- Ingenious : how Canadian innovators made the world smaller, smarter, kinder, safer, healthier, wealthier and happier / by Johnston, David,1941-author.; Jenkins, Tom,1959-author.;
"Successful innovation is always inspired by at least one of three forces--insight, necessity, and simple luck. Ingenious moves through history to explore what circumstances, incidents, coincidences, and collaborations motivated each great Canadian idea, and what twist of fate then brought that idea into public acceptance. Above all, the book explores what goes on in the mind of an innovator, and maps the incredible spectrum of personalities that have struggled to improve the lot of their neighbours, their fellow citizens, and their species. From the marvels of aboriginal invention such as the canoe, snowshoe, igloo, dogsled, lifejacket, and bunk bed to the latest pioneering advances in medicine, education, philanthropy, science, engineering, community development, business, the arts, and the media, Canadians have improvised and collaborated their way to international admiration. Ingenious tells you why they did it and how they made the world a better place."--- Subjects: Inventions; Inventors; Technological innovations;

- Reconciling history : a story of Canada / by Wilson-Raybould, Jody,1971-author.; Danesh, R. P.(Roshan P.),author.;
Includes bibliographical references."From the #1 national bestselling author of 'Indian' in the Cabinet and True Reconciliation, a polyphonic history of our land -- powerful, devastating, remarkable -- as told through the voices of both Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples. The totem pole forms the foundation for this unique and important oral history of Canada. Its goal is both toweringly ambitious and beautifully direct: To tell the story of this country in a way that prompts readers to look from different angles, to see its dimensions, its curves, and its cuts. To see that history has an arc, just as the totem pole rises, but to realize that it is in the details along the way that important meanings are to be found. To recognize, just as Indigenous carvers do, that the story of the past is always there to be retold and recast, and must be conveyed to generations to come. That in the act of re-telling, meaning is found, and strength is built. When it comes to telling the history of Canada, and in particular the history of the relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples, we need to accept that the way in which our history has traditionally been told has not been a common or shared enterprise. In many ways, it has been a highly exclusive and even aggressively siloed one. Among the countless peoples and groups that make up this vast country, some have dominated and controlled how the nation's stories are told -- often emphasizing the voices and experiences of a certain few over those of many others. History-telling today is breaking away from this exclusivity. Our Story in Our Words shares voices that have traditionally been marginalized, and in this groundbreaking book they are telling and re-telling history from their perspectives. Born out of the oral history in True Reconciliation, and complemented throughout with stunning photography and art from the different periods of history, Our Story in Our Words takes this approach to telling our collective story to an entirely different level"--- Subjects: Indigenous peoples; Oral tradition;
