Proponents of the theory hold that Turkish is part of the Altaic family, and that Turkish accordingly exists in parallel with Mongolic and Tungusic-Manchu. Whatever the truth of this theory, Gerard Clauson's erudite and vigorously expressed views, based as they were on a remarkable knowledge of the lexicon of the Altaic languages and his outstanding work in the field of Turkish lexicography, continues to com |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
La mondialisation est aujourd'hui une réalité bien installée, qui emporte hommes, sociétés et cultures. Mais avec quelles conséquences au juste pour la diversité culturelle ? Pour certains, la mondialisation conduirait à l'homogénéisation, à l'effacement des identités locales sous le poids de modèles imposés par les pays riches et par l'essor des moyens de communication. Pour d'autres, notre époque hypermoderne serait caractérisée par la fragmentation et la diversification des formes d'expression qui se développent par métissage, réaffirmation des cultures régionales ou réaction communautariste. Un ouvrage clair qui fait le point sur la question de la diversité culturelle, les débats et les enjeux qu'elle suscite. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
The Nature Rx movement is changing campus life. Offering alternative ways to deal with the stress that students are under, these programs are redefining how to provide students with the best possible environment in which to be healthy, productive members of the academic community. In Nature Rx, Donald A. Rakow and Gregory T. Eells summarize the value of nature prescription programs designed to encourage college students to spend time in nature and to develop a greater appreciation for the natural world. Because these programs are relatively new, there are many lessons for practitioners to learn; but clinical studies demonstrate that students who regularly spend time in nature have reduced stress and anxiety levels and improved mood and outlook. In addition to the latest research, the authors present a step-by-step formula for constructing, sustaining, and evaluating Nature Rx programs, and they profile four such programs at American colleges. The practical guidance in Nature Rx alongside the authors' vigorous argument for the benefits of these programs for both students and institutions places Rakow and Eells at the forefront of this burgeoning movement. |
