Disability and Social Representations Theory

The Case of Hearing Loss

By: Vinaya Manchaiah,Berth Danermark,Per Germundsson,Pierre Ratinaud

Disability and Social Representations Theory provides theoretical and methodological knowledge to uncover the public perception of disabilities. Over the last decade there has been a significant shift from body to environment, and the relation between the two, when understanding the phenomenon of disabilities. The current trend is to view disabilities as the outcome of this interaction; in short from a biopsychosocial perspective. This has called for research based on frameworks that incorporate both the body and the environment. There is a great corpus of knowledge of the functions of a body, and a growing corpus of environmental factors such as perceptions among specific groups of persons towards disabilities. However, there is a lack of knowledge of the perception of disabilities from a general population. This book offers an insight into how we can broaden our understanding of disability by using Social Representations Theory, with specific examples from studies on hearing loss. The authors highlight that attitudes and actions are outcomes of a more fundamental disposition (i.e., social representation) towards a phenomenon like disability. This book is written assuming the reader has no prior knowledge of Social Representations Theory. It will be of interest to all scholars, students and professionals working in the fields of disability studies, health and social care, and sociology.

L'optique dans les instruments : Applications à la médecine et à la biologie

By: GOURE Jean-Pierre

Les instruments jouent un rôle primordial dans l’avancée scientifique et technologique. Les ouvrages de cette mini-série consacrée à l’optique dans les instruments ont pour but de montrer que l’optique et les composants optiques constituent souvent la partie essentielle autour de laquelle interviennent l’électronique, la mécanique et l’informatique. Le premier tome a décrit les bases nécessaires à la compréhension des phénomènes physiques mis en jeu. Ce second tome a pour but d’illustrer par divers exemples le rôle fondamental de l’optique dans l’instrumentation destinée à la biologie et à la médecine. Sont développés quelques instruments utilisés en routine pour l’analyse et la caractérisation, des instruments de très haute complexité permettant aux chercheurs d’avoir accès à des mesures ultra précises ainsi que des technologies prometteuses actuellement en développement. Enfin ces exemples permettront de voir l’impact des lasers non seulement dans l’instrumentation mais aussi dans les soins médicaux depuis l’ophtalmologie jusqu’à la chirurgie et le traitement de nombreuses maladies.
