This is a follow-up to last year's runaway bestseller Now You Know ... The Book of Answers, which went through five printings and sold over 20,000 copies! Why do we shout ''''Fore'''' on a golf course? Why is confetti thrown at a wedding? Exactly how long is a ''''moment'''' or a ''''jiffy''''? Why is breaking a mirror bad luck, and a rabbit's foot good luck? In this second book, Lennox continues to trace the concise and fascinating history and reasons for hundreds of expressions in our everyday language, as well as customs and habits, in the same entertaining format that was so successful last year. These gems are from the original syndicated radio scripts broadcast daily to millions across Canada through the Sound Source Network of Standard Broadcasting.

Encyclopedia of the Life Course and Human Development: 3 Volume Set
<p>The <em>Encyclopedia of the Life Course and Human Development</em> examines three key life stages from a sociological perspective, exploring how enduring experiences, as well as transitions and events such as childcare, education, stress, marriage, career, addiction, friendship, parenthood, disease, spirituality, and retirement influence the individualâ s life course. The nearly 400 entries in this three-volume set are organized by life stage: Childhood and Adolescence&#x3b; Adulthood&#x3b; and Later Life. Included in each is an overview essay that features a detailed discussion of that stage of human development, followed by signed entries that apply sociological as well as economic, biological, psychological, and educational perspectives to a range of topics. Also covered are sociological theories and their significance to life course study&#x3b; the impact of social and government policies&#x3b; and racial, gender, and geographic patterns of many life course phenomena. Entries are heavily illustrated with photos, graphs, charts, and tables. Also included is coverage of research methods and key data sources, which enhance and reinforce the topical entries, as well as a glossary, thematic outline, annotated bibliography, and cumulative index.
