My body: Is it really mine?Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
May 29, 2016
Is my body really mine alone? The law thinks so … sometimes. But when it would cost the government money to help me take care of it, then the law tells me that my body belongs to everyone. Bizarre.
Why is Al Sisi's approval rating still high?Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
May 29, 2016
The independent research centre Baseera (Egyptian Center for Public Opinion Research) reported recently that after 22 months in office 79% of Egyptians still approve of President Abdel Fattah Al Sisi's performance, while 13% disapprove and 8% remain undecided.
Anna Boghiguian: From Egypt with LoveProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
May 29, 2016
Six years ago on, one of my frequent visits to my native country, I was browsing in a large downtown Cairo bookstore. I had just picked up an English-language art book about Egypt and was leafing through the pages. After a few moments I realized that a woman nearby was looking at me and the book in my hand. Not a word was exchanged, but I kept looking at the book, then at her, and back at the book again.
Arabic Music in Canada: A Magical EncounterProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
May 29, 2016

Where is Protective Legislation for TV ads that Target Seniors?Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
August 6, 2016
The man in a white lab coat holds up a test tube, similar to those we used in high school chemistry class. He lightheartedly taps the mysterious blue liquid in the tube while telling us; "If you are not completely satisfied, we'll give you your money back." For emphasis, he adds, "I will give you your money back."
The Bloody Colonial History of Britain and AmericaProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
August 6, 2016
"Commenced on Tuesday July 11, 1882 at seven o'clock in the morning from where the Tanjor was anchored we could see the whole thing quite clearly through our glasses. To a civilian who had never seen warfare the spectacle was magnificent."
Aging: Inevitable, but can we manage it better?Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
August 16, 2016
As a young boy growing up in Egypt, I was taught that when wishing someone a happy birthday I should add, "I pray you celebrate your 100th." I suppose Egyptians figured out that 100 years is more than enough time for anyone to live. And indeed, that still holds true today for most of the world.
