"Nonhuman animals are ubiquitous to our 'human' societies. Interdisciplinary human/animal research has - for 50 years - drawn attention to how animals are ever-present in what we think of as human spaces and cultures. Our societies are built with animals and through all kinds of multispecies interactions. From public spaces and laboratories to homes, farms and in the 'wilderness'; human and nonhuman animals meet to make space and place together, through webs of power relations. However, the very spaces of these interactions are not mute or passive themselves. The spaces where species meet matter, and shape human/animal relations. This book takes as its starting point the relationship between place and human/animal interaction. It brings together the work of leading scholars in human/animal studies, from a variety of disciplinary and interdisciplinary backgrounds. With a distinct focus on place, physical space and biocultural geography, the authors of this volume consider the ways in which space, human and nonhuman animals co-constitute each other, how they make spaces together, produce meaning around them, struggle over access, how these places are storied and how stories of spaces matter. Presenting studies thematically and including a variety of nonhuman creatures in a range of settings, this book delivers new understandings of the importance of nonhuman animals to understandings of place - and the role of places in shaping our interactions with nonhuman creatures. As pets, as laboratory animals, as exhibits, as parasites, as livestock, as quarry, as victims of disaster or objects of folklore, this book offers insights into human/animal intermingling at locales and settings of great relevance to many areas of research, including geography, sociology, science and technology studies, gender studies, history and anthropology. This book meets the evolving interest in human/animal interaction, anthrozoology, and the environmental humanities in relation to the research on space and place that currently informs the humanities and the social sciences."--Provided by publisher.

Pourquoi le chien occupe-t-il aujourd'hui une place à part ? Guide d'aveugle, chien d'assistance, il est surtout celui qui, considérant son maître handicapé comme une personne ordinaire (et extraordinaire car c'est Son maître), le fait s'accepter, se dépasser, prendre sa place dans la société. Aux côtés des personnes âgées, il réveille les souvenirs, combat les idées moroses et le repli sur soi. Pour l'enfant, il est tour à tour confident, compagnon de jeux, modèle de la vie réelle, éponge affective. Passerelle vivante pour ceux qui souffrent de troubles psychiques, il est un lien possible pour ceux qui sont en rupture avec la société. C'est ainsi que le chien se révèle un partenaire de choix dans les activités associant l'animal (AAA). Cet ouvrage, réalisé par un groupe de recherche pluridisciplinaire, identifie, recense, analyse les expériences conduites en France par des professionnels de santé, avec l'aide de chiens, que ce soit dans les institutions accueillant des personnes en difficultés ou en exercice libéral. Illustrations de bonnes pratiques, il propose un cadre méthodologique de référence : condition de sélection et d'éducation du chien ; indications possibles en fonction du public concerné ; élaboration d'un projet rigoureux ; cadre matériel, sanitaire et éthique ; démarche de suivi et d'évaluation des actions. Conçu comme un véritable outil de travail pour les professionnels de la santé, cet ouvrage a pour ambition de susciter actions et projets de qualité associant l'homme et le chien dans le respect et l'attention partagés.
