Book Description
Dans la série des volumes constituant le Dictionnaire de l'Académie de médecine, celui consacré à l'Imagerie et aux rayonnements illustre l'extraordinaire transformation qu'a connue l'art de soigner dans le dernier demi-siècle. Le mot imagerie à lui seul demande une explication. Il a été introduit dans notre langue au XIIIe siècle mais il ne s'applique à la médecine que depuis peu. Dans le domaine technique, la photographie avait ouvert la voie à la découverte de Röntgen ; à la veille de la Seconde guerre mondiale, la tomographie avait déjà accru la précision de la radiographie sur film, puis l'après-guerre vit naître la scanographie ; la radiologie numérisée, l'imagerie par résonance nucléaire. L'informatique et l'électronique s'en mélèrent, et par la miniaturisation des instruments et des optiques, l'œil peut pénétrer dans l'intimité des viscères et obtenir des images en plusieurs dimensions, matérialisables et transmissibles. Les promesses de la vidéochirurgie ne sont possibles qu'à travers des images claires. Dans le domaine langagier, aucun dictionnaire de médecine antérieur à 1980 ne comporte de rubrique consacrée à l'imagerie médicale : et maintenant, elle est indispensable à la plupart des actes médicaux diagnostiques et thérapeutiques. Pour des raisons d'ordre professionnel, surtout liées à l'expérience des appareils électriques, l'usage des rayonnements s'est associé à l'imagerie à partir de Röntgen en 1895. Le dernier dictionnaire français de médecine qui se prévalait encore du nom de Littré dans de 1908, et déjà au bout de dix ans, il avait besoin de neuf termes commençant par radio, alors que l'usage hésitait encore entre Rayons Röntgen et Rayons X.

Book Description
This new, third volume of Cohen-Tannoudji's groundbreaking textbook covers advanced topics of quantum mechanics such as uncorrelated and correlated identical particles, the quantum theory of the electromagnetic field, absorption, emission and scattering of photons by atoms, and quantum entanglement. Written in a didactically unrivalled manner, the textbook explains the fundamental concepts in seven chapters which are elaborated in accompanying complements that provide more detailed discussions, examples and applications. * Completing the success story: the third and final volume of the quantum mechanics textbook written by 1997 Nobel laureate Claude Cohen-Tannoudji and his colleagues Bernard Diu and Franck Laloë * As easily comprehensible as possible: all steps of the physical background and its mathematical representation are spelled out explicitly * Comprehensive: in addition to the fundamentals themselves, the books comes with a wealth of elaborately explained examples and applications Claude Cohen-Tannoudji was a researcher at the Kastler-Brossel laboratory of the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris where he also studied and received his PhD in 1962. In 1973 he became Professor of atomic and molecular physics at the Collège des France. His main research interests were optical pumping, quantum optics and atom-photon interactions. In 1997, Claude Cohen-Tannoudji, together with Steven Chu and William D. Phillips, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for his research on laser cooling and trapping of neutral atoms. Bernard Diu was Professor at the Denis Diderot University (Paris VII). He was engaged in research at the Laboratory of Theoretical Physics and High Energy where his focus was on strong interactions physics and statistical mechanics. Franck Laloë was a researcher at the Kastler-Brossel laboratory of the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris. His first assignment was with the University of Paris VI before he was appointed to the CNRS, the French National Research Center. His research was focused on optical pumping, statistical mechanics of quantum gases, musical acoustics and the foundations of quantum mechanics.

Book Description
In order for science to advance, previous research findings must be reviewed and criticized. However, conveying criticism is particularly difficult for scientists who must, at the same time, try to maintain an impersonal stance. This co-edited collection of independent studies written by scholars from many different countries addresses the thorny issue of criticism in science through discourse analysis of written scientific texts. The research reported in this volume deals with questions such as: 1) how criticism is conveyed by various linguistic communities, such as Serbian, French, Spanish, German and English; 2) how criticism is handled in various genres, with examples drawn from book reviews, referees' reports, research articles, editorials, and review/meta-analysis papers; 3) the extent to which criticism is influenced by academic discipline, with findings from linguistics, economics, biology, business, musicology, chemistry, literary research, medicine, and physics, and 4) the impact interpersonal considerations have on the linguistic realization of criticism. The conclusions reached by these contributions have implications for both the academic world and society at large in the sense that a fuller understanding of how criticism is expressed will help in the education of future scholars and in the understanding of the social construction of knowledge.
