Prayer of the World
Prayer of the World opens a window into an astonishingly beautiful world, showing life as a vast prayer in which we live and breathe. Through poetry and luminous photographs, it brings forth the voices of earth, sea, sky, and the entire web of life. From star fire to water’s blue stillness, from eagle’s soaring flight to canary’s solemn teaching comes the plea: “Join the prayer; the web is greatly strained.” Kathleen Maia and Ken traveled to many sites in the United States and beyond—she with her pen and notebook, and he with his camera. As their pilgrimage continued, they realized that the poetry and photography together created a stunning whole, a vibrant expression of Earth’s life and Earth’s plea: “Give back to the web; add your voice to the song. Join the Prayer of the World.” As alarm, anxiety, and upheaval escalate across the globe, Prayer of the World raises not only Earth’s lament, but also Earth’s great hope: “All is connected in a living breathing web…the living pulse of energy that flows through all creation—each pulse a prayer.” To learn more about Prayer of the World visit: www.prayeroftheworld.org
Comics and Agency
This volume aims to intensify the interdisciplinary dialogue on comics and related popular multimodal forms (including manga, graphic novels, and cartoons) by focusing on the concept of medial, mediated, and mediating agency. To this end, a theoretically and methodologically diverse set of contributions explores the interrelations between individual, collective, and institutional actors within historical and contemporary comics cultures. Agency is at stake when recipients resist hegemonic readings of multimodal texts. In the same manner, “authorship” can be understood as the attribution of agency of and between various medial instances and roles such as writers, artists, colorists, letterers, or editors, as well as with regard to commercial rights holders such as publishing houses or conglomerates and reviewers or fans. From this perspective, aspects of comics production (authorship and institutionalization) can be related to aspects of comics reception (appropriation and discursivation), and circulation (participation and canonization), including their potential for transmedialization and making contributions to the formation of the public sphere.

The Role of Mini Zinc-Finger Protein in the Replication of the AIDS Virus
Through an investigation of the nucleocapsid protein of the AIDS virus, this book illustrates how a small disordered basic viral protein controls virus structure, replication and genetic variability. It also highlights novel concepts indicating that proteins devoid of a defined 3D structure can have many different roles as mediated by a series of molecular interactions with RNA molecules, and, as such, behave as molecular adaptors.
Le Charlisme
“Nous avons été follement Charlie. Et nous voici aujourd’hui devant une mutation imprévisible que nous sommes tentés d’appeler, pour l’instant, le charlisme.
