Si le Vol à Voile m'était conté!

Un journaliste demande au nouveau Président: Vous avez un écrit qui pourrait nous servir pour faire un article sur "Le Vol à Voile" au sein du club ACBA-AM? Oups! Quelle question. Rien! Demandons aux historiens amateurs du Club. "Il nous faudrait 5 ou 8 pages sur l'histoire, "machin Truc" ne veut pas le faire, trop de noms à citer, et il veut pas!" Bon l'affaire est entendu je demande à Emile et J-P, si ils veulent faire. Nous voila donc réunis pour raconter cette histoire du début à nos jours. Quel voyage! Pour des planeurs, normal, de l'Allemagne, aux pays Européens, aux USA, la Russie, l'Australie, bref le monde! Normal pour des voyageurs et amateurs de "Vol à Voile" aujourd'hui dénommé par la Fédération vol de Planeurs. Voici ce que nous vous proposons de découvrir, et de lire: Bon Vol !

The Origins of Self

  • Publisher: UCL Press

The Origins of Self explores the role that selfhood plays in defining human society, and each human individual in that society. It considers the genetic and cultural origins of self, the role that self plays in socialisation and language, and the types of self we generate in our individual journeys to and through adulthood. Edwardes argues that other awareness is a relatively early evolutionary development, present throughout the primate clade and perhaps beyond, but self-awareness is a product of the sharing of social models, something only humans appear to do. The self of which we are aware is not something innate within us, it is a model of our self produced as a response to the models of us offered to us by other people. Edwardes proposes that human construction of selfhood involves seven different types of self. All but one of them are internally generated models, and the only non-model, the actual self, is completely hidden from conscious awareness. We rely on others to tell us about our self, and even to let us know we are a self.

European Surgical Orthopaedics and Traumatology

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2014-05-20
  • -
  • Publisher: Springer

This important reference textbook covers the surgical management of all major orthopaedic and traumatological conditions. The book will act as the major source of education and guidance in surgical practice for surgeons and trainees, especially those preparing for higher surgical examinations and the Board of Orthopaedics and Traumatology examinations within and beyond Europe. The emphasis throughout is on the application of current knowledge and research to technical problems, how to avoid operative problems, and how to salvage complications if they occur. The didactic text is complemented by abundant illustrations that highlight the essentials of each clinical scenario. The authors are all recognized international authorities active at congresses and workshops as well as in universities and hospitals across the world. ​

Origins of Human Language

This book proposes a detailed picture of the continuities and ruptures between communication in primates and language in humans. It explores a diversity of perspectives on the origins of language, including a fine description of vocal communication in animals, mainly in monkeys and apes, but also in birds, the study of vocal tract anatomy and cortical control of the vocal productions in monkeys and apes, the description of combinatory structures and their social and communicative value, and the exploration of the cognitive environment in which language may have emerged from nonhuman primate vocal or gestural communication.

Reviews in Computational Chemistry, Volume 27

This volume, like those prior to it, features chapters by experts in various fields of computational chemistry. Volume 27 covers brittle fracture, molecular detailed simulations of lipid bilayers, semiclassical bohmian dynamics, dissipative particle dynamics, trajectory-based rare event simulations, and understanding metal/metal electrical contact conductance from the atomic to continuum scales. Also included is a chapter on career opportunities in computational chemistry and an appendix listing the e-mail addresses of more than 2500 people in that discipline. FROM REVIEWS OF THE SERIES "Reviews in Computational Chemistry remains the most valuable reference to methods and techniques in computational chemistry." —JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR GRAPHICS AND MODELLING "One cannot generally do better than to try to find an appropriate article in the highly successful Reviews in Computational Chemistry. The basic philosophy of the editors seems to be to help the authors produce chapters that are complete, accurate, clear, and accessible to experimentalists (in particular) and other nonspecialists (in general)." —JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY

International Environmental Negotiation

This book develops a simple conceptual framework intended to clarify the distinctive attributes of international environmental negotiations. The framework is then applied by experts in the environmental field to a series of case analyses from a broad range of issues. Contributors discuss such issues as: climate change, ozone depletion, desertification, acid rain, sea pollution and biological diversity.

  • Publisher: Springer

This comprehensive book is more than a complete reference on knee fractures and associated injuries: it is also a decision-making and surgical guide that will assist trauma, knee, sports medicine, and total joint surgeons in planning and executing specific procedures for different traumatic conditions of the knee. Each chapter addresses a particular condition and its management, explaining the traumatic mechanism and preoperative workup and then describing in detail the surgical steps, from patient positioning to the postoperative regimen. Guidance is also provided on complications and their management, and to complete the coverage, results from the relevant literature are described. The authors are world-renowned experts keen to share their knowledge and expertise regarding specific traumatic conditions of the knee. Both experienced surgeons and orthopedic residents will find this book to be an invaluable tool that will improve their practice when dealing with knee fractures.
