Sommario/riassunto

Dans l'archipel des Moluques, les îles Kei sont encore mal connues. A l'extrémité sud-ouest du groupe se trouve Tanebar-Evav, une petite île où vit une société de moins de mille personnes. Ici comme dans d'autres régions d'Indonésie, la maison est l'unité sociale fondamentale, le foyer et l'acteur de toutes les relations. Les maisons sont parties prenantes et donnantes dans tous les événements sociaux: mariages, funérailles, rituels saisonniers et occasionnels, et s'entraident en toute chose. Entourant les maisons, l'espace du village est fortement structuré, avec ses murs d'enceinte, ses portes, ses places, ses lieux marqués par les mythes des origines. Il est de plus imprégné de deux conceptions distinctes et complémentaires de la société, vue d'un côté dans ses lois internes et sa particularité - haratut -, de l'autre dans sa relation au dehors et à la loi universelle - lór. Cette double référence articule tous les niveaux de l'organisation sociale qui combine dans une structure complexe des traits relatifs à la filiation et à l'aînesse d'une part, à l'alliance asymétrique et à la relation frère-soeur de l'autre. Dans ce système, les maisons constituent les unités concrètes d'un



ordre immédiat et permanent au nom duquel se maintient une société attachée à son identité, mais animée aussi par une très ancienne et profonde relation au monde et à l'histoire.  The islands of Kei in the Moluccan archipelago are little known. This is a study of one of them - Tanebar-Evav - a small isolated island of fewer than 1000 inhabitants, situated at the south-west end of the archipelago. Cécile Barraud has carried out an intensive study of this small community, and has made a detailed analysis of its social organisation. Here, as in other parts of Indonesia, the fundamental social unit is the house, which is the agent and the focal point of all social relations. The houses are partners of exchange in all social events: marriages, funerals, seasonal rituals and others. They are…

Sommario/riassunto

This book provides a comprehensive overview of skeletal muscle structure, function, and regulation at the cellular and molecular levels. In addition, the book covers various topics, such as muscle contraction, energy metabolism, fatigue, adaptation, and plasticity. This book discusses skeletal muscle anatomy and histology and then covers muscle contraction's molecular and cellular mechanisms. Also, it includes an in-depth discussion of the sarcomere, the basic unit of muscle contraction, and the role of calcium in the process of muscle contraction. This book also explores the energy metabolism of skeletal muscle, including the role of ATP, glycogen, and fatty acids in providing energy for muscle contraction. Additionally, the book covers the mechanisms of fatigue, including peripheral and central factors contributing to muscle fatigue. Other topics covered include muscle adaptation to exercise, the molecular and cellular mechanisms of muscle hypertrophy and atrophy, and the influence of age, sex, and disease on skeletal muscle function. Overall, Skeletal Muscle Physiology: An Update to Anatomy and Function thoroughly explores the structure and function of skeletal muscle, making it an essential resource for students and professionals in exercise science, sports medicine, and physiology. The auto-summaries have been generated by a recursive clustering algorithm via the Dimensions Auto-summarizer by Digital Science handled by Subject Matter Experts and the external editor. The editor of this book selected which SN content should be auto-summarized and decided its order of appearance. Please be aware that the auto-summaries consist of original sentences, but are not representative of its original paper, since we do not show the full length of the publication. Please note that only published SN content is represented here, and that machine-generated books are still at an experimental stage.
