Victor Lévy-Beaulieu s'apprête à faire paraître aux Éditions Trois-Pistoles un essai-fleuve de près de 1400 pages portant sur Nietzsche. Les Cahiers de lecture nous offre en primeur un extrait dans lequel il est question de moralité des moeurs et de corruption. Outre cette exclusivité, la revue nous propose des recensions d'essais qui se préoccupent de « Reconfiguration de l'état » avec des titres comme La fin de l'état de droit? (Frédéric Bérard), Social-démocratie 2.0. Le Québec comparé aux pays scandinaves (Stéphane Paquin et Pier-Luc Lévesque) et Il était une fois des usines. Essor, déclin et relance de l'industrie québécoise (Jacques Houle). Une deuxième catégorie d'essais se rapportant aux arts et à la culture traite notamment du récent essai de Catherine Voyer-Léger, Métier critique et de celui d'Yves Vaillancourt sur le Décalogue de Kieslowski.
This new resource provides a basic foundation in small animal anatomy for students of veterinary medicine, animal science, and veterinary technology. Extraordinary accuracy and beautiful original artwork make this a truly unique learning tool that includes the anatomy of all organ systems in the dog, cat, rabbit, rat, and guinea pig - all described in a consistent manner. Learning features include: carefully selected labeling helps students learn and remember structures and relationships; male and female of species are depicted on facing pages so topographic anatomy can be compared; structures common to various animals are labeled several times, whereas unique structures are labeled on one or two species so students can make rapid distinctions of the structures peculiar to certain animals; and an introduction that provides readers with a background in nomenclature and anatomic orientation so they can benefit from the atlas even if they lack training in anatomy.
The Atlas depicts topographic relationships of major organs in a simple, yet technically accurate presentation that's free from extraneous material so that those using the atlas can concentrate on the essential aspects of anatomy. It will be an invaluable resource for veterinary students, teachers and practitioners alike.
Une grande constante traverse le dernier numéro de l'année de la revue Nuit blanche : celle du voyage. En plus de toutes les nouveautés québécoises et internationales, voici le menu qu'elle nous propose. Premièrement un panorama de la littérature routière et vagabonde, de Okanagan de Sara Lazzaroni à L'Astronome dur à cuire de Jonathan Ruel en passant par Le Fil des kilomètres de Christian Guay-Poliquin. Ensuite une approche particulière de l'« indianité » à travers l'oeuvre de Louise Erdrich et Thomas King. Puis, un anniversaire : la maison d'édition L'Instant même fête ses 30 ans et se raconte à rebours. De nombreuses pages seront consacrées aux correspondances du clan Ferron. L'écrivain méconnu du XXe siècle mis à l'honneur sera le moderniste et voyageur Luc Durtain (1881-1959).

Cette nouvelle parution de Voix et images nous propose un réexamen de « La révolution littéraire des années 1940 au Québec ». Voulant éclairer autrement le récit officiel, ce dossier cherche à déterminer les interactions qui existent entre le centre et la marge, entre les oeuvres reconnues et les discours trop souvent délaissés par la critique. En tenant compte des productions populaires et médiatiques, les articles réunis ici proposent une saisie inédite des bouleversements de la décennie 1940, marquée par la Seconde Guerre mondiale, le déploiement des grands journaux et de la presse spécialisée, l'essor de la radio, etc. En somme, ce dossier souhaite faire voir la complexité du choc qui provoque l'exceptionnelle ébullition des années 1940 et qui offre l'occasion de saisir la façon dont le littéraire fait sens de l'ensemble de la société de l'époque, où à la fois le pôle littéraire, le pôle médiatique, le marché, la critique savante et les institutions acquièrent d'un coup une maturité sans précédent.
Binocular vision, i.e. where both eyes are used together, is a fundamental component of human sight. It also aids hand-eye co-ordination, and the perception of the self within the environment. Clinical anomalies pose a wide range of problems to the sufferer, but normal binocular operation must first be understood before the eye specialist can assess and treat dysfunctions. This is a major new textbook for students of optometry, orthoptics and ophthalmology, and also of psychology. Chapters span such key topics as binocular summation, fusion, the normal horopter, anatomy of the extra-ocular muscles, oculomotor control, binocular integration and depth perception. Fully illustrated throughout, the book includes self-assessment exercises at the end of each chapter, and sample experiments in binocular vision functioning.

