Médecin légiste depuis plus de trente ans, le docteur Philippe Boxho nous fait découvrir dans cet ouvrage son quotidien fait de morts qui ne le sont pas toujours ou pas encore, de disparitions de cadavres, de dissimulations de meurtres, de suicides étonnants. De la scène de crime à la salle d’autopsie, entre pratique médicale et enquête policière, l’expert médico-légal nous raconte son métier, qui est aussi sa passion. Il nous relate ainsi l’évolution du corps après la mort à travers des histoires de mouches, puis il s’arrête sur cet homme qui pensait mourir d’un seul coup de feu et qui a dû s’y prendre à quatorze reprises, sur cet autre qui, en voulant se pendre, est finalement décédé d’une fracture du crâne, sur ce meurtrier qui n’aurait jamais dû consommer d’alcool ou encore sur cette morte qui avait le mauvais goût de transpirer. Les histoires rassemblées ici sont toutes vraies, rien n’est inventé. Il n’y a d’ailleurs pas besoin d’inventer, la réalité se suffit à elle-même tant l’imagination humaine est libérée quand il s’agit de mourir, de tuer, de se suicider, de faire disparaître un corps. Âmes sensibles s’abstenir…

Les morts ont la parole

Notre rapport à la santé a changé. Les traitements se sont diversifiés. Face à un problème de mal-être ou de santé, nous ne savons pas toujours vers qui nous tourner ou qui consulter. Se donner toutes les chances, c’est découvrir les bienfaits des médecines conventionnelles et complémentaires, mais aussi mesurer à quel point notre propre rôle est essentiel. Natacha Calestrémé donne la parole à des médecins et des chercheurs reconnus pour leur expertise scientifique et leur connaissance des pratiques thérapeutiques, et ouvre de nouveaux horizons pour nous aider à aller mieux. Avec : Gérard Ostermann, cardiologue, professeur de thérapeutique-médecine interne. Thierry Janssen, médecin, ancien chirurgien urologue, psychothérapeute. Isabelle Mansuy, docteure en biologie moléculaire, professeure en épigénétique. Jacques Besson, psychiatre, professeur honoraire de psychiatrie. Préface du Pr Patrice Queneau, membre de l’Académie nationale de médecine.

Se donner toutes les chances

Vous venez d’accoucher et vous ne savez plus comment vous vous appelez ? Vous êtes fatiguée et exaltée, heureuse et désespérée, et vous changez d’humeur toutes les deux minutes. Rassurez-vous, tout est normal ! Souvent tabou, le post-partum est généralement décrit comme une période horrible, ou à l’inverse, une période enchantée. Seulement, la réalité se situe au milieu de ces deux extrêmes. Elle parle de la relation à l’enfant qui arrive, de ses premiers sourires, des forces insoupçonnées que l’on se découvre mais aussi d’hémorroïdes, d’émotions qui s’entrechoquent et d’un corps que l’on ne reconnaît pas toujours. Fruit de la collaboration entre une sage-femme et une journaliste fille de sage-femme, cet ouvrage propose de raconter le post-partum en appelant un chat un chat ! Son but est de vous informer et de vous apporter des conseils réalistes pour vous accompagner au mieux dans cette période qui, quand on creuse bien, a tout d’une vie rêvée... ou presque !

La vie rêvée du post-partum

What do you do when you wake up in your mid-forties and realize you've been living a lie your whole life? Do you tell? Or do you keep it to yourself? Laura James found out that she was autistic as an adult, after she had forged a career for herself, married twice and raised four children. Odd Girl Out tracks the year of Laura's life after she receives a definitive diagnosis from her doctor, as she learns that 'different' doesn't need to mean 'less' and how there is a place for all of us, and it's never too late to find it. Laura draws on her professional and personal experiences and reflects on her life in the light of her diagnosis, which for her explains some of her differences; why, as a child, she felt happier spinning in circles than standing still and why she has always found it difficult to work in places with a lot of ambient noise. Although this is a personal story, the book has a wider focus too, exploring reasons for the lower rate of diagnosed autism in women and a wide range of topics including eating disorders and autism, marriage and motherhood. The memoir, Odd Girl Out, gives a timely account from a woman negotiating the autistic spectrum, from a poignant and personal perspective.

