Download or read book Plantes m dicinales du monde written by Bernard Boullard and published by Editions Estem. This book was released on 2001 with total page 636 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A travers les siècles, l'Homme se livra au redoutable apprentissage des Propriétés Médicinales des Végétaux. Pareille entreprise lui coûta parfois la vie ou (plus heureusement !) la lui sauva ! A travers l'Histoire, l'Homme a donc eu recours à des remèdes d'origine végétale et toutes les grandes civilisations en ont fait usage. Selon les pays, sorciers, guérisseurs, curanderos, tradipraticiens, herboristes de nos contrées et, plus récemment, biochimistes végétaux savent tirer parti des " principes " actifs synthétisés par des plantes. Nombre de médicaments " modernes " doivent leurs vertus à des extraits végétaux. Sans minimiser le moins du monde le rôle considérable joué par les médicaments sortis des creusets des chimistes, force est de considérer avec attention les multiples espèces de la Flore qui permettent "encore" de se soigner ! L'auteur s'est donc fixé pour objectifs, en parcourant divers continents : de proposer un volume accessible à tout lecteur ; de donner une description assez précise des plantes considérées ; d'en inventorier les propriétés médicinales reconnues (ou seulement supposées) ; de familiariser le lecteur avec un certain nombre de composés chimiques impliqués dans ces "pouvoirs des plantes". Plus de 2 300 espèces végétales d'Afrique, d'Amérique, d'Asie ou d'Europe, sont citées au fil des pages. L'illustration est copieuse (1076 figures) et plusieurs index (Noms scientifiques de plantes ; Noms français et noms populaires locaux ; Domaines d'application thérapeutique des végétaux cités) facilitent grandement la consultation de l'ouvrage. Plantes Médicinales du Monde est destiné à tous ceux que concernent l'ethnobotanique, les pharmacopées traditionnelles (ou modernes !), l'histoire de la médecine, et donc aux anthropologues, aux historiens, aux médecins, aux pharmaciens et à toute personne curieuse des " ressources de la Nature ".

Download or read book Taking a Multisectoral One Health Approach A Tripartite Guide to Addressing Zoonotic Diseases in Countries written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2019-03-11 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2018 FAO-OIE-WHO (Tripartite) zoonoses guide, “Taking A Multisectoral, One Health Approach: A Tripartite Guide to Addressing Zoonotic Diseases in Countries” (2018 TZG) is being jointly developed to provide member countries with practical guidance on OH approaches to build national mechanisms for multisectoral coordination, communication, and collaboration to address zoonotic disease threats at the animal-human-environment interface. The 2018 TZG updates and expands on the guidance in the one previous jointly-developed, zoonoses-specific guidance document: the 2008 Tripartite “Zoonotic Diseases: A Guide to Establishing Collaboration between Animal and Human Health Sectors at the Country Level”, developed in WHO South-East Asia Region and Western Pacific Region. The 2018 TZG supports building by countries of the resilience and capacity to address emerging and endemic zoonotic diseases such as avian influenza, rabies, Ebola, and Rift Valley fever, as well as food-borne diseases and antimicrobial resistance, and to minimize their impacts on health, livelihoods, and economies. It additionally supports country efforts to implement WHO International Health Regulations (2005) and OIE international standards, to address gaps identified through external and internal health system evaluations, and to achieve targets of the Sustainable Development Goals. The 2018 TZG provides relevant country ministries and agencies with lessons learned and good practices identified from country-level experiences in taking OH approaches for preparedness, prevention, detection and response to zoonotic disease threats, and provides guidance on multisectoral communication, coordination, and collaboration. It informs on regional and country-level OH activities and relevant unisectoral and multisectoral tools available for countries to use.

Download or read book Psychiatric Power written by Michel Foucault and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2008-06-24 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Psychiatric Power, the fourth volume in the collection of his groundbreaking lectures at the Collège de France, Michel Foucault addresses and expands upon the ideas in his seminal Madness and Civilization, sketching the genealogy of psychiatry and of its characteristic form of power/knowledge. Madness and Civilization undertook the archeology of the division according to which, in Western Society, the madman found himself separated from the sane. That book ends with the medicalization of madness at the beginning of the nineteenth century. Psychiatric Power continues this discourse up to the end of the nineteenth century, and the double "depsychiatrization" of madness, now dispersed between the neurologist and the psychoanalyst. Presented in a conversational tone, Psychiatric Power brings fresh access and light to the work of one of the past century's preeminent thinkers.

Download or read book The Conseil Priv and the Parlements in the Age of Louis XIV written by Albert N. Hamscher and published by American Philosophical Society. This book was released on 1987 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This vol., while encompassing the entire reign of Louis XIV & all the parlements of the realm, has the narrow focus of investigating the impact of royal policy on the judicial authority of the parlements as revealed in their relations with the king's councils, notably the one that specialized in judicial affairs, the Conseil Prive. This is above all a study of the evolution of conciliar jurisprudence & judicial procedure, as much an exercise in what the French call "l'histoire du droit" as an opportunity to observe in a novel way the resolution of some of the most pressing political problems in the Age of Louis XIV. But the overall aim is to understand the practical consequences of royal absolutism for the kingdom's highest judicial institutions.
