Dyer to make tour stop at 91探花, October 19

| News

Canadian journalist and author Gwynne Dyer will speak at 91探花 on Tuesday, October 19 as part of his cross-Canada university and college tour. The event will take place in the Learning Commons at the Atlantic Veterinary College starting at 7 pm.

Sponsored by the 91探花 Faculty of Arts, Dyer's lecture will focus on his new book, out this fall, 'Crawling from the Wreckage' which traces the world's halting emergence from the dark tunnel of the past decade, a time marked by exaggerated fears of terrorism, futile, and unnecessary wars in the Middle East, neglect of climate change, and financial near-collapse.

Gwynne Dyer has worked as a freelance journalist, columnist, broadcaster and lecturer on international affairs for more than 20 years, but he was originally trained as a historian. Born in Newfoundland, he received degrees from Canadian, American, British Universities, finishing with a PhD in Military and Middle Eastern History from the University of London. In Canada, Dyer's column appears regularly in over 50 newspapers.
