Section 33 - what is commonly referred to as the notwithstanding clause (NWC) - was written into the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms to permit Parliament and the Provinces to provisionally override certain Charter rights. The Notwithstanding Clause and the Canadian Charter examines the NWC from all angles and perspectives, considering who should have the last word on matters of rights and justice - the legislatures or the unelected judiciary - and what balance liberal democracy requires. In the case of Quebec, the use of the clause has been justified as necessary to preserve the province's culture and promote its identity as a nation. Yet Quebec's pre-emptive and sweeping invocation of the clause also challenges the scope of judicial review and citizens' recourse to it, and it tests the assumption that a dialogue between the judiciary and the legislature is always preferable in instances in which the legislative branch decides to suspend the operation of certain Charter rights

《牙外傷臨床指南》是引進自全球知名學術出版商之一的John Wiley and Sons的一本口腔臨床著作，譯者為國內長期從事口腔頜面外科診治、教學的專家團隊。牙外傷是指牙受到各種機械外力作用發生的牙周組織、牙髓組織和牙體硬組織的急劇損傷，需及時就醫，不及時或不正確的治療會對牙齒、頜骨和口腔造成不同程度的損傷，導致牙齒鬆動、牙齒疼痛，甚至牙冠斷裂、牙齒喪失，進而破壞咀嚼器官的完整性，對口腔健康和功能產生影響，甚至危及全身健康。牙外傷通常由意外所致，它給口腔醫師和其他相關醫療從業者帶來了挑戰。《牙外傷臨床指南》一書涵蓋了牙外傷處置相關所需的大部分信息。書中章節的排列順序以創傷的嚴重程度為依據，結合大量真實案例，配以清晰的圖表及近三百幅高質量臨床照片，系統闡述了牙外傷的風險因素、牙外傷的預防措施以及牙釉質裂紋、牙釉質折斷、冠折露髓、簡單冠根折、複雜冠根折、牙根折、牙槽突骨折、牙亞脫位、牙移位損傷、牙全脫出等不同類型牙外傷的治療及護等，為讀者提供了實用的牙外傷診療指導。
