Atlas of Cutaneous Branch Territories for the Diagnosis of Neuropathic Pain
This atlas is the result of research involving over 3,000 patients consecutively recruited since 2004. Clinical practice gives the opportunity to observe many more Aβ axonal lesions (axonotmesis) than transections (neurotmesis), consequently the mapped hypo aesthetic territories are partial. Therefore, the authors define for each cutaneous nerve branch, the autonomous territory and the boundary markers of the largest territory of cutaneous origin. Each anatomical chart of a cutaneous branch is the superposition of tens, even hundreds of observations seen in clinical practice – based on 3,133 maps of observed cutaneous hypoaesthetic territories. The data collected has also been cross-refer...
Handbook of Palaeodemography
This book examines methods for linking osteo-archaeological data with historical and environmental sources to shed light on the living conditions of past populations. Covering all time periods from prehistory to the 20th century, it aims to construct models that capture plausible demographic dynamics from highly fragmentary evidence. Starting from the known in order to explore the unknown, this book presents a historical view of methods used in the past and present as well as proposes original ones. The paleodemographic methods presented in this handbook have been tested on anthropological and archaeological data and can easily be applied. This manual represents a fruitful collaboration between historical demographers and anthropological archaeologists who, with the help of mathematicians and statisticians, detail research that opens an important historical dimension to the discipline. Written in a readily understandable manner, it serves as an ideal resource for those wishing to interpret ancient bones in demographic terms.
Recent Advances in Palaeodemography
This book has been developed from a core of papers selected for the paleodemographic session of the 25th World Population Congress (July 2005, Tours, France). It covers recent paleodemographic innovations, in terms of data, techniques and the detection of patterns making it possible to highlight hitherto unknown prehistoric demographic processes.
Preventing Chaos in a Crisis
A crisis management program drawing on extensive consultations with major industrial groups worldwide. The author lays out a broad, practical strategic framework that helps decision-makers prevent, anticipate, limit, and control crisis situations, including how to respond to the media and avoid becoming a victim of crisis. Valuable real-world case studies are highlighted for quick reference, and major points are summarized in each chapter.
Sensory Biographies
Robert Desjarlais's graceful ethnography explores the life histories of two Yolmo elders, focusing on how particular sensory orientations and modalities have contributed to the making and the telling of their lives. These two are a woman in her late eighties known as Kisang Omu and a Buddhist priest in his mid-eighties known as Ghang Lama, members of an ethnically Tibetan Buddhist people whose ancestors have lived for three centuries or so along the upper ridges of the Yolmo Valley in north central Nepal. It was clear through their many conversations that both individuals perceived themselves as nearing death, and both were quite willing to share their thoughts about death and dying. The difference between the two was remarkable, however, in that Ghang Lama's life had been dominated by motifs of vision, whereas Kisang Omu's accounts of her life largely involved a "theatre of voices." Desjarlais offers a fresh and readable inquiry into how people's ways of sensing the world contribute to how they live and how they recollect their lives.
Vie quotidienne et pouvoir sous le communisme. Consommer à l'Est
Vingt ans après la chute du mur de Berlin, des musées proposent aux écoliers des reconstitutions de la vie quotidienne sous le communisme, au risque de leur donner une image exotique d'un passé récent. La consommation fournit aux auteurs de cet ouvrage un prisme à travers lequel interroger les vies quotidiennes sous le socialisme, au-delà de la seule dimension répressive des ordres politiques. Elle met en lumière des goûts et des sensibilités, des savoirs et savoir-faire qui particiupèrent également d'une logique de distinction sociale. en réinsérant les expériences socialistes dans des historicités plus logues, son analyse invite à envisager autrement l'articulation entre les démocraties populaires et le centre impérial soviétique, et donne à voir des circulations Est-Ouest au tracé plus complexe que ne le laisse penser l'image manichéenne de la Guerre froide. En définitive, se trouvent éclairés certaines des conditions de possibilité et de reproduction des systèmes communistes.
Littérature francophone et mondialisation
Si, pour le sociologue Jacques Leenhardt, la littérature est, dans nos sociétés, indissolublement livre (objet pris dans un circuit marchand), oeuvre littéraire (travail sur la pensée et le langage) et lecture (communication entre un écrivain et un lecteur), la désunion entre l’objet et sa lecture va désormais grandissant, symptôme manifeste des fluctuations d’une industrie de la culture irrévocablement mondialisée. En effet, les nouvelles donnes de l’activité économique du livre dépendent de conglomérats financiers régis par des logiques de rendement qui débordent les enclaves singulières pour former des réseaux par-delà une géographie prédéfinie. Le livre franc...
Systèmes agraires et changement climatique au Sud
A partir de l’étude comparée de situations locales contrastées en Afrique sub-saharienne et en Asie du Sud-Est, ce livre met en évidence les processus qui expliquent la forte exposition aux aléas des différents groupes d’agriculteurs ainsi que leur inégale capacité d’adaptation. Il présente les modalités d’ajustement aux changements globaux et il esquisse des propositions de mesures politiques pour accompagner les producteurs.
