Pediatric Neurogastroenterology

Neurogastroenterology is devoted to "study the interface of all aspects of the digestive system with the different branches of the nervous system". Over the past 15 years advances in this field has greatly improved our understanding in primary functional and motility disorders in children. Neurogastroenterology has also begun to revolutionize our vision of "organic" diseases like inflammatory bowel disease, obesity, diabetes as well as microbial-host interactions. Major advances have also been achieved during these years in the knowledge of mechanisms of development of the enteric nervous system at the molecular level allowing a better understanding of diseases related to developmental anoma...

Voyage into the Heart of AI

Voyage : Artificial Intelligence (AI) is now at the heart of a cognitive revolution, an irresistible force that is redefining what it means to be intelligent. Long confined to futuristic dreams and dystopian fiction, AI has crossed a once-unimaginable threshold, challenging our understanding of intelligence, creativity, and emotion. Domains once reserved for the human mind, such as art and humor, are now the province of machines that not only emulate but surpass our cognitive abilities. This emergence challenges our ontological supremacy and pushes us toward the last stronghold of human uniqueness: consciousness. Author : Thibault Verbiest is an international lawyer. He has always dedicated ...

The Digestive System: From Basic Sciences to Clinical Practice

This textbook on the digestive system was developed in collaboration with medical students to meet both students' and teachers' needs and objectives. It is currently the official gastroenterology textbook for undergraduate students in all French medical schools in Canada, and is also used in Europe and Africa. An updated and improved 3rd edition was published in French in 2020; this translation and update make the book available in English for the first time. The text features contributions from GI experts from Quebec, France, French Africa, and from key Canadian GI experts. The first part of the book covers the eight main organs of the digestive system, while the second half discusses the major clinical diseases and symptoms that affect the digestive system.

Vagus Nerve Stimulation

This volume covers the latest research and development in the areas of Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) as it relates to bioelectronic medicine from neonate to adult. The chapters in this book cover topics such as invasive and non-invasive VNS including methodological considerations (study design, stimulation parameters, and use of heart rate variability metrics); mechanisms of action (automatic regulation and immune plasticity); and disorders where VNS approaches may be therapeutic (migraine and cluster headaches, mood disorders, trauma-related disorders, and language learning). In the Neuromethods series style, chapters include the kind of detail and key advice from the specialists needed to get successful results in your laboratory. Comprehensive and thorough, Vagus Nerve Stimulation is a valuable resource for both novice and expert preclinical and clinical scientists, clinicians, physicians, and scholars who are interested in learning more about this exciting and developing field.

Diagnostic Fluidity

Diagnostic Fluidity

Diagnostic procedures are emblematic of medical work. Scholars in the field of social studies of medicine identify diverse dimensions of diagnosis that point to controversies, processual qualities and contested evidence. In this anthology, diagnostic fluidity is seen to permeate diagnostic work in a wide range of contexts, from medical interactions in the clinic, domestic settings and other relations of affective work, to organizational structures, and in historical developments. The contributors demonstrate, each in their own way, how different agents ‘do diagnosis’, highlighting the multi-faceted elements of uncertainty and mutability integral to diagnostic work. At the same time, the contributors also show how in ‘doing diagnosis’ enactments of subjectivities, representations of cultural imaginaries, bodily processes, and socio-cultural changes contribute to configuring diagnostic fluidity in significant ways.

Mathematics and Social Utopias in France

A mathematician, a social reformer within Saint-Simon's utopian-socialist movement, and later a prosperous banker, Olinde Rodrigues is a fascinating figure of the city of Paris in the first half of the nineteenth century. Since archival resources on Rodrigues are not abundant and since they are scattered throughout a variety of archives studying him presents difficult historiographic challenges. These are met for the first time in this book, written by a team of mathematicians, historians of mathematics, and historians of culture and society for people interested in any of these fields.

The Test

A man places five objects in his father’s coffin and tells no one. Can a medium tell him what they are? Can we communicate with the dead? Some people hope it’s possible, and some are sure of it. Thousands of people consult mediums, but many wonder if their abilities are real. To find out for himself, author Stéphane Allix interviews six mediums. Without telling them that they are being tested, Allix sees if they can name the five objects he secretly placed in his father’s coffin before it was buried. The results are astounding and confirm what scientific research on the subject has revealed: that life after death is indeed a rational hypothesis. Beyond his own test, Allix explores the...
