“Kicking at the Darkness is a brilliant analysis of forty years of Bruce Cockburn’s lyrics and their biblical and religious connections. Brian Walsh’s explication is thoroughly researched and logical, and also compelling and entertaining. I read it from start to finish in one evening.”—Joel Goldberg, producer/director of Bruce Cockburn, Pacing the Cage
“At last, a robust engagement with Bruce Cockburn’s art that brings Canada’s prized poet-musician into sustained and creative dialogue with biblical faith. Brian J. Walsh writes with obvious affection for his subject but also considerable lucidity as he ranges far and wide across the Cockburn canon. Good things happen when erudite theological reflection takes popular culture seriously. This book is a case in point.”—Michael Gilmour, associate professor of New Testament and English literature, Providence University College, Manitoba
Brian J. Walsh (PhD, McGill University) is the bestselling author or coauthor of several books, including The Transforming Vision, Truth Is Stranger Than It Used to Be, and Colossians Remixed. He is a chaplain at the University of Toronto and an adjunct professor of theology of culture at Wycliffe College in Toronto, Ontario.

New Treatment Shows Staggering Decrease in Post-Concussion Syndrome Symptoms
With it taking the NHL’s Sidney Crosby 10 months to return to the ice after back-to-back concussion-inducing hits to the head in the 2010-11 season, the need for a speedy, effective treatment for concussions is becoming an increasing concern.
A treatment at MMTR Health Inc. is seeing increasing success in dealing with post-concussion symptoms. The MyoWorx® treatment, with an average of 6.6 treatments in just over four weeks, has resulted in a 96.6 per cent recovery with no recurrence of symptoms unless another concussion has been incurred.
MyoWorx® is a different form of electrotherapy developed by MMTR Health Inc. President and CEO Terry Moore. The patent-pending MyoWorx® machine relaxes muscles without fatiguing them, allowing Moore and his staff to rebuild strength and endurance in the muscles.
