Manuel de linguistique populaire
Loin de désigner génériquement différentes formes de métalangage, la linguistique populaire constitue aujourd’hui un domaine propre, qui englobe les représentations et pratiques épi- et métalinguistiques (perceptions, savoirs, discours, interventions, etc.) des locuteur·trice·s « ordinaires » ou non-linguistes – situés hors du champ scientifique ou de contextes hégémoniques institutionnalisés – ainsi que, au niveau méta, l’étude de ces représentations et pratiques. Le présent manuel envisage d’abord la linguistique populaire d’un point de vue historiographique, théorique et méthodologique : il interroge notamment la délimitation entre « linguistes » et « non-linguistes » et examine en détail les défis liés à la collecte de données. L’ouvrage explore ensuite les rapports entre la linguistique populaire et les domaines linguistiques limitrophes tels que la traductologie, la didactique et la lexicographie. Enfin, le volume rend compte des recherches concrètes ayant été menées dans le domaine de la linguistique populaire en langues romanes.

Breast and Gynecological Cancers
Low- and middle-income countries have seen a dramatic rise in the incidence of breast and gynecological cancers in the past decade. Organized cancer screening programs are not widely available in developing countries, leading to disproportionately higher mortality rates compared to those in the developed world. This book addresses cost-effective strategies for implementing programs aimed at screening for the early detection of breast, cervical, endometrial, and ovarian cancers. A well woman clinic concept providing such services as part of women’s health examinations is proposed, aiming to ensure patient compliance by limiting clinic visits required for initial testing and diagnosis of screen positive cases.
