        Le mystérieux tunnel de la rue Basel

        by Pnina Ophir

        Le mystérieux tunnel de la rue Basel, par Pnina Ophir Cette fascinante histoire se déroule dans un vieux quartier typique du centre de Tel-Aviv. Il y avait depuis bien longtemps une station de pompiers, des ambulances de la croix rouge, ainsi qu’un marché coloré. Un jour, la nature de la rue changea complètement. Des bulldozers commencèrent à détruire les immeubles du quartier, pour les remplacer par deux tours modernes d’habitation et un jardin public. Des enfants de 6ème habitant le quartier découvrent alors, qu’un plus des excavations de la société de construction, d’autres excavations privées se préparent. Deux criminels décidèrent de profiter du bruit et du tumulte dans le quartier pour chercher le mystérieux trésor qui avait été enterré il y a bien longtemps sous la station de pompiers. La curiosité et le courage des enfants permirent finalement de prendre les criminels sur le fait, et d’éclaircir ainsi tout le mystère.

        Bovine Tuberculosis

        by Mark Chambers, Stephen Gordon, Francisco Olea-Popelka, Paul Barrow

        This book is contemporary, topical and global in its approach, and provides an essential, comprehensive treatise on bovine tuberculosis and the bacterium that causes it, Mycobacterium bovis. Bovine tuberculosis remains a major cause of economic loss in cattle industries worldwide, exacerbated in some countries by the presence of a substantial wildlife reservoir. It is a major zoonosis, causing human infection through consumption of unpasteurised milk or by close contact with infected animals. Following a systematic approach, expert international authors cover epidemiology and the global situation; microbial virulence and pathogenesis; host responses to the pathogen; and diagnosis and control of the disease. Aimed at researchers and practising veterinarians, this book is essential for those needing comprehensive information on the pathogen and disease, and offers a summary of key information learned from human tuberculosis research. It will be useful to those studying the infection and for those responsible for controlling the disease.

        Politics, performance and popular culture

        Theatre and society in nineteenth-century Britain

        by Peter Yeandle, Katherine Newey, Jeffrey Richards

        This collection brings together studies of popular performance and politics across the nineteenth century, offering a fresh perspective from an archivally grounded research base. It works with the concept that politics is performative and performance is political. The book is organised into three parts in dialogue regarding specific approaches to popular performance and politics. Part I offers a series of conceptual studies using popular culture as an analytical category for social and political history. Part II explores the ways that performance represents and constructs contemporary ideologies of race, nation and empire. Part III investigates the performance techniques of specific politicians - including Robert Peel, Keir Hardie and Henry Hyndman - and analyses the performative elements of collective movements.
