Inside Coma

A New View of Awareness, Healing, and Hope

By: Pierre Morin M.D.,Gary Reiss Ph.D.

Offering a new view and a fascinating understanding of coma states, this hope-filled work explains technology-driven insights and describes practices with which family members and caregivers can help promote recovery. Exciting scientific discoveries are validating what coma therapists Dr. Pierre Morin and Dr. Gary Reiss have been teaching for years: that coma patients' awareness is both detailed and complex, and their chances of significant recovery is much greater than previously thought. Inside Coma: A New View of Awareness, Healing, and Hope describes practical, body-centered ways of communicating with coma patients, showing family members and caregivers how to enter the patient's inner world of experience to engage their will and power to heal. Advocating for a new, ethical sensitivity that gives patients in remote and comatose states a right to exist, the authors explain the newest developments in the cutting-edge treatment of coma patients through a mind-body approach to medicine and healing, placing these developments in the context of the changing field of consciousness studies. They teach, challenge, and inspire readers to a new level of understanding, compassion, and intervention, offering basic tools with which health-care professionals and family members alike can begin this remarkably effective work.

HEALTH IN SICKNESS - SICKNESS IN HEALTH

Towards a New Process Oriented Medicine

By: Pierre Morin

In Health-in-Sickness, Pierre Morin suggests that the classical approach to defining illness and health not only lacks the elixir perspective on disturbances, an approach that is suggested by alternative medicine, but in fact, also has an “opposite placebo” effect, in creating a sense of being victimized and at fault for having the symptom. His book contains many practical examples and is useful to both health practitioners as well as patients. First and foremost, it begins a long overdue conversation about the very concepts of health and sickness, and what is considered to be “normal.” Morin's book is an important contribution to the broad transdisciplinary discussions regarding individual and collective well-being.

Solemn Words and Foundational Documents

An Annotated Discussion of Indigenous-Crown Treaties in Canada, 1752-1923

By: Jean-Pierre Morin

In Solemn Words and Foundational Documents, Jean-Pierre Morin unpacks the complicated history of Indigenous treaties in Canada. By including the full text of eight significant treaties from across the country—each accompanied by a cast of characters, related sources, discussion questions, and an essay by the author—he teaches readers how to analyze and understand treaties as living documents. The book begins by examining treaties concluded during the height of colonial competition, when France and Britain each sought to solidify their alliances with Indigenous peoples. It then goes on to tell the stories of treaty negotiations from across the country: the miscommunication of ideas and words from Crown representatives to treaty text; the varying ranges of rights and promises; treaty negotiations for which we have a rich oral history but limited written records; multiple phases of post-Confederation treaty-making; and the unique case of competing treaties with radically different interpretations.

The life and pioneering work of Louis-Victor Marcé (1828-1864)

The social history of medicine

By: Thérèse Lempérière,Jean-Pierre Luauté

The publication in 2012 by Éditions Glyphe of The Life and Pioneering Work of Louis-Victor Marcé answered the need for a study of Marcé's life and work. The Marcé Society had long pointed to the dearth of information on Marcé's life and the need to situate Marcé's magisterial Treatise on the Madness of Pregnant Women in the context of Marcé's entire scholarly production. The thorough investigation conducted by the late Thérèse Lempérière (1925-2013) and Jean-Pierre Luauté brings to light for the first time the facts surrounding Marcé's tragic death and sheds additional light on Marcé's genius as clinician and pioneer in underexplored fields of pathology. ABOUT THE AUTHORS Thérèse Lempérière (1925-2013) was a Professor of Psychiatry in Paris where she worked with Jean Delay and Pierre Deniker and contributed to the launching of neuroleptics; she was the author of many training books among witch Psychiatry of the adults. Jean-Pierre Luauté neuropsychiatrist, worked for 30 years in a state hospital in the department of la Drôme, he is interested in the study of the borders between psychiatry ans neurology and by the history of these specialities.

Communal Medicine

A Path to Physical, Emotional, and Social Health

By: Pierre Morin

Health and sickness are mystifying processes full of meaning and challenges. They are embedded in social and cultural environments that benefit some more than others and thus need us all to hone our social awareness and skills. They are also dreaming processes that require a new process-oriented intelligence and practice. Communal Medicine is about exploring the many intertwined experiences we have when we are getting sick or are facing illness. It is about understanding the lived experience of disease and the objective realities of medicine within their individual, social, cultural, dreaming, and spiritual contexts. Understanding the complex layers of a person’s and community’s health care experience will help health care providers and participants alike improve their own and their patients’/clients’ physical, emotional, and social health.

