Nowadays, the increasing availability of technology and the transition towards more sedentary occupations and recreation activities make sedentary behaviours an emerging research topic in behavioural epidemiology. This is particularly important because the available evidence consolidates the harmful relationship between sedentary behaviour and cardiometabolic risk markers and health outcomes. While the feasibility and benefits of changing sedentary behaviours have been demonstrated, this knowledge underpins the need for intersectoral public health interventions in workplaces and school settings. This book examines sedentary behaviours, current methods of assessment, the risk these behaviours present to individual health, and the importance of their interruption.

Plus aucune science ne peut penser les animaux à elle seule, ni prétendre pouvoir faire le tour de la question : pour mieux lire les animaux, il faut croiser les sciences. C'est devenu une évidence entre les différentes sciences de la nature, où des croisements ont déjà donné naissance à des hybrides devenus disciplines à part entière, telle l'écologie comportementale ; c'est aussi vrai entre les sciences humaines, qui ont investi, depuis quelques décennies, le versant humain des relations avec les animaux. Cet ouvrage propose un troisième croisement, novateur, difficile, car peu pensé, peu usité, entre les sciences dites « de la nature » et les sciences dites « humaines ». Il s'agit de montrer que les questions, les concepts et les méthodes de ces dernières peuvent apporter beaucoup à la connaissance des animaux eux-mêmes, à l'étude de leurs capacités qui sont de plus en plus reconnues comme étant riches et complexes. Il y a profit - et donc un besoin - à croiser les sciences de la vie - génétique, physiologie, éthologie, écologie, neurosciences - avec les sciences de l'homme - archéozoologie, histoire de l'art, histoire, littérature, anthropologie, sociologie, ethnologie - pour décrypter, saisir et penser davantage les animaux - en somme, passer sur le versant animal. Rassemblant des spécialistes de ces disciplines, ce livre s'adresse aux archéologues, aux historiens, aux géographes, aux littéraires, aux anthropologues, aux sociologues, aux philosophes, comme aux généticiens, aux zoologues, aux éthologues, aux écologues, aux vétérinaires. Et aux passionnés d'animaux.
