Oeil et Maladies systémiques

By: SÈVE Pascal, KODJIKIAN Laurent

Les maladies systémiques regroupent un cadre hétérogène de maladies (connectivites, vascularites, granulomatoses…) dont la pathogénie est caractérisée par une atteinte de plusieurs organes. Bien qu’il s’agisse pour la plupart de maladies orphelines, ces pathologies sont susceptibles d’intéresser tous les médecins du fait de leur polymorphisme clinique. L’atteinte ophtalmologique est fréquente dans bon nombre de ces maladies, principalement en rapport avec une atteinte inflammatoire ou vasculaire. Elle constitue souvent une clé pour le diagnostic et peut mettre en jeu le pronostic fonctionnel en raison du risque de cécité. La sémiologie oculaire des maladies systémiques et les moyens d’explorations ophtalmologiques sont souvent mal connus des internistes ou des spécialistes d’organes. Inversement, les maladies systémiques sont l’objet de nombreuses interrogations de la part des ophtalmologistes. De ce constat est né Œil et Maladies systémiques qui présente, en 50 chapitres : • les principaux syndromes ophtalmologiques et les moyens d’explorations, destinés principalement aux non-ophtalmologistes • l’expression ophtalmologique des maladies systémiques (connectivites et vascularites, certaines maladies infectieuses et autres affections multiviscérales) ainsi que les aspects diagnostiques, pronostiques et thérapeutiques. Le professeur Pascal Sève, interniste, et le professeur Laurent Kodjikian, ophtalmologiste, tous deux rattachés à hôpital de la Croix-Rousse à Lyon, ont coordonné l’ouvrage dont les rédacteurs sont issus des diverses spécialités concernées : ophtalmologistes et internistes bien sûr, mais également spécialistes d’organes tels que dermatologues, néphrologues, neurologues, etc., tous référents reconnus dans leur domaine d’expertise. Ce livre apporte des réponses utiles et précises aux praticiens confrontés aux atteintes ophtalmologiques des maladies systémiques. Il intéressera donc les ophtalmologistes, internistes, rhumatologues, neurologues, pneumologues et autres spécialistes d’organes.

Cette publication est certainement la toute premiere grande syntese tematique et critique sur la condition des personnes socialement vulnérables (PSV) en Afrique.

Les differentes contributions sont assorties des recommandations fortes qui interpellent, pour leur application les détenteurs d'enjeu dans une démarche de co-construction pour une citovennete de transtormation active C'est un document de plaidoyer/réquisitoire et de lobbying en faveur de l'aménagement, de la protection et de l'amélioration des conditions sociales des personnes âgées et des personnes handicapées en Afrique autant en matière de santé, d'alimentation, de logement. denvironnement, de protection sociale. que de maintien de revenu. d emplo et denseignement. eu egard a raugmentation croissante de leurs effectts en valeu relative et absolue. a question des personnes socialement vulnerables est ainsi mist en avant-garde des préoccunations politico-sociales et scientifiques importantes voir permanentes. tlle tait robiet d'investigations et de réflexions récurrentes au sein d mecanisme soecia de Union Africaine au est le groupe de raval sur les personnes agee! et les personnes handicapées de la Commission Africaine des Droits de l'Homme et des Peuples. L'assignation matinale et originaire étant de construire des véhicules juridiques psychologiques, socio-antropologiques et portiques afin a amorcer un changement positit et une protection durable des oS. ainsi que des protocoles coutumiers pour leu valorisation dans les cultures et traditions atricaines This publication is certainly the first major thematic and critical synthesis on the condition of socially vulnerable persons (PSV) in Africa. An excellent line-up of 40 experts and institutions from different countries of the continent is making an effort to understand this phenomenon, which has become worrying, through a complex, retrospective, factual, current, quantified, punctual, prospective and relatively exhaustive analytical inventory. The various contributions are accompanied by strong recommendations that challenge the holders of issues for their application in a process of co-construction for an active citizenship of transformation. It is a document of advocacy/indictment and lobbying in favor of the development, protection and improvement of the social conditions of the elderly and persons with disabilities in Africa in terms of health, food, housing, environment, social protection, income maintenance, employment and education, given their increasing numbers in relative and absolute terms. The issue of socially vulnerable people is thus brought to the forefront of important, if not permanent, political-social and scientific concerns. It is the subject of recurrent investigations and reflections within the special mechanism of the African Union, the Working Group on Elderly Persons and Persons with Disabilities of the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights. The initial assignment is to build legal, psychological, socio-anthropological and political vehicles in order to initiate positive change and sustainable protection of VHPs, as well as customary protocols for their valorization in African cultures and traditions.