Environmental DNA

For Biodiversity Research and Monitoring

By: Pierre Taberlet,Aurélie Bonin,Lucie Zinger,Eric Coissac

Environmental DNA (eDNA) refers to DNA that can be extracted from environmental samples (such as soil, water, feces, or air) without the prior isolation of any target organism. The analysis of environmental DNA has the potential of providing high-throughput information on taxa and functional genes in a given environment, and is easily amenable to the study of both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. It can provide an understanding of past or present biological communities as well as their trophic relationships, and can thus offer useful insights into ecosystem functioning. There is now a rapidly-growing interest amongst biologists in applying analysis of environmental DNA to their own research. However, good practices and protocols dealing with environmental DNA are currently widely dispersed across numerous papers, with many of them presenting only preliminary results and using a diversity of methods. In this context, the principal objective of this practical handbook is to provide biologists (both students and researchers) with the scientific background necessary to assist with the understanding and implementation of best practices and analyses based on environmental DNA.

Ethics in Social Networking and Business 1

Theory, Practice and Current Recommendations

By: Pierre Massotte

This book, the first of two volumes dedicated to ethics in social networking and business, presents the notions, theories and practical aspects related to ethics, morale and deontology in our society. Through a series of discussions and examples on topics ranging from complexity to evolution theories, the author provides an insight into why business ethics is essential for managing risks and uncertainties. The Ethics in Social Networking and Business series is the result of a cross-integration of real experiences (from IBM, society and the Rotary Club), transdisciplinary works in decision making, and advances at the boundaries of several scientific fields.

The Force of Prejudice

On Racism and Its Doubles

By: Pierre-André Taguieff

Pierre-Andr Taguieff puts forward a powerful thesis: that racism has evolved from an argument about races, naturalizing inequality between "biologically" defined groups on the basis of fear of the other, to an argument about cultures, naturalizing historical differences and justifying exclusion. Correspondingly, Taguieff shows how antiracism must adopt the strategy that fits the variety of racism it opposes. Already viewed as an essential work of reference in France, The Force of Prejudice is an invaluable tool for identifying and understanding both racism and its antidote in our day

Radiology of the small intestine

By: Pierre Bret,Christine Cuche,Gerard Schmutz

There is a tradition behind the current radiologic examination of the small bowel. Many of the great names in gastrointestinal radiology have established their reputations on the basis of their work in the small bowel. This is an area which is assuming ever greater importance for radiologists as its mucosal surface continues to elude the endos copist. Moreover, it is an aspect of radiology which calls for the greatest technical and interpretative skill. It is a great pleasure to welcome the English language version of this beautiful work on Radiology of the Small Intestine. English speaking physicians are frequently not as familiar with the large body of work published in French as they should be. Tant pis ! Dr. Bret and his co-workers have been pioneers in the pursuit of excellence in gastrointestinal radiology. During all the years that I have been involved in this field, I have admired their work.

Pathology of Pediatric Gastrointestinal and Liver Disease

By: Pierre Russo

Pediatric gastrointestinal and liver biopsies comprise a significant portion of specimens examined by the pathology laboratory. The increasingly widespread use of endoscopic procedures in children, the improved sophistication of medical imagery, as well as expanding knowledge in genetic medicine have led to new advances and opportunities in pediatric hepatogastroenterology and pathology. Pathology of Pediatric Gastrointestinal and Liver Disease will provide the pediatric pathologist, GI and general pathologist and pediatric gastroenterologist with the most current and complete reference on the pathology of pediatric GI and liver diseases. With an emphasis on clinical pathological correlation, and edited by a multi-disciplinary team of pathologists and a gastroenterologist, the book will provide in-depth discussions on topics frequently encountered and for which currrent information is not readily available. Comprised of 16 chapters following an anatomical outline, the text will cover both the GI and liver and will include discussions on: malabsorption and motolity disorders, immunodeficiencies, including HIV, development malformations, food allergies, cystic diseases of the liver, esophageal and pancreatic disorders. Heavily illustrated with over 450 illustrations, 200 of which in full color throughout, the book will include endoscopic and radiographic images to correlate with the pathologic principles under discussion.
