Depuis les attentats du 11 septembre 2001, la violence n'a plus pour seul témoin le protagoniste présent au moment des faits. Elle a désormais pour contemporaine une société de lecteurs, de spectateurs, de joueurs et d'internautes. Cet ouvrage souhaite précisément interroger l'apport des différentes pratiques médiatiques dans le processus de transmission de la violence et témoigner de la constante transfiguration de ses contours émotionnels, dont les fictions culturelles, sociales ou politiques tirent parfois profit.
Written and edited by a team of experts in the field, this exciting new volume presents the cutting-edge techniques, latest trends, and state-of-the-art practical applications in linear and nonlinear system modeling. Mathematical modeling of control systems is, essentially, extracting the essence of practical problems into systematic mathematical language. In system modeling, mathematical expression deals with modeling and its applications. It is characterized that how a modeling competency can be categorized and its activity can contribute to building up these competencies. Mathematical modeling of a practical system is an attractive field of research and an advanced subject with a variety of applications. The main objective of mathematical modeling is to predict the behavior of the system under different operating conditions and to design and implement efficient control strategies to achieve the desired performance. A considerable effort has been directed to the development of models, which must be understandable and easy to analyze. It is a very difficult task to develop mathematical modeling of complicated practical systems considering all its possible high-level non-linearity and cross couple dynamics. Although mathematical modeling of nonlinear systems sounds quite interesting, it is difficult to formulate the general solution to analyze and synthesize nonlinear dynamical systems. Most of the natural processes are nonlinear, having very high computational complexity of several numerical issues. It is impossible to create any general solution or individual procedure to develop exact modeling of a non-linear system, which is often improper and too complex for engineering practices. Therefore, some series of approximation procedures are used, in order to get some necessary knowledge about the nonlinear system dynamics. There are several complicated mathematical approaches for solving these types of problems, such as functional analysis, differential geometry or the theory of nonlinear differential equations.

Diaries celebrating a dog's joy at owning a human, by the most famous dog in Britain.
Buster has written these diaries himself - whenever he could remember where he hid the manuscript in his garden. In it he lays bear the truth of how The Man has held Buster back, pretending to protect fur and feathers. Buster's last book was an instant bestseller and, outrageously, The Man took all the credit. To add insult to injury, there were no extra biscuits. Worse, The Man forced Buster to eat low-fat ones, while he himself continued to eat lots of chocolate ginger nuts.
Despite The Man's best efforts, Buster still gets into lots of scrapes, and, although his sight and hearing are failing somewhat, he still wants to 'go courting' - especially in springtime. Buster remains unaware of what happened that day at the vet's, and no one will explain it to him, but they continue to allude to something.
On a visit to Ireland a gentleman tapped his nose and said to The Man, 'You can't fool me. I've worked it out. You wrote the book.' Buster was so upset by this vile calumny that he wanted to give the gentleman a good nip. Then he remembered the words of someone called Robert Kennedy who The Man goes on about: 'Don't get angry. Get even.' And he has. And this time it's personal.
As Buster says, 'No more Mr Nice Dog.
Destinée aux habitants du Nunavik, aux touristes du Grand Nord et aux botanistes amateurs et professionnels, cette nouvelle édition du guide trilingue (français, anglais et inuktitut) remplace l'Atlas des plantes des villages du Nunavik. Elle présente plus de 400 végétaux et précise leur répartition autour des villages et dans les parcs du Nunavik, ainsi que dans certaines régions du Québec, dont le Parc de la Gaspésie qui, sur ses hauts sommets, abrite de nombreuses espèces alpines également présentes dans l'Arctique québécois.
La section sur l'usage des plantes par les Inuits a été considérablement augmentée.
Dans le livre Marina (2019), Pauline Le Roy nous conduit à travers son cheminement de poète et peintre où elle aborde avec talent les sujets de la nature, la quête du bonheur et le destin de l'artiste - femme. Sa voix poétique est constituée d'imagination surréaliste. Sa demeure est le bois et ses images correspondent au destin de ce qui a été mais qui n'est plus. Dans ses poèmes, il y a un désir d'amour cosmique et de rêve universel où l'art continue à produire des questions essentielles.
This book initiates fresh pedagogic thinking on the nature of intelligence and human potentiality in the midst of a rising panic over so-called artificial intelligence. At the rate of current advancement, entire social and cultural landscapes including education and work are going to change in unprecedented ways in the near future. In light of these developments, the author sets out to critically assess the role of education in creating the capacity to distinguish between machinic “intelligence” and organic intelligence, thus helping us move from passive acceptance to active becoming.
This book concentrates on the changing patterns of work and global social order as a result of COVID-19. It scrutinizes these changes in order to point out the possible reasons for these changes following COVID-19. It sheds light on the differences between the condition of underdeveloped and developed countries, focusing on how they struggle to find ways of coping. The pandemic has changed the global social order. It has an impact on every aspect of life around the globe, from individual relationships to institutional operations and international collaborations. Societies are endeavoring to protect themselves despite severe restrictions, while the pandemic continues to upset family relations and overturn governance. COVID-19 has made it clearer than ever before that where many strains on the social sector occur, the current global system, with its interconnectedness and vulnerabilities, is under threat. Due to the changing patterns of economic and societal elements caused by COVID-19, further research is urgently needed to analyze these changing trends.
The book portrays what work and the global social order will look like in the future. It is essential reading for anyone interested in these changes and the pst-COVID-19 reality.
