It is my contention that Canadian artists, biogra-

phers, historians, and creative writers show every-

one who will pay attention will use their eyes

and ears to listen to the heartbeat o the country

what it means to be Canadian through their

representations o nordicity and war, and through

their inventions o national icons.

This is a complex story involving a large cast,

whose individual and collective conduct are oten

questionable and whose motivations are almost

invariably contradictory and sel-interested. In this

denitive study, Spooner meets the challenge

o presenting such a thorny subject clearly and

persuasively. This is a superb book on a dicult

topic that tells us much about UN peacekeeping

and Canadas part in it.

Constanc Backhous, DistinguishdUnivrsit Prossor and Univrsit RsarchChair, Facult o Law, Univrsit o Ottawa.

This book oers ascinating new perspectives on

the roots o Canadian racism. Moving beyond tra-

ditional narratives o Aboriginal-European contact

and Chinese-European relations, Renisa Mawaniprobes the unsettled landscape o crossracial

encounters between Indians and Chinese in

British Columbia history. She detly captures the

renzied anxieties that whites harboured over

ungovernable mixed-race activities, and brilliantly

dissects the renewed state racisms that were

born o such encounters.

This book is about the politics o lawsuits in

which multiple parties are pitted against powerul

corporate interests in a battle or money, pride,

and prominence. Yet, at the heart o these strug-

gles is the tension between what it means to be

an individual and a member o a group, between

law and policy. It is a compelling read with great

legal stories and a strong analytic structure.

This is a ne piece o scholarship and a wonderul

handling o the topic. It makes a very signicant

contribution to the eld, both by demonstrating

to environmental historians that Northern topics

are o broader interest and by providing Northern

historians with an impressively detailed illustration

o the importance o environmental perspectives.

In this sprightly volume, the wide tires o surveil-

lance theory and propaganda meet the reality

inducing roads o critical conceptual and empirical

inquiry. The eld o surveillance studies lurches

orward as a result. This inormative interdisciplin-

ary work by Canadian scholars (the country in the

oreront o surveillance studies) should be read

by anyone interested in the richness, complexity,

and varied consequences o both traditional and

new surveillance techniques.
