'[A] well-conceived and tightly edited manuscript that adds significantly to our understanding of the military in an increasingly important area of the world. The conceptual scheme lends coherence to the substantive chapters, written by recognized experts on the countries in question. The book offers a needed corrective to the notion that NATO standards and notions of professionalism will dominate modern militaries. It will be of interest to those interested in post-communist systems and civil-military relations.' - Professor John Allen Williams, Loyola University Chicago, Executive Director, Inter-University Seminar on Armed Forces and Society

#1 National BestsellerWinner of the CBA Libris Awards, Fiction Book of the YearFinalist for the Giller PrizeFinalist for the Commonwealth Writers Prize for Best Book (Canada and Caribbean Region)Finalist for the CBA Libris Awards, Author of the YearFinalist for the CBC Canada Reads Top Essential Canadian Novels of the Decade &ldquo;Beautifully written and equally beautiful in its compassion, its wisdom, even in its anger and pain. Don&rsquo;t miss it.&rdquo; The Washington Post&ldquo;Murder mystery, spy thriller, historical novel, morality play--The Way the Crow Flies is all of these.... Engrossing...remarkable.&rdquo; The Chicago Tribune&ldquo;Stunning proof of MacDonald&rsquo;s abilities&hellip;. A fantastic novel, not only because it is humorous, and sad and suspenseful and entertaining. It is a fantastic novel because it reminds us, as Canadians, of our citizenship in the world.&rdquo;The Gazette&ldquo;A gripping, insightful cinematic tale&hellip;. I could not put it down&hellip;. The Way the Crow Flies tells a gripping tale, and has the power to illuminate the way we think about the modern world.&rdquo; Charlotte Gray, National Post&ldquo;Ann-Marie MacDonald&rsquo;s big novel generates a strong emotional pull...suspense and the evocation of feeling on the author&rsquo;s part continue to drive the reader&rsquo;s interest forward to the very last page&hellip;. MacDonald touches some deeply moving and insightful themes--the deliberate assertion of nothingness which is behind human evil, the effort of guilty children to shield their innocent parents from knowledge.&rdquo; The Toronto Star&ldquo;A gripping, twisty plot with powerful undercurrents of anger, abuse and even murder&hellip;. MacDonald is a stunningly good writer&hellip;. The Way The Crow Flies&hellip;secures for MacDonald a place, forever, in Canadian literature.&rdquo; The Calgary Herald&ldquo;A mesmerizing recreation of a vanished era and a lost childhood.... MacDonald&rsquo; s depiction of a vulnerable girl almost destroyed by the confluence of global politics and local murder is rendered with beauty and passion.&rdquo; Maclean&rsquo;s&ldquo;This dark thriller, set mostly in the early &lsquo;60s, is part coming-of-age story, part Cold War thriller and part murder mystery, all wrapped around a fascinating history lesson. Like her first novel, it centres on a painful secret that will pull most readers compulsively back to this book until the last page.&rdquo; Flare&ldquo;MacDonald is an expert storyteller, providing an intricate recreation of life on a military base in the 1960s&hellip;a chronicle of innocence betrayed.&rdquo; PW Daily (starred review)&ldquo;A hopeful and satisfying finale&hellip;. This novel has close to perfect pitch.&rdquo; The Edmonton Journal&ldquo;This extraordinary follow-up to Fall on Your Knees, is both a head-spinning murder mystery and an absorbing exploration of morality, innocencelost and the lengths to which parents and children will go to protect each other. Astonishing in its depth and breadth, it artfully weaves one family&rsquo;s struggles into the fabric of the Cold War.&rdquo; People magazine (Critic&rsquo;s Choice)&ldquo;MacDonald&rsquo;s central and wonderful creation, Madeleine McCarthy&hellip;is at once sophisticated and uncomprehending, in ways that ring terribly true. Hers is the consciousness that renders this novel compelling well beyond the level of its highly competent whodunit plot.&rdquo; Claire Messud, The Globe and Mail

'Weaving together the histories of aviation and atomic energy, Zaidi makes innovative contributions to scholarship on technology and internationalism. He deftly analyzes how policymakers and intellectuals, on both sides of the Atlantic, sought to transform the airplane and the atomic bomb into catalysts of global order rather than global catastrophe.' Jenifer Van Vleck, author of Empire of the Air: Aviation and the American Ascendancy