Odd Girl Out

New York Times Bestseller A Reading Pick for Barack Obama, Bill Gates, and Mark Zuckerberg From a renowned historian comes a groundbreaking narrative of humanity’s creation and evolution—a #1 international bestseller—that explores the ways in which biology and history have defined us and enhanced our understanding of what it means to be “human.” One hundred thousand years ago, at least six different species of humans inhabited Earth. Yet today there is only one—homo sapiens. What happened to the others? And what may happen to us? Most books about the history of humanity pursue either a historical or a biological approach, but Dr. Yuval Noah Harari breaks the mold with this highly original book that begins about 70,000 years ago with the appearance of modern cognition. From examining the role evolving humans have played in the global ecosystem to charting the rise of empires, Sapiens integrates history and science to reconsider accepted narratives, connect past developments with contemporary concerns, and examine specific events within the context of larger ideas. Dr. Harari also compels us to look ahead, because over the last few decades humans have begun to bend laws of natural selection that have governed life for the past four billion years. We are acquiring the ability to design not only the world around us, but also ourselves. Where is this leading us, and what do we want to become? Featuring 27 photographs, 6 maps, and 25 illustrations/diagrams, this provocative and insightful work is sure to spark debate and is essential reading for aficionados of Jared Diamond, James Gleick, Matt Ridley, Robert Wright, and Sharon Moalem.

« Voir un lien entre la pollution de l’air, la biodiversité et la covid-19 relève du surréalisme, pas de la science ! », affirmait Luc Ferry en mars 2020, accusant les écologistes de « récupération politique ». Voilà un philosophe bien mal informé. Car, depuis les années 2000, des centaines de scientifiques tirent la sonnette d’alarme : les activités humaines, en précipitant l’effondrement de la biodiversité, ont créé les conditions d’une « épidémie de pandémies ». C’est ce que montre cet essai, mobilisant de nombreux travaux et des entretiens inédits avec plus de soixante chercheurs du monde entier. En apportant enfin une vision d’ensemble, accessible à tous, Marie-Monique Robin contribue à dissiper le grand aveuglement collectif qui empêchait d’agir. Le constat est sans appel : la destruction des écosystèmes par la déforestation, l’urbanisation, l’agriculture industrielle et la globalisation économique menace directement la santé planétaire. Cette destruction est à l’origine des « zoonoses », transmises par des animaux aux humains : d’Ébola à la covid-19, elles font partie des « nouvelles maladies émergentes » qui se multiplient, par des mécanismes clairement expliqués dans ce livre. Où on verra aussi comment, si rien n’est fait, d’autres pandémies, pires encore, suivront. Et pourquoi, plutôt que la course vaine aux vaccins ou le confinement chronique de la population, le seul antidote est la préservation de la biodiversité, impliquant d’en finir avec l’emprise délétère du modèle économique dominant sur les écosystèmes.

La Fabrique des pandémies

Du Big Bang à nos jours, notre Terre n’a cessé de se transformer sous les effets des mouvements tectoniques, des variations climatiques, de l’activité du Soleil ou encore des éruptions volcaniques. Comment ces changements ont-ils affecté l’histoire humaine ? Comment notre espèce s’est-elle adaptée à un environnement profondément modifié par les glaciations ou les périodes de réchauffement ? Pour répondre à ces interrogations, Peter Frankopan s’est engagé dans une entreprise majeure et inédite : croiser notre histoire, nos innovations, nos empires, nos périodes de stabilité ou de bouleversements avec l’histoire du climat telle que les découvertes scientifiques les plus récentes peuvent l’établir. À l’heure où, face au défi climatique, notre futur semble plus incertain que jamais, Peter Frankopan nous convie à mieux apprendre de notre passé et transforme profondément notre manière de penser l’histoire du monde.

