Que signifient les discours actuels en faveur du « post-séculier » ? Et pourquoi faudrait-il en finir avec l'âge séculier ? Qui l'exige ou le demande ? Quels sont les événements qui le requièrent ? Ces dernières années, un débat sur la place de la religion dans les démocraties libérales s'est engagé dans le monde intellectuel. Si certains ont parlé d'un Âge séculier et d'autres d'une « société post-séculière », c'est parfois la dynamique même de sécularisation de l'espace public qui semble avoir été remise en cause. Plus profondément, ce sont les rapports entre religions, sciences et démocraties qui ont été questionnés. En faisant délibérément usage de ces termes au pluriel - pour indiquer qu'il existe différentes formes de religion, plusieurs genres de sciences et plusieurs conceptions de la démocratie - les contributions rassemblées dans ce volume entendent sonder ces rapports et cette pluralité. Le lecteur y trouvera la traduction française de plusieurs interventions de John Dewey sur l'anti-naturalisme et la religion, des contributions de pragmatistes contemporains et des enquêtes sur le rôle public de la foi ou sur la mise en cause de l'autorité épistémique des sciences, aussi bien aux États-Unis, qu'en Europe et en Afrique du nord.

In the framework of health services research sponsored by the Swiss National Science Foundation, a research was undertaken of the activity of the large majority of the public health nurses working in the Swiss cantons of Vaud and Fribourg (total population 700,000). During one week, 130 nurses gathered, with a specially devised instrument, data on 4165 patient visits. Studying the duration of the contacts, one has distinguished contact duration per se (DC), duration of the travel time preceding the contact (DD), and total duration in relation with the contact (DTC-addition of the first two). It was noted that the three durations increased significantly with patient age (as regard travel time, this is explained by the higher proportion of home visits in higher age groups, as compared with visits at a health center). Examined according to location of the visit, contact duration per se (without travel) is higher for visits at home and in nursing homes than for those taking place at a health center. Looked at in respect to the care given (technical care, or basic nursing care, or both simultaneously), our data show that the provision of basic nursing care (alone or with technical care) doubles contact duration (from 20 to 42-45'). The analyses according to patient age shows that, at an advanced age (beyond 80 years particularly), there is an important increase of the visits where both types of care are given. However, contact duration per se shows a significant raise with age only for the group "technical care only"; it can be demonstrated that this is due to the fact that older patients require more complex technical acts (e.g., bladder care, as compared with simpler acts such as injection). A model of the relationships between patient age and contact duration is proposed: it is because of the increase in the proportions of home visits, of visits including basic nursing care, and of more complex technical acts that older persons require more of the working time of public health nurses.

Q-sort is a research method which allows defining profiles of attitudes toward a set of statements, ordered in relation to each other. Pertaining to the Q Methodology, the qualitative analysis of the Q-sorts is based on quantitative techniques. This method is of particular interest for research in health professions, a field in which attitudes of patients and professionals are very important. The method is presented in this article, along with an example of application in nursing in old age psychiatry.

La neige, dans ses dimensions optiques, chromatiques et plastiques, dans ses états instables et variables, constitue l'un des enjeux centraux de l'esthétique contemporaine,. Neige blanc papier fait l'historiographie des esthétiques de la neige, de la quête d'un art pur, affranchi de toute contrainte illustrative, littéraire, voire représentative, à la construction de formes expressives où se réinvente un langage-espace. Au coeur du volume, le calepin d'artiste réalisé par la plasticienne Catherine Bolle, Inhumaine neige lunel, concrétise à son tour l'imaginaire poétique de la neige dans la matérialité esthétique du livre.

A 98-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because of myoclonia. The concentration of calcium and vitamin D in the serum was low. In this context, we concluded of neuromuscular irritability secondary to hypocalcaemia. The symptoms disappeared after a treatment of intravenous calcium. This case shows how important it is to investigate electrolytes in case of neuromuscular irritability symptoms in elderly people.

Untill recently, congenital heart disease was considered as a childhood's disease. With improvement in pediatric survival, adults with a congenital heart disease (ACHD) represent an emerging group of patients who need specialized medical care. In 2010, the ESC published newguidelines on global and specific management of adults with congenital heart disease. ACHD centers organize appropriate medical care for these patients, promote specialist training and national scientific research in collaboration with other national ACHD centers.

In recent decades the percentage of energy derived from dietary fat has increased. The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between food taste preferences, BMI, age, gender and smoking habits. A computerized questionnaire using a hedonic scale (range 0 to 8) to quantify the liking for sweet and savoury, lean and fat foods, was filled by 233 adults: 171 normal weight (131 women, 40 men) and 62 overweight subjects (BMI > 25 kg/m2 42 women, 20 men). The majority of the subjects had a general preference for savoury lean food irrespective of their BMI or gender. Similarly, preference for sweet lean food was not influenced by the magnitude of the BMI. In contrast, overweight subjects had a preference for sweet fat food (p = 0.05) as well as for savoury fat food (p < 0.05). At any age or BMI, men preferred sweet fat food (p < 0.01). This was not the case for women. Overweight men over forty preferred savoury fat food, in contrast to overweight women of the same age (p < 0.01). The same difference existed between normal weight smokers and non-smokers. This study demonstrates that fat food preference plays a potential role in the development of obesity.

Partant du concept de « politique des petites choses », cette contribution éclaire les coulisses de la précampagne de l'élection présidentielle américaine de 2004. D'abord centrée sur la campagne du démocrate Howard Dean, l'enquête documente ensuite les activités de la droite chrétienne, et montre la redoutable efficacité de cet acteur politique, ainsi que les problèmes qu'il pose à la démocratie. Si la droite chrétienne est habile à mobiliser ses fidèles et à attiser leur participation, son mode de fonctionnement est éminemment problématique, les réseaux d'Églises sur lesquels elle s'appuie n'étant pas des modèles de fonctionnement et d'éthos démocratiques.
