  An authoritative, unprecedented account of how in the early 2000s Canadian music finally became cool
  		 
  Hearts on Fire is about the creative explosion in Canadian music of the early 2000s, which captured the world’s attention in entirely new ways. The Canadian wave didn’t just sweep over one genre or one city, it stretched from coast to coast, affecting large bands and solo performers, rock bands and DJs, and it connected to international scenes by capitalizing on new technology and old-school DIY methods.
  		 
  Arcade Fire, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Feist, Tegan and Sara, Alexisonfire: those were just the tip of the iceberg. This is also the story of hippie chicks, turntablists, poetic punks, absurdist pranksters, queer orchestras, obtuse wordsmiths, electronic psychedelic jazz, power-pop supergroups, sexually bold electro queens, cowboys who used to play speed metal, garage rock evangelists, classically trained solo violinists, and the hip-hop scene that preceded Drake. This is Canada like it had never sounded before. This is the Canada that soundtracked the dawn of a new century.
  		 
  Featuring more than 100 exclusive interviews and two decades of research, Hearts on Fire is the music book every Canadian music fan will want on their shelf.

  A dialogue between Socrates and Meno probes the subject of ethics. Can goodness be taught? If it can, then we should be able to find teachers capable of instructing others about what is good and bad, right and wrong, or just and unjust. Socrates and Meno are unable to identify teachers of ethics, and we are left wondering how such knowledge could be acquired.
   
  To answer that puzzle, Socrates questions one of Meno’s servants in an attempt to show that we know fundamental ideas by recollecting them.

  What if love isn't enough to keep him loyal? What if discipline is the only language he respects? 
  How to Chain a Cheater is not a book for the soft-hearted or the blindly forgiving. It's for the woman who's tired of begging, bleeding, and blaming herself for a man's betrayal. This brutally honest, unapologetically strategic guide exposes what no therapist will tell you: some men don't stop cheating until they're trained, tamed—or replaced. 
  In these pages, you won't find fairy tale advice. You'll find a battle plan. 
  Discover:Why men cheat even when they "love" youHow to install fear, consequence, and accountability without raising your voiceThe psychological warfare that flips the power dynamic in your favorHow to chain a cheater emotionally, financially, sexually—and spirituallyWhen to walk away, when to punish, and when to reward consistency 
  This book is your weapon. It's your shield. It's the reality check every woman needs before wasting another tear on an unfaithful man. With dark humor, razor-sharp insights, and no sugarcoating, author A.A. Castor hands women the blueprint to take control, reclaim respect, and—if you choose to stay—make him fear the price of losing you more than he craves the thrill of betrayal. 
  If you've ever whispered, "He'll change if I love him harder," this book will scream back: 
  "He'll only change when it costs him more to lose you than to keep you."