They Married Adventure

The Wandering Lives of Martin & Osa Johnson

By: Pascal James Imperato

Martin and Osa Johnson thrilled American audiences of the 1920s and 30s with their remarkable movies of far-away places, exotic peoples, and the dramatic spectacle of African wildlife. Their own lives were as exciting as the movies they made--sailing through the South Sea Islands, dodging big game at African waterholes, flying small planes over the veldt, taking millionaires on safari. Osa Johnson's ghostwritten autobiography, I Married Adventure, became a national bestseller. The 1939 film version was billed as "the story of World Exploration's First Lady, whose indomitable daring would be stayed by neither snarling lion nor crouching leopard, tropic tempest nor savage tribesman " Heroes to millions, Osa and Martin seemed to embody glamor, daring, and the all-American ideal of self-reliance. Probing beneath the glamor of the Johnsons' public image, Pascal and Eleanor Imperato explore the more human side of the couple's lives--and ways the Johnsons shaped, for better and for worse, America's vision of Africa. Drawing on many years of research, access to a wealth of letters and archives, interviews with many who worked closely with the Johnsons, and their own deep knowledge of Africa, the authors present a fascinating and intimate portrait of this intrepid couple.

Expressions of High Status

A Comparative Synthesis

By: Jean-Pascal Daloz

This book is an unprecedented effort to compare representations and practices of social distinction worldwide and over the centuries. It is based on years of observation in many countries and on the consultation of more than 2 500 multi-disciplinary publications dealing directly or indirectly with this theme. In two previous theoretical volumes on the topic (The Sociology of Elite Distinction and Rethinking Social Distinction) welcomed as major breakthroughs, Jean-Pascal Daloz has established himself as the foremost scholar of symbolic social superiority from a comparative perspective. After having rigorously shown the limits of the main analytical frameworks available and outlined a much more inductive approach, his new empirical book continues this intellectual journey. Taking into consideration all sorts of cases and patterns of meaning, it offers an impressive synthesis demonstrating how diverse the expressions of high status can be. This comparative work is intended to be a crucial reference point and an important source of inspiration for researchers and students across many fields.

The Tyranny of Guilt

The Tyranny of Guilt

An Essay on Western Masochism

By: Pascal Bruckner

Why the West must overcome its guilty conscience to foster a better global future Fascism, communism, genocide, slavery, racism, imperialism—the West has no shortage of reasons for guilt. And, indeed, since the Holocaust and the end of World War II, Europeans in particular have been consumed by remorse. But Pascal Bruckner argues that guilt has now gone too far. It has become a pathology, and even an obstacle to fighting today's atrocities. Bruckner, one of France's leading writers and public intellectuals, argues that obsessive guilt has obscured important realities. The West has no monopoly on evil, and has destroyed monsters as well as created them—leading in the abolition of slavery, renouncing colonialism, building peaceful and prosperous communities, and establishing rules and institutions that are models for the world. The West should be proud—and ready to defend itself and its values. In this, Europeans should learn from Americans, who still have sufficient self-esteem to act decisively in a world of chaos and violence. Lamenting the vice of anti-Americanism that grips so many European intellectuals, Bruckner urges a renewed transatlantic alliance, and advises Americans not to let recent foreign-policy misadventures sap their own confidence. This is a searing, provocative, and psychologically penetrating account of the crude thought and bad politics that arise from excessive bad conscience.

