Gwynne Dyer, OC (born April 17, 1943) is a London-based independent Canadian journalist, syndicated columnist and military historian.
Dyer was born in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador (then the Dominion of Newfoundland) and joined the Royal Canadian Naval Reserve at the age of sixteen. While still in the naval reserve, he obtained a BA in history from Memorial University of Newfoundland in 1963; an MA in military history from Rice University in Houston, Texas, in 1966; and a PhD in military and Middle Eastern history at King's College London in 1973. Dyer served in the Canadian, American and British naval reserves. He was employed as a senior lecturer in war studies at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, 1973–77. In 1973 he began writing articles for leading London newspapers on the Arab-Israeli conflict, and soon decided to abandon academic life for a full-time career in journalism. In 2010, he was appointed an Officer of the Order of Canada.
Dyer writes a column on international affairs which is published in over 175 papers in at least 45 countries. Some papers that use Dyer's column regularly include:

Genres: Comedy,Columnist and best-selling author Gwynne Dyer's November 10, 2016 talk at the University of Regina. Dr. Dyer's talk, entitled 'Don't Panic', is an examination of the so-called 'global' terror threat posed by violent extremist groups like ISIS. An attempt to put the actual risk into perspective, Dr. Dyer contends there simply aren’t enough resources there to make ISIS a global threat – even though media coverage might lead us to believe otherwise. Given the timing of the talk - two days following the 2016 US presidential election, Dr. Dyer also discussed the roots of populism in the US and the UK, and what a Trump presidency could mean for Canada and the world.
It's a story unique to Texas. New York Times best selling author Sam Gwynne talked about his book Empire of the Summer Moon with fellow author Stephen Harrigan. Gwynne detailed the fascinating story of the rise and fall of the Comanche Indian nation and the story of pioneer woman Cynthia Anne Parker and her son, Quanah, who was the greatest and final Chief of the Comanches.

Do you know where to put an apostrophe and how to tell which apostrophe is possessive - have you even heard of the subjunctive? It's all about grammar and one author claims poor spelling and punctuation are threatening our future. Neville Gwynne, author of Gwynne's Grammar which is in the top ten of the hardback bestsellers list in the UK came in to the studio to speak to Keelin.

Gwynne's Grammar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNmB3k8MUgI&feature;=youtu.be 'Grammar is the science of using words rightly, leading to thinking rightly, leading to deciding rightly, without which -- as both common sense and experience show -- happiness is impossible. Therefore: happiness depends at least partly on good grammar.' So writes Mr Gwynne in Gwynne's Grammar, a small, but perfectly formed new book. Mr Gwynne believes passionately that we must regain our knowledge of the lost science of grammar before it is too late. Here, grammar is debated at The Bad Grammar Awards, hosted by The Idler Academy. http://idler.co.uk/product/books/gwynnes-grammar-new-edition-signed-edition-with-free-pencil/ Beautifully designed, easy to understand and a joy to read, Gwynne's Grammar may be...

"Yeah
Hey hey hey
No I'll never look back in anger
No I'll never find me an answer
You promised me, you'd keep in touch
I read your letter and it hurt me so much
I said I'd never, never be angry with you
I don't wanna feel like a stranger (no)
'Cos I'd rather stay out of danger
I read your letter so many times
I got your meaning between the lines
I said I'd never, never be angry with you
I must be strong so she won't know how much I miss her
I only hope as time goes on I'll forget her
My body's aching, can't sleep at night
I'm too exhausted to start a fight
And if I see her with another guy
I'll eat my heart out 'cos I love, love, love, love her
Come on baby, let's get together
I'll love you baby, I'll love you forever
I'm trying hard to stay away
What made you change, what did I say ?
Ooh I need your loving tonight
Ooh I need your loving
Ooh I need your loving
Ooh I need your loving babe tonight (Hit me)
Ooh I need your loving tonight
No I'll never look back in anger
No I'll never find me an answer
Gave me no warning, how could I guess
I'll have to learn to forgive and forget
Ooh I need your loving
Ooh I need your loving
