Breath is the flow of air between life and death. Breathing is an involuntary action that functions as the basis of all human activities, intellectual, artistic, emotional and physical. Breathing is the first autonomous individual action that brings life into being and the end of breathing is the definitive sign of disappearance. Starting from the question how breathing affects the body, levels of consciousness, perception and meaning, this book, for the first time, investigates through a variety of philosophical, critical and practical models, directly and indirectly related to breath, aiming to establish breath as a category in the production and reception of meaning within the context of theatre. It also explores the epistemological, psycho-physical and consciousness-related implications of breath. Aristotle dedicated a volume to breath exploring and enquiring in to its presocratic roots. For Heidegger, breath is “the temporal extension” of Being . Artaud’s theatricality is not representational but rather rooted in the actor’s breathing. Jacques Derrida and Luce Irigaray investigate the phenomenon of breath in order to explain the nature of human consciousness. Breath as a philosophical concept and as a system of practice is central to Indian thoughts, performance, medicine, martial arts and spirituality. As the book argues, individual consciousness is a temporal experience and breath is the material presence of time in the body. Cessation of breath, on the contrary, creates pause in this flow of the endless identification of signifiers. When breath stops time stops. When time stops there is a ‘gap’ in the chain of the presence of signifiers and this ‘gap’ is a different perceptual modality, which is neutral in Zero velocity. Restoration of Breath is a practical approach to this psychophysical experience of consciousness in which time exists only in eternity and void beyond memory and meaning.

La pratique quotidienne de la kinésithérapie a été modifiée par l'introduction du bilan-diagnostic et l'acquisition d'une plus grande autonomie du thérapeute. Cet ouvrage consacré à la rééducation respiratoire, qui a elle-même évolué rapidement ces dernières années, entérine ces modifications et propose une approche originale tant dans son contenu que dans sa présentation. Le coeur de l'ouvrage est constitué de chapitres traitant de la prévention et du traitement des grands types de dysfonctions que le praticien doit prendre en charge au quotidien (troubles de la mécanique ventilatoire externe, encombrement et obstruction bronchiques, insuffisance respiratoire, désadaptation à l'effort?). L'accent est mis sur les objectifs et les moyens spécifiques qui caractérisent le projet thérapeutique du kinésithérapeute. Une partie de pré-requis et 30 fiches techniques encadrent l'exposé des traitements et font l'objet de nombreux renvois tout au long du livre : ? Les pré-requis présentent de manière synthétique les bases physiologiques et physiopathologiques nécessaires à la compréhension des phénomènes en jeu dans les troubles respiratoires. ? Les fiches « Évaluation » donnent tous les outils nécessaires à l'élaboration du bilan-diagnostic et au suivi continu du patient. ? Les fiches « Rééducation » proposent sous un format pratique les techniques de prise en charge des patients tant au cabinet libéral qu'en milieu hospitalier. Les auteurs présentent pour conclure un cas clinique, application concrète de la démarche diagnostique et thérapeutique en kinésithérapie respiratoire. Accompagné d'une riche bibliographie, l'ouvrage s'impose comme une référence pour le praticien. Grâce à sa structure didactique, il constitue de surcroît un outil unique pour l'étudiant : il l'accompagnera dans l'apprentissage de ce domaine complexe qu'est la kinésithérapie respiratoire. Marc Antonello est cadre supérieur kinésithérapeute à l'hôpital Antoine Béclère à Clamart et responsable de l'enseignement de la kinésithérapie respiratoire à l'école d'Assas (Paris). Dominique Delplanque est kinésithérapeute, certifié en kinésithérapie respiratoire, praticien libéral et formateur en formation continue professionnelle. Ils se sont entourés d'une équipe de collaborateurs qui enseignent aux écoles d'Assas, Nancy, Orléans et à l'EFOM (Paris).

Professors Furley and Wilkie have provided a newly edited Greek text and a complete English translation with commentary of four of Galen's physiological treatises on respiration and the arteries. Their text is the first to make use of Arabic translations of An in arteriis and De usu pulsuum based on a Greek text that is earlier and better than the surviving tines. These translations have enabled them to make substantial improvements in the earlier editions of the treatises. Introducing the text are essays by Professors Furley and Wilkie on the history of theories of respiration and bloodflow in classical antiquity, the influence of Galen's work on Harvey, and Galen's experimentation and argument.Originally published in 1984.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
