Contact in the 16th Century
From Labrador to Lake Ontario, the Gulf of Saint Lawrence to French Acadia, and Huronia-Wendaki to Tadoussac, and from one chapter to the next, this scholarly collection of archaeological findings focuses on 16th century European goods found in Native contexts and within greater networks, forming a conceptual interplay of place and mobility. The four initial chapters are set around the Gulf of Saint Lawrence where Euro-Native contact was direct and the historical record is strongest. Contact networks radiated northward into Inuit settings where European iron nails, roofing tile fragments and ceramics are found. Glass beads are scarce on Inuit sites as well as on Basque sites on the Gulf’s ...

Eastern Métis
In Eastern Métis, Michel Bouchard, Sébastien Malette, and Siomonn Pulla demonstrate the historical and social evidence for the origins and continued existence of Métis communities across Ontario, Quebec, and the Canadian Maritimes as well as the West. Contributors to this edited collection explore archival and historical records that challenge narratives which exclude the possibility of Métis communities and identities in central and eastern Canada. Taking a continental rhizomatic approach, this book provides a rich and nuanced view of what it means to be Métis.
Technological Adoption and Trends in Health Sciences Teaching, Learning, and Practice
The use of technology in health sciences has a direct impact on health outcomes, as well as on the quality and the safety of healthcare processes. In addition, the use of new technological developments in medical education has proven to be greatly effective and creates realistic learning environments to experience procedures and devices that will become common in medical practice. However, bringing new technologies into the health sector is a complex task, which is why a comprehensive vision of the health sciences ecosystem (encompassing many different areas of research) is vital. Technological Adoption and Trends in Health Sciences Teaching, Learning, and Practice obtains an overview of the...
Maine to Greenland
Maine to Greenland is a testament to one of the world's great geographic regions: the Maritime Far Northeast. For more than three decades, William W. Fitzhugh and Wilfred E. Richard have explored the Northeast’s Atlantic corridor and its fascinating history, habitat, and culture. The authors’ powerful personal essays and Richard’s stunning photography transport readers to this vibrant region, joining Smithsonian archaeological expeditions and trekking in vast and amazing terrain. Following Fitzhugh and Richard’s travels north—from Maine to the Canadian Maritimes, Newfoundland and northern Quebec, then to Labrador, Baffin and Ellesmere islands, and Greenland—we view incredible lan...
The Archaeology of Maritime Landscapes
Maritime cultural landscapes are collections of submerged archaeological sites, or combinations of terrestrial and submerged sites that reflect the relationship between humans and the water. These landscapes can range in size from a single beach to an entire coastline and can include areas of terrestrial sites now inundated as well as underwater sites that are now desiccated. However, what binds all of these sites together is the premise that each aspect of the landscape –cultural, political, environmental, technological, and physical – is interrelated and can not be understood without reference to the others. In this maritime cultural landscape approach, individual sites are treated as ...
Atlas of Anatomy of the peripheral nerves
This book focuses on the anatomy of the peripheral nervous system. Using the latest 3D-computer graphic modeling techniques, the author developed the innovative NEURO 3D LOCATORTM concept, which provides 3D in-vivo ultrasound images of peripheral nerve architectures, allowing readers to develop a mental real-time 3D GPS of the peripheral nervous system. This new edition is an extended version of the “Student edition” dedicated to Experts and is divided into three main parts: The first part describes fundamental concepts, from immunohistochemistry to limb innervation, and includes a detailed evaluation of the morphofunctional anatomy of the peripheral nerves. It also presents relevant dat...
Dictionnaire d'anatomie
Cet ouvrage se veut un outil pratique pour l'étudiant en médecine souhaitant aborder sereinement cette discipline complexe et nouvelle qu'est l'anatomie. L'anatomie est une discipline qui surprend, voire désempare lorsqu'on y est confronté pour la première fois. L'acquisition des connaissances anatomiques engendre un certain nombre de frustrations : difficulté de prise de notes, de compréhension des termes, d'identification et de reproduction des structures. Pour se familiariser avec l'anatomie, cet ouvrage propose quelque 800 entrées, classées par ordre alphabétique, couvrant l'ensemble de la terminologie des régions anatomiques que doit acquérir l'étudiant en PCEM en anatomie ...
