Sommario/riassunto |
|
Nature documentaries often depict animal life as a grim struggle for survival, but this visually stunning book opens our eyes to a different, more scientifically up-to-date way of looking at the animal kingdom. In more than one hundred thirty striking images, The Exultant Ark celebrates the full range of animal experience with dramatic portraits of animal pleasure ranging from the charismatic and familiar to the obscure and bizarre. These photographs, windows onto the inner lives of pleasure seekers, show two polar bears engaged in a bout of wrestling, hoary marmots taking time for a friendly chase, Japanese macaques enjoying a soak in a hot spring, a young bull elk sticking out his tongue to catch snowflakes, and many other rewarding moments. Biologist and best-selling author Jonathan Balcombe is our guide, interpreting the images within the scientific context of what is known about animal behavior. In the end, old attitudes fall away as we gain a |

heightened sense of animal individuality and of the pleasures that make life worth living for all sentient beings. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Der Rechenschaftsbericht des Kaisers Augustus war einst auf zwei Bronzepfeilern in Rom aufgestellt. Während das Original verloren ging, wurde 1555 im heutigen Ankara eine Abschrift in lateinischer und griechischer Sprache gefunden. Augustus streicht nicht nur seine |

|
außenpolitischen Erfolge heraus, er betont auch seine Fürsorge für das Volk. Stolz berichtet er von seiner Bautätigkeit, aber auch von den zahlreichen Ehrungen, die ihm widerfuhren. |
The Res Gestae Divi Augusti, a funerary inscription recounting the deeds of Augustus, was originally displayed on two bronze pillars in Rome. While the originals have been lost, a Latin and Greek copy were found in 1555 in today’s Ankara. Augustus lays stress not only on his foreign policy successes, but also emphasizes his care of the people. He proudly recounts his building accomplishments and cites the many honors bestowed upon him. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Jamais les politiques publiques françaises et britanniques n'ont été autant marquées par la question du logement qu'en ce début de XXIe siècle. L'envolée spéculative des prix immobiliers, l'accroissement des phénomènes de ségrégation et de précarisation résidentielles ainsi que la crise des « subprimes » émanant des États-Unis en 2007 ont mis en évidence les vicissitudes auxquelles sont soumis les marchés occidentaux depuis les années 1990. Face à l'inquiétude croissante des populations, il n'est guère étonnant que les gouvernements de Gordon Brown et de Nicolas Sarkozy aient manifesté leur volonté de considérer le logement comme l'une des toutes premières priorités de leur action politique. Cet ouvrage a pour objectif de mettre en parallèle les caractéristiques des crises du logement dans les deux pays et les réponses qu'y apportent les pouvoirs publics. Il regroupe une quinzaine de contributions de spécialistes du logement en France et au Royaume-Uni qui couvrent les grandes évolutions des marchés de l'immobilier depuis la seconde moitié du XXe siècle, les enjeux sociétaux et territoriaux et les nouvelles orientations politiques. Ainsi que le montrent les auteurs, le désengagement de l'État-providence, le recours à la décentralisation et aux lois du marché rendent de plus en plus improbable la mise en œuvre d'un droit au logement pour tous. |