Jean Renoir: A Biography

By: Pascal Merigeau

Originally published in France in 2012, Pascal Mégeau's definitive biography of legendary film director Jean Renoir is a landmark work-the winner of a Prix Goncourt, France's top literary achievement. Now available in the English language for the first time, Jean Renoir: A Biography, is the definitive study of one of the most fascinating and creative artistic figures of the twentieth century. The French filmmaker made more than forty films from the silent era to the late '60s and today he is revered by filmmakers and seen by many as one of the greatest of all time. Renoir made acclaimed movies in France, America, India, and Italy and became a writer during the last part of his life. An estimated 75 percent of the book details previously unknown information about the filmmaker, including Renoir's close affiliation with Communism in the '30s (when he was the Party's official director) and his work with the fascist regimes during World War II; his previously uncredited Hollywood film, The Amazing Mrs. Holiday; and new information on the making of his most famous films. Drawing from unpublished or little known sources, this biography is a completely fresh approach to the maker of Grand Illusion and The Rules of the Game, redefining the very function of the movie director and simultaneously recounting the history of a century.

Handbook of Enology, Volume 1

The Microbiology of Wine and Vinifications

By: Pascal Ribéreau-Gayon,Denis Dubourdieu,Bernard B. Donèche,Aline A. Lonvaud

As an applied science, enology is a collection of knowledge from the fundamental sciences including chemistry, biochemistry, microbiology, bioengineering, psychophysics, cognitive psychology, etc., and nourished by empirical observations. The approach used in the Handbook of Enology is thus the same. It aims to provide practitioners, winemakers, technicians and enology students with foundational knowledge and the most recent research results. This knowledge can be used to contribute to a better definition of the quality of grapes and wine, a greater understanding of chemical and microbiological parameters, with the aim of ensuring satisfactory fermentations and predicting the evolution of wines, an7thd better mastery of wine stabilization processes. As a result, the purpose of this publication is to guide readers in their thought processes with a view to preserving and optimizing the identity and taste of wine and its aging potential. This third English edition of The Handbook of Enology, is an enhanced translation from the 7h French 2017 edition, and is published in print as individual themed volumes and as a two-volume set, describing aspects of winemaking using a detailed, scientific approach. The authors, who are highly-respected enologists, examine winemaking processes, theorizing what constitutes a perfect technique and the proper combination of components necessary to produce a quality vintage. They also illustrate methodologies of common problems, revealing the mechanism behind the disorder, thus enabling a diagnosis and solution. Volume 1: The Microbiology of Wine and Vinifications addresses the first phase of winemaking to produce an "unfinished" wine: grading grape quality and maturation, yeast biology then adding it to the grape crush and monitoring its growth during vinification; and identifying and correcting undesired conditions, such as unbalanced lactic and acetic acid production, use of sulfur dioxide and alternatives, etc. Coverage includes: Wine microbiology; Yeasts; Yeast metabolism; The conditions for the development of yeasts; Lactic acid bacteria, their metabolism and their development in wine; Acetic bacteria; The use of sulfur dioxide in the treatment of musts and wines; Products and processes acting in addition to sulfur dioxide; Winemaking; The grape and its maturation; Harvesting and processing of grapes after harvest; Vinification in red and white wine making. The target audience includes advanced viticulture and enology students, professors and researchers, and practicing grape growers and vintners.

Strategic Management of Innovation and Design

By: Pascal Le Masson,Benoît Weil,Armand Hatchuel

There is now widespread agreement that innovation holds the key to future economic and social prosperity in developed countries. Experts studying contemporary capitalism also agree that the battle against unemployment and relocations can only be won through innovation. But what kind of innovation is required and what is the best way to manage, steer and organize it? Grounded on experiences of innovative firms and based on recent design theories, this book argues that instead of relying on traditional R&D and project management techniques, the strategic management of innovation must be based on innovative design activities. It analyses and explains new management principles and techniques that deal with these activities, including innovation fields, lineages, C-K (Concept-Knowledge) diagrams and design spaces. The book is ideal for advanced courses in innovation management in industrial design schools, business schools, engineering schools, as well as managers looking to improve their practice.
