Résumé:
Pour la journaliste scientifique Sonia Shah, il est temps de reconnaître le rôle central des migrations dans l’histoire de la vie sur Terre, car le mouvement a toujours été le meilleur moyen d’assurer la survie collective des espèces. Or, la migration a mauvaise presse: les États se dotent de politiques antimigrants et érigent des murs barbelés au nom de la sécurité(...)

Résumé:
Pour la journaliste scientifique Sonia Shah, il est temps de reconnaître le rôle central des migrations dans l’histoire de la vie sur Terre, car le mouvement a toujours été le meilleur moyen d’assurer la survie collective des espèces. Or, la migration a mauvaise presse: les États se dotent de politiques antimigrants et érigent des murs barbelés au nom de la sécurité nationale. En biologie, les espèces animales ou végétales exogènes sont considérées comme « envahissantes ». Pour déconstruire ces perceptions tenaces, Sonia Shah a suivi les migrants dans leurs périples, de l’île de Lesbos à la frontière entre le Mexique et les États-Unis, et plongé dans une fascinante recherche documentaire. Elle retrace les déplacements spectaculaires dans le règne animal et explique comment nos ancêtres ont peuplé les coins les plus isolés de la planète, des plateaux tibétains aux îles reculées du Pacifique. Dans un contexte de montée du racisme et de la xénophobie, Shah renverse notre regard sur les migrations pour en dévoiler toute la richesse et la beauté.

Résumé:
As New York came to a halt with COVID, Michael Kimmelman composed an email to a group of architects, historians, writers, and friends, inviting them to take a walk. What began with a lighthearted trip to explore Broadway’s shuttered theater district and a stroll along Museum Mile when the museums were closed soon took on a much larger meaning and ambition. These intimate, funny, richly detailed conversations between Kimmelman and his companions became anchors for millions of Times readers during the pandemic. The walks unpacked the essence of urban life and its social fabric—the history, plans, laws, feats of structural engineering, architectural highlights, and everyday realities that make up the city. Filled with stunning photographs documenting the city during the era of COVID, this book is the ultimate insider’s guide. A kaleidoscopic portrait of an enduring metropolis, it reveals why New York continues to inspire and to mean so much to those who call it home and to countless others.

Résumé:
As a child growing up in Manhattan, William Helmreich played a game with his father called "Last Stop." They would pick a subway line, ride it to its final destination, and explore the neighborhood. Decades later, his love for exploring the city is as strong as ever. Putting his feet to the test, he decided that the only way to truly understand New York was to walk virtually every block of all five boroughs--an astonishing 6,000 miles. His journey took him to every corner of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. Helmreich spoke with hundreds of New Yorkers from every part of the globe and all walks of life. He finds that to be a New Yorker is to struggle to understand the place and to make a life that is as highly local as it is dynamically cosmopolitan.

Horowitz also walks with a child and a dog to see the world as they perceive it. What they see, how they see it, and why most of us do not see the same things reveal the startling power of human attention and the cognitive aspects of what it means to be an expert observer.
