Comprendre] la malvoyance chez l'adulte: la comprendre, la vivre mieux
Par Caroline Kovarski. 2007
"La personne malvoyante est celle dont la vision est mauvaise, handicap suffisamment marqué pour la gêner dans sa vie relationnelle…
et professionnelle. Néanmoins, même si sa vision est plus ou moins gravement déficitaire, elle voit ou perçoit encore. Cette réduction de la vision est cependant lourde de conséquences, tant sur le plan psychologique que celui de la réduction de l'autonomie. Fatalité subie, la malvoyance est aujourd'hui une déficience à laquelle peuvent être apportées certaines assistances. Si la survenue de la maladie ne peut être évitée, une rééducation spécifique, des aides techniques et humaines, des outils optiques adaptés, des prises en charge appropriées... sont autant de propositions qui peuvent désormais aider la personne malvoyante à utiliser le meilleur de son potentiel visuel. Toutes ces informations sont ici regroupées, synthétisées, clarifiées pour répondre aux besoins et questions des personnes malvoyantes, de leur entourage et des "professionnels de santé". Motivée par l'ambition du projet, l'équipe de spécialistes internationaux qui a rédigé cet ouvrage a souhaité transmettre toutes ses connaissances et savoir-faire pour donner à la personne malvoyante la possibilité de vivre au mieux avec elle-même, et aux autres acteurs de saisir le handicap que la malvoyance représente." -- 4e de couvA house on stilts: mothering in the age of opioid addiction - a memoir

"Combining the latest developments and research discoveries, board-certified gastroenterologist and medical host on CNN and Fox News, Dr. Roshini Raj…
shows the ways in which the microbiome impacts overall well-being, and helps readers reset their biological clocks by improving their gut health. With one in four Americans suffering from digestive health issues every day, gut health has become an increasingly important part of wellness. With the human body, so many issues can be improved upon, or cured, by balancing the microbiome. But the microbiome--a community of bacteria, viruses, and yeasts that dwell in the body--has long been something that the average person can find baffling--and maybe a little bit gross. By offering simple and straightforward answers to questions like what one should be eating, what probiotics are, which vitamins and medicines really work, Dr. Raj demystifies the gut. She uses the idea of a home renovation to show how different organs and parts of the body can be "renovated" in order to optimize the microbiome. After all, balancing one's microbiome improves digestive health, brain function, emotional stability, the body's response to inflammation, immunity, and lessens premature aging. Melding the latest developments and discoveries in microbiome research, along with Dr. Raj's practical tips developed from her years of clinical experience, Gut Renovation shows readers how to turn back the biological clock and revamp the way they live forever." -- Provided by publisherWhen the words suddenly stopped: finding my voice again after a massive stroke

The stolen year: how COVID changed children's lives, and where we go now
Par Anya Kamenetz. 2022
An NPR education reporter shows how the pandemic disrupted children's lives and how our country has nearly always failed to…
put our children first. The onset of COVID broke a 150-year social contract between America and its children. Tens of millions of students lost what little support they had from the government not just school but food, heat, and physical and emotional safety. The cost was enormous. But this crisis began much earlier than 2020. In The Stolen Year, Anya Kamenetz exposes a long-running indifference to the plight of children and families in American life and calls for a reckoning. She follows families across the country as they live through the pandemic, facing loss and resilience: a boy with autism in San Francisco who gains a foster brother and a Hispanic family in Texas that loses a member to COVID, and finds solace when they need it most. Kamenetz also recounts the history that brought us to this point: how we thrust children and caregivers into poverty, how we over-police families of color, how we rely on mothers instead of infrastructure. And how our government, in failing to support our children through this tumultuous time, has stolen years of their lives.