Les Métamorphoses de la terre : l'humanité et la nature, une nouvelle histoire du monde

THE UNIVERSAL ONE a été publié à l'origine en 1927 et distribué aux meilleurs scientifiques du pays. Il est réédité en cette période cruciale dans le seul but de diffuser à nouveau de nouvelles connaissances scientifiques vitales pour ce nouvel âge - de nouvelle compréhension. Aujourd'hui, le monde entier est dans un état de chaos, luttant contre les forces de la cupidité, de l'envie, de la jalousie et de la peur. La dysharmonie est omniprésente. Toutes nos relations humaines sont violemment bouleversées. La civilisation est à l'envers. La science est utilisée pour détruire et non pour construire. Nous parlons de la paix dans le monde, mais ceux qui doivent planifier le nouveau monde ne connaissent pas la réponse, la solution. La connaissance actuelle de la relation de l'homme à la nature et de la loi naturelle qui contrôle ses relations humaines est, jusqu'à présent, inadéquate pour répondre à la situation. L'homme est encore trop proche de sa jungle pour connaître la loi qui régit inexorablement toutes ses actions et celles de la nature ou pour comprendre qu'il doit obéir à la nature ou s'autodétruire. Encore dominé par les habitudes de la jungle, il règle ses relations humaines par les méthodes de la jungle. Les guerres et le chaos mondial continueront jusqu'à ce qu'il acquière de nouvelles connaissances applicables au nouveau cycle à venir de l'évolution de l'homme. Quelles sont ces nouvelles connaissances ? Une cosmogonie cohérente est cruellement nécessaire pour ce jour naissant de l'exaltation de l'homme qui est à venir. Walter Russell a consacré sept années entières à la rédaction de ce livre. Lorsqu'il a été publié pour la première fois en 1927, il a suscité plus de condamnation que de faveur de la part d'un monde qui n'était pas alors aussi prêt à l'accueillir qu'aujourd'hui. Le livre mélangeait science et métaphysique d'une manière qui annulait son impression sur les physiciens. Peu à peu, cependant, nombre de ses affirmations alors radicales ont été vérifiées par certains des plus grands scientifiques du monde et lui ont valu de nombreux adeptes. Le physicien établit une ligne de démarcation nette entre les choses qu'il peut, d'une certaine manière, détecter par l'évidence de ses sens et les choses qui se trouvent au-delà de cette évidence. Il n'est pas question de nier l'existence d'un "quelque chose" au-delà de la portée de ses sens et de ses instruments sensoriels, mais ce qui peut s'y trouver est conjectural et, par conséquent, inadmissible en tant que données scientifiques de nature fiable. En d'autres termes, les preuves matérielles qui se situent dans les limites étroites de la portée des sens de l'homme sont les seules preuves admissibles pour la science. Mais qu'en est-il de ce vaste domaine qui ne répond pas à nos corps et à nos instruments sensoriels ? Au cours des âges, quelques rares personnes ont été autorisées à couper les sens qui relient la matière à sa source motivée dans la conscience de l'esprit universel. Ces quelques personnes ont pris conscience du cosmos et ont essayé de faire connaître au monde sa simplicité.

En bonus exclusif, un entretien avec l'auteur. La dernière expédition de Mike Horn, Pole2Pole, consistait en une traversée du pôle Nord au pôle Sud, sans véhicule motorisé, en ski, en kayak et à bord de son voilier brise-glace. Cette aventure, achevée le 30 décembre 2019, est la plus extrême qu'il ait accomplie. Dans un récit palpitant, revenant sur cette odyssée entre les deux points les plus opposés de notre globe, il va une nouvelle fois comprendre que l'homme est bien minuscule face à la nature et à ses dangers, mais que pour rien au monde il ne renoncera à les affronter.

