Digital Sovereignty!

At the borders of real and virtualAt the borders of real and virtual

By: Sylvie Bedard

Have you noticed that artificial intelligence is the hot topic of the moment? Yet, for over a decade, this reality has radically changed our lives, well hidden in our new virtually digital reality. After sharing her vision of "Presence" with a 1st book in the context of business and marketing to improve customer and employee relations in the digital reality, this 2nd book expresses the same desire to preserve the relational quality between us. A decade on, we need to have an urgent conversation about the very essence of humanity in a world dominated by technology. Her vision of digital sovereignty presents itself as an accessible solution that must guide the evolution of the artificial intelligence race and combat unbridled digital capitalism by bringing the digital imperialists to heel. It's not a plea for or against artificial intelligence. It's a plea in favor of the urgent need to take a collective stand in order to build a future in human dignity with these intelligent machines that are invading us under the pretext of "natural" evolution. To act, we need to understand. Without pretension, but with lucidity, you are invited to discover the path and legacy of digital colonialism, and even the domination of digital emperors, in order to grasp the full extent of its impact on our reality, which is anything but virtual. Popularized, accessible explanations of the issues at stake, so as to fully grasp this universe. A critical and constructive look at how we can hold the reins of this unbridled wild horse that is artificial intelligence. Whether you're a private citizen, a worker, a company director, a civil servant, a member of parliament, etc., everyone is concerned, without exception. Yes, even you, especially those who don't feel concerned. This is a call for collective mobilization.

Isabelle's Notebooks

By: Sylvie Chaput

Following the love story of painter Joseph Légaré's niece, Isabelle Forest, and novelist Philippe Aubert de Gaspé, Sylvie Chaput carefully and creatively chronicles her picture of Quebec in the 1830s. Chaput writes of the turbulence Quebec endured as her lovers battle the dangers of severe political unrest and a huge cholera epidemic. This novel also recalls the role of art, specifically painting, as a permanent force in a tumultuous world.

New Directions in Behavioral Intervention Development for Pediatric Obesity, An Issue of Pediatric Clinics of North America

By: Sylvie Naar-King

Almost one out of every three US children is overweight or obese, with minority youth at highest risk. There are limited efficacious pediatric obesity interventions available for clinicians, and successful weight loss trials for minority youth are rare. Even fewer interventions have been shown to significantly improve clinical health outcomes such as adiposity, blood pressure, and cholesterol level, and maintenance of behavior change over the long-term remains a challenge Translation I research in which "bench" findings are applied to the "bedside" is uncommon in the behavioral arena. Thus, advances in our understanding of fundamental human processes such as motivation, emotion, cognition, self-regulation, decision-making, stress, and social networks are not being optimally applied to our most pressing behavioral health problems. This issue of Pediatric Clinics will focus on promising behavioral treatments "in the pipeline" that have been translated from basic behavioral science and are the process of refinement and proof of concept testing.

Vingt ans apres, Habitants et marchands

Lectures de l'histoire des XVIIe et XVIIIe siecles canadiens

By: Sylvie Dépatie,Catherine Desbarats

Habitants et marchands, Twenty Years Later includes eleven essays, seven of which are in French, that highlight current research in Quebec studies. Danielle Gauvreau, Dale Miquelon, and Louis Michel survey recent developments on population, merchants, and rural society respectively. Allan Greer studies Kateri Tekakwitha, the first Amerindian to be beatified. William Wicken analyses relations between Mi'kmaq and Acadians. Bruce White and Thomas Wien examine the fur trade, with White focusing on the Lake Superior region and Wien on the St Lawrence Valley. Catherine Desbarats looks at the role of the state as a buyer of goods and services in Canada. Mario Lalancette and Alan M. Stewart study the evolution of Montreal's urban geography in the seventeenth century. Geneviève Postolec analyses matrimonial practices at Neuville, and Sylvie Dépatie examines the urban and peri-urban countryside in Montreal's gardens and orchards. The collection offers valuable perspectives on both the history of New France and the socio-economic history of colonial societies.
