not only about how we can help someone to de-escalate when they are in crisis, but also, and perhaps most importantly, about how we can learn to effectively de-escalate ourselves during difficult interchanges.

Following the hypothesis proffered in God Star, the prequel to this work, Flare Star sets out to show that Earth's last Ice Age came suddenly to an end due to the cosmic catastrophe that was caused by the proto-Saturnian system's entry into the present Sun's domain of influence. Very much as in God Star, this is partly demonstrated through the message contained in mankind's mytho-historical record. The main evidence for the above supposition, however, derives from the scars of the event that are still etched in Earth's land-masses and oceanic depths. Recent discoveries in astronomy and astrophysics also lend their weight in accounting for the detailed sequence of the devastation. Various enigmas that have bothered a range of disciplines are thereby elucidated. One of the greatest tectonic upheavals that humanity has ever experienced-encompassing geomagnetic field excursions, diastrophism, global volcanism, the heaping of the oceans onto the land, the extinction of life that followed, and much more-is provided with a catastrophic cause that has eluded researchers until now. The very concept of deity, the origin of which was traced in God Star, is here explored further since man ended up blaming his God for the source of the event that forever changed his world.

Astrophysicists have noted various problems with the formation of planets out of circumstellar disks, but mainstream scientists continue to promulgate such creations as if the problems do not exist. The derivation of terrestrial life required a much greater amount of ultraviolet radiation than the Sun presently supplies. And yet the Sun is claimed to have been much dimmer at the very time life rose on Earth. The emergence of life also required vast electrical discharges, but the electric energy that Earth can produce through atmospheric lightning lacks the required potency to accomplish what is needed. Life evolved into ever larger forms until evolution outdid itself in the age of dinosaurs. But the present force of gravity is much too strong to have enabled the existence of such colossal beasts. Moreover, while the extinction of these giants has by and large been blamed on a cosmic impact of some sort, evidence from geology does not tally with this scheme. The manner in which miles-deep glaciers accumulated during Earth's past ice ages has never been resolved. Nor has an adequate explanation ever been offered to account for the disparity in glacial melting that occurred between the Arctic and Antarctic regions. Various theories have been proposed in an effort to get to the bottom of the above conundrums, but their sheer number, to say nothing of the contradictions they end up piling on each other, tends to hurl them all into a veritable gladiatorial arena from which none of them has so far escaped unscathed. Following on the heels of its two prequels, and in keeping with Occam's razor, what the present work proposes is a unifying theme that not only resolves each and every one of the above mysteries, but quite a few related ones. At the bottom of it all is the growing realization among astronomers that our Solar System could not have originated as the self-sustained family of planets it presently is, but that some of the Sun's children were actually adopted. And while it was never by any means an orphaned world, one of those adopted children was our own mother Earth.

If controversial subjects are not your cup of tea, read no further and put this book down right now because what this work has to offer is revolutionary in the extreme. God Star sets out to show that the sky that ancient man remembers was entirely different from the one that now stretches above us. This is demonstrated through ancient texts from all over the world which deal with the astronomical lore of our forebears. As if with a single voice, these texts proclaim that the present planet we know as Saturn once shone as a sun in Earth's primordial sky. This claim receives credence through the fact that astronomers now view the planet Saturn as the remnant of what had once been a brown dwarf star. It also goes a long way in explaining why Saturn was considered the "ruler of the planets in mythology,"* and why the god of that planet is found at the head of every ancient pantheon on earth. Astronomically, it is then deduced that Earth used to be the satellite of this proto-Saturnian sun, which mini-system then invaded the present Solar System, and that this transpired during the age of man. As bizarre as this scenario appears, it is lent credibility by the hard sciences through the unmistakable signs encountered here on Earth and also by what is constantly being discovered out in space. In fact, the likelihood that such an interloping planetary system might have been captured by the Sun is even now acknowledged by a new class of trailblazing astronomers. Thus, apart from the mytho-historical record, the theory presented within the pages of this book includes evidence from geology, palaeontology, astrophysics, and plasma cosmology. It also serves to elucidate various dilemmas that presently encumber these and other disciplines. What might be seen by some as of greater importance, the reconstruction of the primeval events that took place beneath the proto-Saturnian sun, goes a long way in disclosing the origins of religion, including the very concept of deity. While, for the sake of scholarship, the book includes the odd technical tract, it is nevertheless written in a manner that will be readily understood by the intelligent layperson. In fact, it almost reads like a detective novel.