The Encyclopedia of Aerodynamics was written for pilots at all levels from private pilot to airline pilot, military pilots and students of aerodynamics as a complete reference manual to aerodynamic terminology. General aerodynamic text books for pilots are relatively limited in their scope while aerodynamic text books for engineering students involve complex calculus. The references in this book, The Encyclopedia of Aerodynamics, are clearly described and only basic algebra is used in a few references but is completely devoid of any calculus - an advantage to many readers. Over 1400 references are included with alternative terms used where appropriate and cross-referenced throughout. The text is illustrated with 178 photographs and 96 diagrams. The Encyclopedia of Aerodynamics is an ideal aerodynamic reference manual for any pilot’s bookshelf.

What’s the question every business should be asking itself? According to Jeff Jarvis, it’s WHAT WOULD GOOGLE DO? If you’re not thinking or acting like Google – the fastest-growing company in the history of the world – then you’re not going to survive, let alone prosper, in the Internet age. An indispensable manual for survival and success that asks the most important question today’s leaders, in any industry, can ask themselves: What would Google do? To demonstrate how to emulate Google, Jarvis lays out his laws of what he calls “the new Google century,” including such insights as: Think Distributed Become a Platform Join the Post-Scarcity, Open-Source, Gift Economy The Middleman Has Died Your Worst Customers Are Your Best Friends and Your Best Customers Are Your Partners Do What You Do Best and Link to the Rest Get Out of the Way Make Mistakes Well … and More He applies these principles not just to emerging technologies and the Internet, but to other industries–telecommunications, airlines, television, government, healthcare, education, journalism, and yes, book publishing–showing ultimately what the world would look like if Google ran it. The result is an astonishing, mind-opening book that will change the way readers ask questions and solve problems.

What Would Google Do?

Since it was developed, Newton‘s law of gravitation and many other laws of physics cannot be derived from one grand underlying principle. Deriving Newton‘s law of gravitation or Einstein general relativity theory, would mean that gravity emerges from something else and that would mean that the only known Newton‘s law of universal gravity is no longer a fundamental law of physics. Although this might be true, I believe that everything must have an origin. I believe that there is a fundamental universal physical law from which all other known physical laws can be deduced. I also believe that the laws of physics are not picked at random but there exists an underlying principle from which they can be derived with ease. Failure for some minds to grasp this principle doesn‘t mean that it doesn‘t exist. Because I was used to deriving and proving formulae in pure math, I didn‘t like the way the laws of physics were presented to me without proof. A physics tutor would just write down a set of physical laws without proof. There are so many physics books which still do the same thing. Being curious and passionate to finding out how I could derive all the laws of physics from one single equation is proof that this book would have never existed in the first place if had not discovered the hidden principle that underlies all physics.

The present book is intended, as far as possible, to give an exact insight into the theory of Relativity to those readers who, from a general scientific and philosophical point of view, are interested in the theory, but who are not conversant with the mathematical apparatus of theoretical physics. The work presumes a standard of education corresponding to that of a university matriculation examination, and, despite the shortness of the book, a fair amount of patience and force of will on the part of the reader. The author has spared himself no pains in his endeavor to present the main ideas in the simplest and most intelligible form, and on the whole, in the sequence and connection in which they actually originated. In the interest of clearness, it appeared to me inevitable that I should repeat myself frequently, without paying the slightest attention to the elegance of the presentation. I adhered scrupulously to the precept of that brilliant theoretical physicist L. Boltzmann, according to whom matters of elegance ought to be left to the tailor and to the cobbler. I make no pretence of having withheld from the reader difficulties which are inherent to the subject. On the other hand, I have purposely treated the empirical physical foundations of the theory in a “step-motherly” fashion, so that readers unfamiliar with physics may not feel like the wanderer who was unable to see the forest for the trees. May the book bring someone a few happy hours of suggestive thought! December, 1916 A. EINSTEIN

