During the later part of the last century there was rapid development of the study and understanding of the changing environments of the last 2 million years. This came to provide a firm background for today's knowledge of the significance and importance of climatic change. Interdisciplinary research has been a prominent, if not essential, contributor to the successes achieved. In illustration of this connection, I describe here such developments in the University of Cambridge. In 1948 the University established a Subdepartment of Quaternary Research, with teaching and research activities covering geological, biological and archaeological topics. An interdisciplinary approach was an essential ingredient, and the research covered both terrestrial and marine spheres. The book traces the history of Quaternary research in Britain and Ireland, particularly the continental influences which stimulated research and indeed led to the establishment of the Subdepartment. The early years of th

Ce n'est pas tous les jours qu'un homme d'Église avoue avoir perdu la foi. Après le décès tragique du petit enfant d'un couple d'amis, Daniel décide de changer d'horizon et de visiter plusieurs réserves indiennes des États-Unis et du Canada. Les rencontres et découvertes qu'il y fait l'amènent à avoir honte de la chrétienté dont il s'est réclamé durant plus d'une vingtaine d'années. Il réalise qu'elle a cautionné l'appropriation injuste de territoires dans lesquels les Indiens vivaient depuis des siècles, ainsi que des massacres horribles, et qu'elle a participé à une assimilation culturelle et religieuse forcée. Ce livre entraine le lecteur au-delà du témoignage personnel, jusque dans une relecture critique de l'Histoire, de la vision du monde occidental et de la chrétienté. L'auteur dénonce sans langue de bois, les dérives humaines et religieuses, même actuelles, qu'il n'hésite pas à qualifier d'offenses au C

In the early 1990s, Swedish death metal revolutionized the international music scene. Suddenly, the mild-mannered Scandinavian country found itself at the forefront of a new movement with worldwide impact thanks to bands such as Entombed, Dismember, and At the Gates. The birth of black metal drove the culture to even greater extremes, featuring a rawer, darker sound and non-ironic death-worship. Soon churches in both Norway and Sweden were aflame, and be- fore long Satanism emerged as more than just an image. But how did it all start? Why did Sweden become a hotbed for such aggressive, nihilistic music? And who are the people and bands that brought it all about? Blood, Fire, Death: A Swedish Metal Story recounts the evolution of the genre from the massive amplifier walls of 1970s rock, through the church-burning Satanic 1990s, to the diverse and paradoxical manifestations of the scene today. This book focuses on the phenomena that have propelled the scene forward in an evolution that
