"The bell of opportunity tolls for us, and the world, for once, will listen. It is our turn," writes Conrad Black in this scintillating blueprint for a bolder Canadian future.

Black's Manifesto reminds us who we were and, therefore, who we are. In doing so, he lays the groundwork for us to consider who we might yet become.
- Jordan Peterson, University of Toronto, Author of 12 Rules for Life

Chipper, patient, and courteous, Canada has pursued an improbable destiny as a splendid nation of relatively good and ably self-governing people, but most would agree we have not realized our true potential.

Canada's main chance, writes Black, is now before it...and it is not in the usual realms of military or economic dominance. With the rest of the West engaged in a sterile left-right tug of war, Canada has the opportunity to lead the world to its next stage of development in the arts of government. By transforming itself into a controlled and sensible public policy laboratory, it can forge new solutions to the problems of welfare, education, health care, foreign policy, and other governmental sectors, and make an enormous contribution to the welfare of mankind.

Canada has no excuse not to lead in this field, argues Black, who offers nineteen visionary policy proposals of his own. He claims that this is the destiny, and the vocation, Canada could have, not in the next century, but in the next five years of imaginative government."

Mapping the Travel Behavior Genome
<p><i>Mapping the Travel Behavior Genome</i> covers the latest research on the biological, motivational, cognitive, situational, and dispositional factors that drive activity-travel behavior. Organized into three sections, <i>Retrospective and Prospective Survey of Travel Behavior Research, New Research Methods and Findings, and Future Research</i>, the chapters of this book provide evidence of progress made in the most recent years in four dimensions of the travel behavior genome. These dimensions are <i>Substantive Problems, Theoretical and Conceptual Frameworks, Behavioral Measurement, and Behavioral Analysis. </i>Including the movement of goods as well as the movement of people, the book shows how traveler values, norms, attitudes, perceptions, emotions, feelings, and constraints lead to observed behavior&#x3b; how to design efficient infrastructure and services to meet tomorrow's needs for accessibility and mobility&#x3b; how to assess equity and distributional justice&#x3b; and how to assess and implement policies for improving sustainability and quality of life. </p> <p><i>Mapping the Travel Behavior Genome</i> examines the paradigm shift toward more dynamic, user-centric, demand-responsive transport services, including the "sharing economy," mobility as a service, automation, and robotics. This volume provides research directions to answer behavioral questions emerging from these upheavals.</p>
