The Alphabet and the Brain
This book is a consequence of the suggestion that a major key to ward understanding cognition in any advanced culture is to be found in the relationships between processing orthographies, lan guage, and thought. In this book, the contributors attempt to take only the first step, namely to ascertain that there are reliable con stancies among the interactions between a given type of writing and specific brain processes. And, among the possible brain processes that could be investigated, only one apparently simple issue is being explored: namely, whether the lateralization of reading and writing to the right in fully phonemic alphabets is the result of formalized but essentially random occurren...
Quelqu'un doit parler
Un soir d’octobre 2022, la professeure et romancière Catherine Mavrikakis accueille à l’Université de Montréal deux écrivains qui se connaissent à peine: Mathieu Bélisle et Alain Vadeboncoeur. Ils sont invités à parler de la mort, de ce que la pandémie nous a révélé à son sujet, chacun à partir de son expérience, celle de la médecine et des sciences pour Vadeboncoeur, celle de la littérature et des humanités pour Bélisle. La discussion s’engage, teintée d’humour et de tragique, et passe tout naturellement d’une question à l’autre, traitant des mille et un sujets qui font la vie et donnent un sens à la mort: la famille et la filiation, le passé et le prése...
Evidence-Based Emergency Medicine
Emergency physicians assess and manage a wide variety of problems from patients presenting with a diversity of severities, ranging from mild to severe and life-threatening. They are expected to maintain their competency and expertise in areas where there is rapid knowledge change. Evidence-based Emergency Medicine is the first book of its kind in emergency medicine to tackle the problems practicing physicians encounter in the emergency setting using an evidence-based approach. It summarizes the published evidence available for the diagnosis and treatment of common emergency health care problems in adults. Each chapter contextualizes a topic area using a clinical vignette and generates a seri...
Cash Cow
A popular and respected blogger in Québec, Canada, Élise Desaulniers is a food ethics and animal rights advocate who is also interested in public policy, philosophy, and feminism. In Cash Cow, she takes a hard look at the dairy industry, and how it has persuaded the general public of the naturalness and value of cows’ milk in the human diet. Desaulniers asks just who really benefits from the promotion of dairy, and just how effectively animal welfare and small farming operations can be protected in an age of consolidation and confinement.
Share the Wealth!
Canada is a rich country getting richer. But over the past 20 years, a huge portion of the country’s wealth increase has gone to a small handful of the super-rich. Canada’s one per cent have seen their share of Canada’s wealth grow by almost six times since 1999 to $2,203,000,000,000 USD today. Meanwhile, half of all Canadian families experience income insecurity and can’t get the support they need from ever-shrinking public services. Canada’s super-rich gained $76 billion during the 12 months after COVID-19 hit. Canadians are ready for measures that would distribute wealth more fairly, and give governments the funds to pay for pharamacare, improve long-term care, take serious clim...
Upstream Medicine
When patients visit a clinic or hospital, they bring stories of the everyday life conditions that made them sick in the first place – stories about where they work, live, and play; stories about income, food security, and housing. Doctors today are listening. Personal stories and patient encounters illuminate the social determinants of health, that is, the upstream source of what too often become complex, painful, and expensive downstream problems. Upstream Medicine features interviews by medical students and residents with leading physicians whose practices bring evidence-based, upstream ideas to life. They show how we can change the practice of medicine to build a healthier society.

Ordures!
En lisant ce journal d’un vidangeur, vous ferez la découverte d’un monde dont vous ne soupçonniez pas l’existence. Un rassemblement d’excentriques et de personnages plus ou moins intégrés à la vie normale qui travaillent sur la ligne de crête entre ce que notre société considère propre et ce qu’elle juge sale. Qui sont ces athlètes qui courent nos rues chaque semaine derrière des camions, qu’il neige, qu’il pleuve ou qu’il fasse trop chaud? Quelle est leur vision du compostage, du recyclage, de la récupération? Qu’ont-ils à raconter sur une époque qui génère en abondance des ordures? Voilà autant de questions auxquelles répond ce récit captivant.

The End of Pain
For years Jacqueline Lagacé suffered from debilitating chronic arthritis pain in her hands, spine, and knees. Conventional medicine failed to provide any relief, and Lagacé, a medical researcher, began searching for alternatives. That search brought her to the work of Dr. Jean Seignalet, an expert in nutrition therapy, who used targeted nutrition to treat patients suffering from chronic inflammatory diseases. His approach was called the hypotoxic diet, and he achieved an 80 percent success rate with it. By following his dietary regime, Lagacé experienced alleviation of the pain in her hands within ten days and regained the use of her hands in 16 months. Her severe back and knee pain were ...
