“…¿No habrá llegado la hora de aprender a jugar otro tipo de juegos, como el que podríamos describir, como "jugar a ser otro" (como lo hacen, por lo demás, espontáneamente los niños), jugar a ponerse en el lugar del otro, siendo este "otro" uno que puede otro ser humano, animal, planta o mineral?…”

“…An IARC Monographs Working Group reviewed evidence from cancer studies in humans (available mainly for cobalt and antimony), cancer bioassays in experimental animals, and mechanistic studies to assess the carcinogenic hazard to humans of exposure to these agents and concluded that: - Cobalt metal (without tungsten carbide or other metal alloys), soluble cobalt(II) salts, and trivalent antimony are probably carcinogenic to humans (Group 2A); - Cobalt(II) oxide and weapons-grade tungsten (with nickel and cobalt) alloy are possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B); - Cobalt(II,III) oxide, cobalt(II) sulfide, other cobalt(II) compounds, and pentavalent antimony were each evaluated as not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans (Group 3)…”

“…Si bien las fantasías bélico-cientificistas de este autor siguen siendo conocidas, no lo es aquél ensayo sobre la historia, en el que imbuido de un evolucionismo decimonónico venía a negar que, a fin de cuentas, el hombre significara una novedad respecto al mundo animal, y que a su vez Cristo añadiera algo original respecto a lo dicho por otros tantos hombres. …”

“…Tras caracterizar las tendencias del conocimiento biológico, delimita las correspondencias entre las estructuras del conocimiento en general y las de la vida; más adelante, analiza los niveles de comportamiento, tomando muy en cuenta los trabajos de la nuevapsicología animal y comparándolos con los de psicología del niño. …”

“…Les spécialistes réunis dans le présent ouvrage visent à réparer cette lacune en présentant et confrontant, pour la première fois, les principaux supports français et japonais d’enseignement par l’image, leurs formes et leurs usages. L’hypothèse qui anime cette entreprise est que nos deux pays, où l’enfant constitue depuis des siècles un centre d’intérêt important pour la famille et pour la société, ont hérité de conceptions différentes de l’image, issues de leur système d’écriture : alors que dans la culture alphabétique, texte et image sont considérés a priori comme des médias hétérogènes, ils ne sont pas perçus comme des termes étrangers ou concurrents dans le monde de l’idéogramme. …”

“…In the recent years, multiple studies have unveiled the functions of specific isoforms, their mechanisms of regulation and their participation in different pathways leading to and from DG and PA. Animal models have greatly helped to understand the specialized contribution of DGK mediated signals, particularly in the immune and central nervous systems. …”

“…He returned to France six years later having gathered significant natural history collections (of plants, animals, and minerals) and a great deal of information on the region’s history, physical geography, and uses of its natural products. …”

“…Might it be possible to welcome the pain of "knowing" if it led to different ways of working with non-human others, recognizing a confluence of desire across the human/non-human divide and the vital rhythms that animate the world? We think that we can work against singular and global representations of "the problem" in the face of which any small, multiple, place-based action is rendered hopeless. …”

“…Computational models and animal studies are also welcome. Finally, we also welcome submission of meta-analyses and reviews articles that provide new insights into, or conclusions about recent work in the field…”
