University Affairs published by the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada carried relevant articles in vol. 13, no. 2 (February 1972)Google Scholar and vol. 13, no. 10 (December 1972) as did the CAUT Bulletin, published by the Canadian Association of University Teachers in vol. 21, no. 4 (March 1973), vol. 21, no. 6 (June 1973), vol. 22, no. 3 (January 1974), and vol. 22, no. 5 (April 1974).

⁴ In those instances where economics and political science form one department, as in Saskatchewan and Toronto, only courses which would otherwise be found in political science departments have been included. Similarly, in the several instances in which sociology forms part of a more inclusive unit, only the sociology courses have been included.

⁵ The twenty-four universities included the following (in several cases only one department provided a usable response): Alberta, Bishop's, British Columbia, Calgary, Carleton, Dalhousie, Guelph, Laurentian, Lethbridge, McMaster, Manitoba, Mount Allison, McGill, Prince Edward Island, Queen's, Saskatchewan (Saskatoon), Sir George Williams, Toronto, Trent, Victoria, Western Ontario, Wilfrid Laurier, Windsor, Winnipeg.

⁶ The most widely adopted text in both disciplines was Porter's, JohnThe Vertical Mosaic (Toronto 1965)CrossRefGoogle Scholar followed in political science by Dawson, R. Macgregor, The Government of Canada, fifth edition, revised by Ward, Norman (Toronto 1970)Google Scholar and Fox, Paul, ed., Politics: Canada, third edition (Toronto 1970).Google Scholar Aside from Porter's book there were no dominant texts in sociology.

⁷ Biographical sources of various kinds provided data. Editors were treated as if they were authors. If a book was co-edited or co-authored by scholars of different citizenship – a very rare occurrence – I focused on what appeared to be the dominant writer. The citizenship of the author at the time the book was first published was taken as his citizenship in respect to that book.

⁸ In all cases I categorized the publisher rather than merely a distributing publishes with Canadian rights. Only Canadian subsidiaries such as McGraw-Hill or Oxford which openly formed part of a multinational corporation were categorized as subsidiaries. Specifically Canadian firms such as Mitchell Press which might be foreign-owned but did not indicate such ownership were classified as Canadian. The American firms were numerous. Frequently cited publishers included Appleton-Century-Crofts, Free Press, Norton, Heath, Knopf, Harper, and the various university presses. A book copublished by a Canadian firm and a non-Canadian firm was entered as a Canadian publication.

⁹ Tables I and II and all subsequent tables involving both disciplines are skewed somewhat towards the political science data because there were more political science departments in the survey and because, on balance, the average political science department listed more required texts than did the average sociology department. Where a course listed several books by the same author – sometimes no others were cited – they were, of course, entered separately even in the unusual case of Sociology 6G03 at McMaster which listed nine required texts of which eight were written by C. Wright Mills and the ninth was G. Domhoff and H. Ballard, eds., C. Wright Mills and the Power Elite. Unfortunately, the McMaster sociology data had to be deleted because of the great gaps.

¹⁰ Although the category of non-Canadian authors published in Canadian subsidiaries accounts for relatively few textbook adoptions and is thus not very significant, the fact that about half of the authors were Americans may be seen as an additional element of American dominance of the Canadian market.

¹¹ This assessment rests not on hard data but on a perusal of books in print as listed in the catalogues of most Canadian publishers.
