Environ 6 % des naissances sont prématurées. Jusqu'au XXe siècle, la plupart de ces enfants décédaient. En effet, les bébés prématurés risquent plus de présenter des problèmes de développement que ceux nés à terme. Ces problèmes sont dus surtout à l'immaturité du système nerveux central et des poumons qui n'ont pu se développer complètement pendant la grossesse. Généralement, plus l'âge gestationnel est bas, plus les répercussions sont élevées.Actuellement, on assiste à un double phénomène. Malgré les progrès considérables de la médecine, la prématurité connaît un regain de fréquence. Pourquoi ? On sauve de plus en plus de bébés nés avec un très faible poids de naissance. Quelles en sont les conséquences ? Une prématurité légère a longtemps été considérée comme exempte de risques. Est-ce vraiment le cas ? Le présent ouvrage de vulgarisation éclairée s'adresse à tous les parents concernés qui attendent un nouveau-né "trop tôt" et à tous les soignants qui souhaitent mettre à jour leurs connaissances dans ce domaine. Le lecteur suit Yanis, un petit être qui va prendre forme dans le ventre de sa maman et vivre l'expérience d'une naissance prématurée avec son cortège de soins plus ou moins inquiétants, émouvants et parfois traumatisants. Les auteurs ont souhaité un abord qui mette en scène la vie, ses multiples facettes, sa richesse et ses espérances, sans oublier la souffrance de ceux qui prennent des chemins de traverse.

This volume is the outcome of an international symposium held in Berlin, FRG, which brought together researchers in the field of infant development. The contributors are from Europe and North America, and have as their primary professional interest either pediatrics, biology or psychology. These fields, in spite of common involvement and large overlap, still have to overcome communication problems and differences in scientific approaches. The emphasis of this book is on the efforts of the participants towards reaching a mutual understanding. In spite of disciplinary diversity, the papers in this book complement each other, and set the scene for future multidisciplinary research and exchange in the field of infant development.

Commemorating 100 years since the publication of Sir George Newman's 'Infant Mortality: A Social Problem', this volume evaluates Newman's critical contribution, reviews current understandings of the history of infant and early childhood mortality and discusses modern approaches to infant health as a continuing social problem. It also proposes new ways of defining and tackling the problem of persistent mortality differentials.

Children Remembered discusses the relationship between parents and children in the past. It focuses on the ways in which adults responded to the untimely deaths of children, whether and how they expressed their grief. The study engages with the hypothesis of 'parental indifference' associated with the French cultural historian Philippe Ariès by analysing the changing risk of mortality since the sixteenth century and assessing its consequences. It uses paintings and poems to describe feelings and emotions in ways that are not only highly original, but also challenge traditional disciplinary conventions. The circumstances of infant and child mortality are considered for France and England, while example portraits and poems are selected from England and America. While the work is firmly grounded in demography, it is especially concerned with current debates in social and cultural history, with the history of childhood, the way pictorial images can be 'read', and the use as historical evidence to which literature may be put. This is a wide- ranging and ambitions multi-disciplinary study that will add significantly to our understanding of demographic structures; the ways in which they have conditioned attitudes and behaviour in the past.