Can Alibaba maintain its 80% market share? Jack Ma is a man who does not see failure as an option, not a final one anyway. Ma has been through more failure than success in his life, we just don't hear much about it because his success has been so big! Ma's education through failure more than traditional channels has shaped a man that is globally savvy, compassionate and fiercely passionate about entrepreneurship. He recently shared with Charlie Rose, 'I failed a key primary school test 2 times, I failed the middle school test 3 times, I failed the college entrance exam 2 times and when I graduated, I was rejected for most jobs I applied for out of college.' (Ma was one of 5 applicants to the police force and the only one to be rejected. Then there is the application as one of 24 applicants to be a KFC manager and also be rejected. 'I applied for Harvard ten times, got rejected ten times and I told myself that ‘Someday I should go teach there.' Even in the early success of Alibaba Ma was told by Silicon Valley venture capitalists that his business model was wholly unprofitable and he was sent back to China unfunded. In the face of all this adversity Ma did not give up, give in or blame, he just continued to try.

Galileo Galilei had seriously considered the priesthood as a young man, at his father's urging he instead enrolled at the University of Pisa for a medical degree. In 1581, when he was studying medicine, he noticed a swinging chandelier, which air currents shifted about to swing in larger and smaller arcs. It seemed, by comparison with his heartbeat, that the chandelier took the same amount of time to swing back and forth, no matter how far it was swinging. When he returned home, he set up two pendulums of equal length and swung one with a large sweep and the other with a small sweep and found that they kept time together. It was not until Christiaan Huygens almost one hundred years later, however, that the tautochrone nature of a swinging pendulum was used to create an accurate timepiece.To this point, he had deliberately been kept away from mathematics (since a physician earned so much more than a mathematician), but upon accidentally attending a lecture on geometry, he talked his reluctant father into letting him study mathematics and natural philosophy instead. He created a thermoscope (forerunner of the thermometer) and in 1586 published a small book on the design of a hydrostatic balance he had invented (which first brought him to the attention of the scholarly world). Galileo also studied disegno, a term encompassing fine art, and in 1588 attained an instructor position in the Accademia delle Arti del Disegno in Florence, teaching perspective and chiaroscuro. Being inspired by the artistic tradition of the city and the works of the Renaissance artists, Galileo acquired an aesthetic mentality. While a young teacher at the Accademia, he began a lifelong friendship with the Florentine painter Cigoli, who included Galileo's lunar observations in one of his paintings. Galileo Galilei’s Sidereus Nuncius is arguably the most dramatic scientific book ever published. It announced new and unexpected phenomena in the heavens, “unheard of through the ages.

Eating disorders belong to the leading causes of lost life years in young adult women. Current behavioral treatments are efficacious but reach only part of the affected women. The treatment presented in this book differs from many prior treatment approaches in that it assumes that disturbed eating behavior is a consequence of difficulties in emotion regulation. It focuses on imparting skills that improve self-management, foster mindful and healthy eating behavior, emotion regulation, social skills and distress tolerance. "Treatment of Eating Disorders by Emotion Regulation" has a modular structure and is designed for use as the basis for inpatient and outpatient treatment and besides that has a self-help manual. It contains a plenty of psychoeducational materials, work sheets, case vignettes and background information for therapists.

Since birth, you've wanted to discover things. You started out by putting every available object in your mouth. Later you began asking the grownups all those "why" questions. None of this makes you unique — humans are naturally curious animals. What's unusual is that you've decided to take a physics course. There are easier ways to satisfy a science requirement, so evidently, you're one of those uncommon people who has retained the habit of curiosity into adulthood, and you're willing to tackle a subject that requires sustained intellectual effort.