As the Internet's presence in health care grows more pervasive, an increasing number of health care providers have begun to implement eHealth innovations in their practice. The interactive health communication system (IHCS), one such eHealth solution, provides consumers with information, informal support, and a venue for communication. Investing in eHealth: What it Takes to Sustain Consumer Health Informatics examines the evolution of the IHCS and the significant changes in organizational culture and operational systems that may be required for successful and sustained implementation.
This book explores the development of a model (funded by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality in 1998) to predict and explain the degree of success of such implementation efforts. This model allows an institution to benchmark its progress towards IHCS implementation and advises administrators where to invest resources to increase the chance of successful implementation. A set of case studies highlights key features of the model; each study describes an attempt by an organization to implement the Comprehensive Health Enhancement Support System (CHESS), a proven IHCS. After examining the success or failure of each particular implementation, the book suggests steps that could have been taken to address weaknesses identified by the model. Investing in eHealth culminates in a set of general guidelines for any health care provider striving to successfully employ the model, and suggests directions for future research.
This volume presents a series of overview articles arising from a workshop exploring the links among shallow clouds, water vapor, circulation, and climate sensitivity. It provides a state-of-the art synthesis of understanding about the coupling of clouds and water vapor to the large-scale circulation. The emphasis is on two phenomena, namely the self-aggregation of deep convection and interactions between low clouds and the large-scale environment, with direct links to the sensitivity of climate to radiative perturbations. Each subject is approached using simulations, observations, and synthesizing theory; particular attention is paid to opportunities offered by new remote-sensing technologies, some still prospective. The collection provides a thorough grounding in topics representing one of the World Climate Research Program's Grand Challenges.

Current and comprehensive information concerning the assessment and treatment of suicidal persons and the prevention of suicidal behavior The eighth leading cause of death in the United States and the second leading cause among U.S. teens, suicide is unique in being self-inflicted and is, as such, often preventable. By assessing the risk of suicide accurately, providing effective treatment according to this risk, and implementing strategies against suicidal urges, mental health professionals can successfully guide their clients away from this senseless taking of life. Assessment, Treatment, and Prevention of Suicidal Behavior provides the most current and comprehensive source of information, guidelines, and case studies for working with clients at risk of suicide. It offers clinicians, counselors, and other mental health professionals a practical toolbox on three main areas of interest: Screening and Assessment covers empirically based assessment techniques and how they can define dimensions of vulnerability and measure the risk of self-destructive behavior. Authors discuss research on the use of each screening instrument, guidelines and suggestions for using the instrument in practice, and a case study illustrating its application. Intervention and Treatment compares several different approaches for structuring psychotherapy with suicidal clients. Each author covers a psychotherapy system, its application to suicidal clients, and a case study of its real-world use. Suicide and Violence explores the relationship between suicidal individuals and violence, covering suicide in specific contexts such as school violence, police confrontations, and terrorist violence. This section also includes a discussion of the increased risk of suicide in our more insecure and violent world, as well as how topromote coping styles for these new anxieties. While addressed mainly to psychologists, social workers, and other mental health professionals for use in serving their clients, as well as students of psychology, Assessment, Treatment, and Prevention of Suicidal Behavior is also an accessible and valuable resource for educators, school counselors, and others in related fields.

This book looks at new ways of tackling the problem of separating reaction products from homogeneous catalytic solutions. The new processes involve low leaching supported catalysts, soluble supports such as polymers and dendrimers and unusual solvents such as water, fluorinated organics, ionic liquids and supercritical fluids. The advantages of the different possibilities are discussed alongside suggestions for further research that will be required for commercialisation. Unlike other books, in addition to the chemistry involved, the book looks at the process design that would be required to bring the new approaches to fruition. Comparisons are given with existing processes that have already been successfully applied and examples are given where these approaches are not suitable. The book includes:
- New processes for the separation of products from solutions containing homogeneous catalysts
- Catalysts on insoluble or soluble supports - fixed bed catalysts - continuous flow or ultrafiltration
- Biphasic systems: water - organic, fluorous - organic, ionic liquid - organic, supercritical fluids (monophasic or biphasic with water, organic or ionic liquid)
- Comparisons with current processes involving atmospheric or low temperature distillation
- Consideration of Chemistry and Process Design
- Advantages and disadvantages of each process exposed
- Consideration of what else is need for commercialisation

When installed and operated properly, general purpose steam turbines are reliable and tend to be forgotten, i.e., out of sound and out of mind. But, they can be sleeping giants that can result in major headaches if ignored. Three real steam turbine undesirable consequences that immediately come to mind are: Injury and secondary damage due to an overspeed failure. An overspeed failure on a big steam or gas turbine is one of the most frightening of industrial accidents. The high cost of an extensive overhaul due to an undetected component failure. A major steam turbine repair can cost ten or more times that of a garden variety centrifugal pump repair. Costly production loses due an extended outage if the driven pump or compressor train is unspared. The value of lost production can quickly exceed repair costs. A major goal of this book is to provide readers with detailed operating procedure aimed at reducing these risks to minimal levels. Start-ups are complicated by the fact that operators must deal with numerous start-up scenarios, such as: Commissioning a newly installed steam turbine Starting ups after a major steam turbine repair Starting up a proven steam turbine after an outage Overspeed trip testing It is not enough to simply have a set of procedures in the control room for reference. To be effective, operating procedures must be clearly written down, taught, and practiced-until they become habit.
