SYNCHRONICITY KEY<br />

WILCOCK, DAVID<br />

New York Times bestselling author David Wilcock unlocks the key to a universal life force that is<br />

influencing and guiding humanity toward enlightenment. With The Source Field Investigations, David<br />

Wilcock joined Graham Hancock and Lynne McTaggart as a leading writer exploring the intersection of<br />

ancient mysteries and new science. He used cutting-edge alternative science to delve into the mysteries<br />

behind the 2012 prophecies, and readers embraced his findings: The Source Field Investigations was a<br />

New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestseller. In his new book, The Synchronicity Key,<br />

Wilcock embarks on an astonishing investigation into what lies beyond those prophecies—finding proof<br />

that everything in our lives is not only connected, it all influences everything else. Using history, astrology,<br />

and synchronicity theory as well as concepts such as fractals, spiritual geometry, quantum physics, and<br />

other new research, Wilcock shows that there is a hidden architecture within time, guiding individuals and<br />

nations through a system of enlightenment Joseph Campbell called the Hero’s Journey. Historical events<br />

occur in shockingly precise, repeating cycles of time as a result. Once we understand and identify the<br />

hidden laws governing the fates of individuals and nations through seemingly random “synchronicity,” we<br />

are left with a remarkable blueprint of how best to lead our lives spiritually in the post-2012 world.<br />

TAKING LIBERTIES<br />

GOUTER, DAVID<br />

Universal human rights are considered to be a fundamental, inalienable aspect of Canadian legal culture,<br />

not to mention central to our international positioning. However the reality is that Canada was surprisingly<br />

slow to adopt the rights revolution that followed the Second World War, given concerns that existing<br />

norms and liberties could conflict with these new universal rights. Moreover, even when Canada did sign<br />

up, these rights were not all automatically put into practice. Nor, interestingly, did all groups embrace<br />

these rights. Human rights, as we know, did become entrenched. There have been challenges to and<br />

changes in the legal framework of citizenship in Canada. But this has followed a long process of<br />

transformation, and many groups have faced tremendous struggle to get their rights claims recognized.<br />

This collection sheds new lights on the bumpy road toward universal human rights in our diverse and<br />

complex country. Topics include sexual rights, children's rights, "race" and multiculturalism, and class. A<br />

landmark essay by J.R. Miller explores the rights of Aboriginal peoples from the 1876 Indian Act to the<br />

repeal of Section 67 in the Canadian Human Rights Act in 2011. Also considered is the central role of<br />

rights activists-often struggling in the face of widespread hostility-to secure protection for their rights. A<br />

highly insightful, original foreword by Michael Ignatieff is based on a very well-received public lecture in<br />

response to the chapters written for this volume. New research in the growing new field of human rights<br />

history explores the novelty of, the struggle for, and the limitations of, the new rights regime, and its<br />

uneven application across Canadian society.<br />
