Book Description
In 1900, for every 1,000 babies born in the United States, 100 would die before their first birthday, often due to infectious diseases. Today, vaccines exist for many viral and bacterial diseases. The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, passed in 1986, was intended to bolster vaccine research and development through the federal coordination of vaccine initiatives and to provide relief to vaccine manufacturers facing financial burdens. The legislation also intended to address concerns about the safety of vaccines by instituting a compensation program, setting up a passive surveillance system for vaccine adverse events, and by providing information to consumers. A key component of the legislation required the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to collaborate with the Institute of Medicine to assess concerns about the safety of vaccines and potential adverse events, especially in children. Adverse Effects of Vaccines reviews the epidemiological, clinical, and biological evidence regarding adverse health events associated with specific vaccines covered by the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP), including the varicella zoster vaccine, influenza vaccines, the hepatitis B vaccine, and the human papillomavirus vaccine, among others. For each possible adverse event, the report reviews peer-reviewed primary studies, summarizes their findings, and evaluates the epidemiological, clinical, and biological evidence. It finds that while no vaccine is 100 percent safe, very few adverse events are shown to be caused by vaccines. In addition, the evidence shows that vaccines do not cause several conditions. For example, the MMR vaccine is not associated with autism or childhood diabetes. Also, the DTaP vaccine is not associated with diabetes and the influenza vaccine given as a shot does not exacerbate asthma. Adverse Effects of Vaccines will be of special interest to the National Vaccine Program Office, the VICP, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, vaccine safety researchers and manufacturers, parents, caregivers, and health professionals in the private and public sectors.

Book Description
In this book, Bachelard draws upon both his scientific training and his interest in the nonrational - which ultimately drew him toward the study of poetics - to explore the deeper meanings of the new physics. In Bachelard's view, the unpredictable behaviour of subatomic particles belies the seemingly neat, ordered, and mechanistic universe that the practical and empirical scientists of the nineteenth century thought they saw.
Book Description
À l'institut, l'après-midi du 17 octobre 2006, l'Académie française, l'Académie des sciences, le Comité national consultatif d'éthique pour les sciences de la vie et de la santé, l'Académie nationale de médecine rendaient hommage à Jean Bernard. Le matin, l'Académie nationale de médecine avait rappelé son oeuvre médicale. JB (comme on l'appelait souvent) et les leucémies, la maladie de Hodgkin, les maladies hémorragiques, les greffes de moelle : chaque fois un de ses élèves reprend la description de ces maladies, de leurs traitements et de leurs aspects psychologiques depuis les publications de Jean Bernard. Sont aussi évoqués la vie professionnelle, l'internat en 1932, la résistance, le laboratoire de l'hôpital Saint-Louis, l'enseignement, le Centre Georges Hayem et son hôpital de jour, la création et le développement de la Fondation pour la recherche médicale, les voyages, à Marseille, au Maroc, en Grèce, en Belgique, en Angleterre, en Yougoslavie et le fidèle compagnon de ces voyages en avion, Paul Valéry, dont les textes ne le quittent pas. Mais il ne s'agit pas seulement, ici, d'hommages ou de témoignages. Derrière la biographie et l'analyse des travaux se dessine l'histoire de la plus féconde période de la médecine. Simone Veil clôture la matinée. Hélène Carrère d'Encausse préface l'ensemble. Dans les dernières pages figure la liste de tous les ouvrages et des douze cents articles publiés par Jean Bernard pour qu'elle puisse susciter de nouvelles études.

Book Description
The way in which people change and represent their spiritual evolution is often determined by recurrent language structures. Through the analysis of ancient and modern stories and their words and images, this book describes the nature of conversion through explorations of the encounter with the religious message, the discomfort of spiritual uncertainty, the loss of personal and social identity, the anxiety of destabilization, the reconstitution of the self and the discovery of a new language of the soul.

Book Description
A unique review of the essential topographical anatomy of the brain from an MRI perspective, correlating high-quality anatomical plates with high-resolution MRI images. The book includes a historical review of brain mapping and an analysis of the essential reference planes used. It provides a detailed review of the sulcal and the gyral anatomy of the human cortex, guiding readers through an interpretation of the individual brain atlas provided by high-resolution MRI. The relationship between brain structure and function is approached in a topographical fashion with an analysis of the necessary imaging methodology and displayed anatomy. An extensive coronal atlas rounds off the book.
