Manger est un geste agricole. En 12 légumes et fruits, Marie-Claude Lortie et Jean-Martin Fortier font le tour des grands enjeux de notre agriculture, comme la culture et l’élevage industriels, l’accessibilité, le gaspillage, l’utilisation des pesticides et des engrais, les OGM, et nous démontrent qu’il est possible de transformer le modèle agricole actuel en faisant de meilleurs choix. Et pourquoi pas jardiner soi-même ? Beaucoup d’informations utiles pour mettre en place un potager personnel de base sont exposées, en plus des conseils avisés du jardinier-maraîcher en matière de culture biologique. JEAN-MARTIN FORTIER a cofondé, en 2004, Les Jardins de la grelinette une microferme écologique. En 2015, André Desmarais lui propose de développer la ferme de l’avenir. La Ferme des Quatre-Temps est un modèle inspiré de la permaculture, où se côtoient la culture maraîchère biologique et l’élevage de boeufs, de poules et de porcs de pâturage. Il a signé Le Jardinier-maraîcher paru chez Écosociété, vendu à plus de 150 000 exemplaires et aujourd’hui traduit en 8 langues. MARIE-CLAUDE LORTIE est journaliste à La Presse depuis 1988.

The Other End of the Leash shares a revolutionary, new perspective on our relationship with dogs, focusing on our behavior in comparison with that of dogs. An applied animal behaviorist and dog trainer with more than twenty years experience, Dr. Patricia McConnell looks at humans as just another interesting species, and muses about why we behave the way we do around our dogs, how dogs might interpret our behavior, and how to interact with our dogs in ways that bring out the best in our four-legged friends. After all, although humans and dogs share a remarkable relationship that is unique in the animal world, we are still two entirely different species, each shaped by our individual evolutionary heritage. Quite simply, humans are primates and dogs are canids (like wolves, coyotes, and foxes). Since we each speak a different native tongue, a lot gets lost in the translation. The Other End of the Leash demonstrates how even the slightest changes in your voice and the way you stand can help your dog understand what you want. Once you start to think about your own behavior from the perspective of your dog, you’ll understand why much of what appears to be doggy-disobedience is simply a case of miscommunication. Inside you will learn • How to use your voice so that your dog is more likely to do what you ask. • Why “getting dominance” over your dog is a bad idea. • Why “rough and tumble primate play” can lead to trouble–and how to play with your dog in ways that are fun and keep him out of trouble. • How dogs and humans share personality types–and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than “alphawannabees!” In her own insightful, compelling style, Patricia McConnell combines wonderful true stories about people and dogs with a new, accessible scientific perspective on how they should behave around each other. This is a book that strives to help you make the most of life with your dog, and to prevent problems that might arise in that most rewarding of relationships. |

Welcome to the World of Detection Dogs. This manual is designed to assist a handler of a detection dog to enhance their team’s proficiency in the detection of a trained odor. It is the author’s belief that the foundation of a successful handler lays in accumulating both practical experience and a firm knowledge of the Canine Olfactory System. The manual does not attempt to cover all areas of canine olfaction and odor movement. It is just the foundation, a primer where the handler should continue to learn about odor and olfaction to better understand how their canine partner detects the world of odors. I must caution those that are new to the field of canine detection. The information contained herein is a foundation. Do not take this information and over analyze each scenting problem, let your dog teach you. “Train don’t Test”. Watch your dog as they unravel each new scenting problem. TRUST your dog! |

An inside look at the obsessive, secretive, and often bizarre world of high-profile stamp collecting, told through the journey of the world’s most sought-after stamp. When it was issued in 1856, it cost a penny. In 2014, the one-cent magenta sold at Sotheby’s for nearly $9.5 million, the most money ever paid for a stamp at auction. Following the journey of this highly coveted item, we meet a fascinating gallery of eccentric, rich, and influential characters who have bought, owned, and sold this tiny square of faded red paper. One-cent magentas were provisional stamps, printed in what was British Guiana when a shipment of official stamps failed to arrive. Most were thrown out with the newspapers. But one stamp survived. The singular one-cent magenta has had only nine owners since a twelve-year-old boy discovered it in 1873. He soon sold it—in what many call the worst stamp deal in history—for what would be $17 today. Among later owners was a wealthy Frenchman who hid the stamp from everyone, including King George V; a businessman who traveled with the stamp in a briefcase handcuffed to his wrist; and John E. du Pont, an heir to the chemical fortune, who died in prison after murdering Olympic wrestler Dave Schultz. Together, their stories form a peculiar global history of immense wealth and obsessive desire. |