Fire and brimstone, bellowing prophets, and a good dose of old-fashioned sermonizing — these are the images the Bible brings to mind. But this assortment of sacred writings, in particular the Old Testament, is more than a collection of colorful allegories or miracles-and-morals mythology. Though written in the first millennium BCE, these holy writings are a nostalgic recounting of a lost 'super-religious' mentality that characterized the Bronze Age. The Psychology of the Bible explores how the Old Testament provides perspective into the tumultuous transition from an earlier mentality to a new paradigm of interiorized psychology and introspective religiosity that came to characterize the first millennium BCE. By examining the Old Testament’s historical background and theopolitical context, utilizing linguistic analysis, and applying systems and communication theory, this book interprets biblical passages through a new lens. It analyzes divine voices, visions, and appearances of heavenly messengers — angel and prophets — as neurocultural phenomena and explains why they were so common. This book also answers why definitions of God changed so radically, illuminates the divinatory role of idols and other oracular aids (e.g. the Ark of the Covenant), provides a framework for appreciating why ‘wisdom literature’ became so significant, and clarifies the linkages among music, poetry, and inspiration.

'10 Short Lessons in Time Travel lucidly sums up the essential parts of this fascinating subject.' John Gribbin ________________________ In Ten Short Lessons in Time Travel, Brian Clegg takes us on a fascinating and up-to-date tour of the workings of the universe that suggest the possibility of journeying back and forth through time. Einstein’s special theory of relativity told us that time travel to the future was possible, and later his general theory of relativity showed us that loops in spacetime could exist, meaning that we might be able to bend time backwards, too. But what are the practicalities of making time travel possible? What do we still need to know? How do we deal with paradoxical twists in time – and could quantum physics hold the answer? From the imagination of novelists to current research, 10 Short Lessons in Time Travel is a grand tour of the essential lessons in this game-changing area of physics. About the series: The Pocket Einstein series is a collection of essential pocket-sized guides for anyone looking to understand a little more about some of the most important and fascinating areas of science in the twenty-first century. Broken down into ten simple lessons and written by leading experts in their field, discover the ten most important takeaways from those areas of science you’ve always wanted to know more about.

"I was tired of feeling this way. I was tired of everything, and I just wanted it to end . . . What would happen if I lit the entire place on fire? What if I just stayed perfectly still and did nothing?" Kicking ASSpergers is the triumphant memoir of one man's journey with autism and his quest for happiness and self empowerment despite the many challenges life throws at him. Detailing his struggles with acute anxiety, depression, OCD, psychosis, suicidal ideation, as well as social stigma and medical bias, Jeremy Tolmie moves through his childhood, from the moment he was adopted by loving parents, through brutal school years being bullied and teased, and into adulthood, where he attempts to hold down a job, attend college, and live semi independently. Over time, Jeremy starts to alienate the people in his life with his erratic and dangerous behaviour, and finds himself in and out of various living situations, including psych wards. When he meets Dave Ray, a home share provider, Jeremy starts to learn how to "trust the process" and how not to let autism rule his life. Written with humour, honesty, and compassion, Kicking ASSperger's breaks down stigma and dismantles myths and assumptions about autism. This unique voice tells an inspirational story of friendship, trust, and perseverance in the face of adversity.

Data is everywhere. There is no way to stop, deny or avoid it. Big Data is the next economic revolution. After the triumphant success of the Internet, the capabilities of managers to use the endless and steadily increasing amount of data will split companies into those who know what they do, and those who just guess. There will only be winners or losers. Managers need to understand that we are on the verge of a new economic era. The more they listen and learn, the higher the chance to win the data race. Why is Big Data so important? Big Data can help companies to increase their revenues, improve their profit margins, reduce risks and cut costs. Intelligent use of data supports customer acquisition, allows for higher prices, minimizes the risk of unprofitable investments, improves profit margins, supports the direct distribution channels, and helps to bypass expansive third-party vendors. It also generates customer loyalty and eventually helps to reduce technology, administration and payroll costs. There are manifold reasons to take a deeper look into Big Data. In medieval times, merchants in the Mediterranean accumulated extreme wealth by trading in spices such as salt. Nowadays, the prosperity of a company strongly correlates with its ability to manage and use customer data.

