Blessed and burdened with a strange gift for empathy, Charissa Dryden-Burnet stands trial for eco-terrorism in her home town of Edmonton, escapes from a Canadian-owned island prison off the Florida coast, and journeys home to Canada across a continent altered by climate change and political catastrophes. Set in the near future, her story explores love, loss, hope and ambition with plenty of humour and a sharp satirical edge. Reviews: "This lucidly-written novel is both witty and penetrating. A cautionary tale well worth reading." "Charissa's Shoes is a visionary novel that speaks to the reader on many levels.... I strongly recommend that anyone with a taste for clever satirical political and social commentary rush out and buy this brilliant piece of work." Amazon reviews: "Charissa's Shoes is a satiric, dystopian novel that is both absurd and prophetic. It is a startling reflection on the potential for cyber terrorism in the modern era. It was written before the Trump era, and mostly takes place in Canada, but some of the ludicrous behaviour of people seeking power could have been taken from today's news."
Though Americans rarely appreciate it, federalism has profoundly shaped their nation’s past, present, and future. Federalism—the division of government authority between the national government and the states—affects the prosperity, security, and daily life of every American. Some of the most spectacular political conflicts in American history have been fought on the battlefield of federalism, including states’ rights to leave the union, government power to regulate business, and responses to the problems of race, poverty, pollution, abortion, and gay rights.In the second edition of this nuanced and comprehensive text, David Brian Robertson shows that past choices shape present circumstances, and that a deep understanding of American government, public policy, political processes, and society requires an understanding of the key steps in federalism’s evolution in American history.New to the Second EditionEmphasizes that federalism is a battleground that shapes every life inAmerica.Extensively revised and updated, including new coverage of recent controversies like Ferguson, immigration, climate change, Obamacare, gay rights, the minimum wage, political polarization, voter identification, fracking, and marijuana legalization.Brings together the newest developments in history, political science, law,and related disciplines to show how federalism influences government and politics today.Includes chapter-opening vignettes that deal with contemporary cases and policy challenges.

There are books about penoplasty (penile enlargement) but none from men who have actually undergone the procedure. I have appeared on television and been interviewed in magazines about my operation.

"You will be mine, little darling: for death is my life."When fate draws together the lives of two young women, their mutual attraction quickly flourishes into a bond which threatens the boundaries of social etiquette in 1860s Styria.As their relationship continues to develop, they remain oblivious to the growing horror which surrounds them. Throughout the province other young women are dying in mysterious circumstances. Meanwhile, people begin falling victim to the apparently random attacks of a rampaging pack of wolves. When, finally the truth is revealed, the scene is set for a battle between two ancient evils.Years before the publication of Bram Stoker's Dracula, Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu produced a haunting Gothic mystery titled Carmilla. David Brian has used much of the original narrative to create a very different version of Carmilla.Introducing an array of new characters, and touching on subjects which would have been considered taboo in the 1800s, Brian has succeeded in bringing a whole new level of horror, and tragedy, to the legend of Carmilla.

After enduring a very publicized and documented penis enlargement, David Brian revealed his side of the experience in Penoplasty: A True Story. In this follow-up, he continues the detailed, real-life telling of what it means to live with an abnormally small penis and undergo surgical enhancements. The procedure is quite common in both the United States and the United Kingdom, yet the subject of small penis size remains taboo, relegated to ridicule and base humor. In addition to covering his firsthand experiences, this new volume discusses which surgeons worldwide perform penoplasty procedures, why it is that one in two hundred men suffer from the condition, and what women truly think about penis size. It also looks deeper into the history of penis enlargement, discovers new techniques, and discusses the reality that although there may indeed be "plenty of other things to worry about," size still matters. An honest and uncensored exploration, this book will be helpful to many men, along with their partners, as it promotes sincere discussion and debate. As the title suggests, the book maintains a healthy sense of humor, covering the long and short of this complicated issue that affects many but is addressed by few.
