Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Language Awareness in the Classroom addresses the central educational question of the impact that explicit language knowledge has on learning and language learning. A substantial Introduction defines the issues and key concepts and relates them to contemporary educational policy and practice in Europe and internationally. The papers are organised into four thematic sections: the extent and nature of language awareness in teacher education; school-based language awareness programmes; tertiary education initiatives and modes of evaluation of language awareness programmes.

Errors in Language Learning and Use is an up-to-date introduction and guide to the study of errors in language, and is also a critical survey of previous work. Error Analysis occupies a central position within Applied Linguistics, and seeks to clarify questions such as `Does correctness matter?', `Is it more important to speak fluently and write imaginatively or to communicate one's message?' Carl James provides a scholarly and well-illustrated theoretical and historical background to the field of Error Analysis. The reader is led from definitions of error and related concepts, to categorization of types of linguistic deviance, discussion of error gravities, the utility of teacher correction and towards writing learner profiles. Throughout, the text is guided by considerable practical experience in language education in a range of classroom contexts worldwide.

Through in-depth qualitative research with African Canadians in three Canadian cities--Calgary, Toronto, and Halifax--this study explores how experiences of racism, when combined with other social and economic factors, affect the health and well-being of this segment of the country`s population. With a special interest in how racial stereotyping impacts black men and boys, the book presents stories of racism and violence and describes how reactions to racism differ across a range of social and economic variables. In addition, the discussion rejects the notion that black communities are homogeneous and provides a detailed examination of three distinct communities: Caribbean, immigrant African, and Canadian black.

This book, Spiritual Warfare-For the anointed Body of Christ, is for the sole purpose of understanding the realm of the spirit. During spiritual warfare, the Body of Christ does not really have any understanding of what really occurs in the realm of the spirit during spiritual warfare. The spiritual warfare that is being explained in this book is for sole purpose of allowing the Body of Christ to peer into the unknown. The unknown is an arena that is not understandable to the Body of Christ because of the lack of revelation given concerning the realm of the spirit. The realm of the spirit is a place that is not understood by spiritual warfare adherents only because they lack Scriptural revelation. Spiritual warfare is based upon Scriptural revelation to be able to destroy demonic strongholds. The revelation that is given during spiritual warfare is for the sole purpose of demolishing the demonic stronghold in the realm of the spirit (2 Corinthians 10: 4-6). The spiritual weapons that are involved in spiritual confrontations with the evil one are numerous in application. This book contains various applications of spiritual weapons that are more than capable of demolishing demonic strongholds. The spiritual warfare in this book is completely dependent on the Word of God to insure victory in every confrontation. The Word of God is to be used in accordance with Spirit-led direction to enable the anointing to work effectively. The Spirit of God will lead the Body of Christ through the various spiritual battles with the evil one to obtain the needed victory. There are many different battles that are approached from various Scriptural revelations to cause the anointing to destroy the demonicconspiracy. This book will teach the Body of Christ on how the anointing works in the realm of the spirit.

The areas explored are: the federal multicultural policy and its articulated discourse, intentions and outcomes in today's Canada; how ethnic, racial and religious minorities and immigrants have fared in a society with official multiculturalism; the limits and possibilities of multicultural education; and the capacity of employment equity to address discriminatory employment practices in today's cultural context. The contributors demonstrate that instead of opening opportunities for full and effective participation in Canadian society, the current discourse of multiculturalism often operates to homogenize, essentialize, racialize and marginalize ethnic and racial minority group Canadians, and in the process negates individual and intra-cultural group differences as well as cultural variations and complexities of groups. In light of this situation, we observe that there is a need for a paradigm shift that would facilitate the development of policies, programs, curricula, practices, strategies and pedagogies that would bring about equitable conditions for minority group Canadians and immigrants.