This elaborately illustrated book takes a fresh look at alveolar bone reconstruction, positing that the vitality of the gingiva-alveolus-implant complex is more important than simple implant longevity. With the use of osteoperiosteal flaps, the surgeon manipulates available bone to recover what is missing in a very specific way: endosteally.  This relatively closed wound approach seems to spontaneously activate the epigenetic signal within the gingivoalveolar complex, and the augmentation develops in a manner analogous to primordial growth. Soft tissue generally follows suit, and implant therapy can commence, creating a functional gingiva-alveolus-implant matrix. Once mastered, bone flaps can almost entirely eliminate the need for block grafting or guided bone regeneration. The culmination of many years of clinical research, this volume presents procedures for various osteoperiosteal flaps. It is intended for the private practitioner who must use techniques that work consistently, minimize morbidity, and are simple and relatively quick to perform. The osteoperiosteal flap, in its various permutations, fulfills these criteria beautifully.

"Nearly forty years ago, Dr. Peter Silverstone was a young MD who took up a new position in psychopharmacology research at Oxford University. Since then, the field has bloomed into a spectrum of possibilities that include the use of psychedelics as a treatment for depression, addiction, PTSD, grief, and anxiety. The Promise of Psychedelics is for you—if you or someone you know has not received successful treatment despite trying several mental-health therapy programs and medication. You are not alone: one in five adults suffer mental-health issues that impact their functioning. Psychedelics such as psilocybin, ketamine, MDMA, cannabinoids, and LSD can cause profound, intense changes—not only in what we experience but how we think, how we feel, and what we do. Dr. Silverstone avoids scientific language whenever possible, so you won’t feel overwhelmed. You’ll be introduced to the most recent advances in our understanding of psychedelics: what they are, how they work, what the risks are, and which ones will transform mental-health treatment for millions of patients. You’ll gain an understanding of the complexity of the regulatory approval process and why it takes so long for some of these psychedelics to become legal for therapeutic use. You’ll walk away from The Promise of Psychedelics with a big dose of hope if you’ll pardon the pun. The good news is that we’re on the cusp of a revolution in mental health—one offering hope that many just might soon see the end of mental illness."

Nicolas Joly is responsible for producing some of the finest and most highly esteemed wines of France at his CoulÉe de Serrant vineyard. Practising the biodynamic method of agriculture - sometimes referred to as 'premium organic' - he is at the forefront of a movement to return to the concept of terroir, as full expression and embodiment of a particular grape-growing locality, or appelation. Today even expensive wines, made under strictly regulated controls and standards, are tainted by the use of pesticides and fertilizers, and manipulated in the cellar through the use of osmosis and the additions of aromatic yeasts and enzymes. To counter such trends, a new 'Charter of Quality', run by organic and biodynamic viticulturists, guarantees that the appelation comes to full, authentic expression. To aid this process, biodynamic winegrowers like Joly use special planting methods and preparations that enhance and invigorate the soil, bringing it into harmony with the forces of sun, moon and cosmos to embed the vine in a rich, living context.

Who is 'Mad'? Who is Not? And Who Decides? In this fascinating new exploration of mental illness, Professor Brendan Kelly examines 'madness' in history and how we have responded to it over the centuries. We travel from the psychiatric institutions of modern India to scientific studies of the brain in Victorian England. We discover the beginnings of formal asylum care and witness the experimental therapies of the cavernous psychiatric hospitals of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries in Ireland, England, Belgium, Italy, Germany and the United States. Covering lobotomy and the Nazis' Aktion T4 campaign, as well as Freud, psychoanalysis, cognitive behavioural therapy and neuroscience, In Search of Madness examines the shift in recent times from 'psychobabble' to 'neurobabble'. This is an all encompassing history of one of the most basic fears to haunt the human psyche – madness – and it concludes with a passionate manifesto for change: four proposals to make mental health services more effective, accessible and just.
