Résumé:
Inspired by the picture book "Undercover", a sixty-four-page masterpiece of spot-the-odd-one-out published in 2016, comes a series of odd-one-out board books for the youngest readers. Bastien Contraire creates spreads with four to eight images each - all of which belong together, except one that may resemble the others but has no business joining the lot. A teapot amongst sitting cats, a belt amongst snakes, and a feathered hat amongst birds are all hiding in plain site for the delighted toddler to discover giddily! Young readers will exercise skills of categorization and visual acuity in finding the 'poser', and bask in the preposterous silliness.

Résumé:
In this book the author offers a critical, philosophical, and historical inquiry into the characteristics and consequences of this consumer subculture. For Azuma, one of Japan’s leading public intellectuals, otaku culture mirrors the transformations of postwar Japanese society and the nature of human behavior in the postmodern era. He traces otaku’s ascendancy to the distorted conditions created in Japan by the country’s phenomenal postwar modernization, its inability to come to terms with its defeat in the Second World War, and America’s subsequent cultural invasion. More broadly, Azuma argues that the consumption behavior of otaku is representative of the postmodern consumption of culture in general, which sacrifices the search for greater significance to almost animalistic instant gratification.

Résumé:
À l’échelle de la vie, les « voyages » des plantes et des animaux à travers la planète ont toujours existé. Mais ce grand « brassage planétaire » des êtres vivants s’accélère singulièrement depuis quelques dizaines d’années, avec l’accroissement des activités humaines sur la planète. Vitesse des transports, augmentation de possibles rencontres, naturalisations, hybridations... Tout cela crée des bouleversements écologiques, des opportunités aussi, pour des nouveaux « écosystèmes émergents » issus de ces rencontres. Tandis qu’une part de la diversité biologique en souffre, une autre part en bénéficie. Le temps d’un échange, Gilles Clément, Francis Hallé et François Letourneux se sont retrouvés lors d’une conférence au centre Pompidou à Paris. Une discussion s’est engagée entre ces trois hommes, ces trois points de vue sur le brassage planétaire. Est-il un mécanisme ordinaire de l’évolution ? Quels sont ces plantes et ces animaux vagabonds ? Doit-on les contrôler et comment ? Et quel rôle doit jouer l’homme dans tout ça ?...

Résumé:
"Animal metropolis" brings a Canadian perspective to the growing field of animal history, ranging across species and cities, from the beavers who engineered Stanley Park to the carthorses who shaped the city of Montreal. Some essays consider animals as spectacle: orca captivity in Vancouver, polar bear tourism in Churchill, Manitoba, fish on display in the Dominion Fisheries Museum, and the racialized memory of Jumbo the elephant in St. Thomas, Ontario. Others examine the bodily intimacies of shared urban spaces: the regulation of rabid dogs in Banff, the maternal politics of pure milk in Hamilton and the circulation of tetanus bacilli from horse to human in Toronto. Another considers the marginalization of women in Canada’s animal welfare movement. The authors collectively push forward from a historiography that features nonhuman animals as objects within human-centered inquiries to a historiography that considers the eclectic contacts, exchanges, and cohabitation of human and nonhuman animals.
