Going to university used to be a passport to future success, but that's no longer the case. For some students,…
it's still a good choice that leads to a successful career, but for many their degrees are worthless pieces of paper. Choose the wrong program and graduation is more likely to lead to disillusionment and debt than a steady paycheque. Yet parents, guidance counsellors, and politicians still push higher education as if it's the only option for building a secure future. The authors set out to explore the many and varied educational opportunities and career paths open to Canadian high school students and those in their twenties. Young adults will gain much insight regarding the path that is best for them: whether to pursue a degree, enrol for skills training, or investigate one of the many other options that are available.

By Laure Adler. 2006
[...] Les artistes de toutes les époques ont représenté des femmes en train de lire. Pourtant, il aura fallu des…
siècles avant qu'il soit accordé aux femmes de lire à leur guise. Ce qui leur incombait d'abord, c'était de broder, de prier, de s'occuper des enfants et de cuisiner. Dès l'instant où elles envisagent la lecture comme une possibilité de troquer l'étroitesse du monde domestique contre l'espace illimité de la pensée, de l'imagination, mais aussi du savoir, les femmes deviennent dangereuses. En lisant, elles s'approprient des connaissances et des expériences auxquelles la société ne les avait pas prédestinées. C'est ce chapitre captivant de l'histoire de la lecture féminine que Laure Adler et Stefan Bollmann explorent, avec un soin particulier du détail. Le fil de l'analyse conduit du Moyen Âge au temps présent, en s'attachant plus spécialement à certaines oeuvres de Rembrandt, Vermeer, mais aussi Manet, Matisse ou Hopper, jusqu'à la fameuse photographie d'Eve Arnold montrant Marilyn Monroe en train de lire Ulysse de James Joyce.

"C'est pas juste !" : combien de fois un enfant ne prononce-t-il pas - tout haut ou en silence -…
cette exclamation indignée ? Combien de fois n'a-t-il pas le sentiment de ne pas avoir la place qui lui revient ? Mais un adulte aussi trouve injuste, selon les cas, une contravention, un licenciement, une guerre, la réussite du voisin. Ce qui est juste, pensons-nous, doit l'être pour tous. Or nous pensons aussi qu'il doit y avoir ce qui est juste pour chacun, comme un vêtement bien ajusté, ou comme le droit de faire "juste ce que je veux". Y a-t-il donc deux justices ? L'une égale pour tous, l'autre différente pour chacun ? Mais chacune ne risque-t-elle pas d'être injuste à sa manière, en s'opposant à l'autre ? Qu'est-ce donc qui est juste ? Et de qui peut-on dire que "c'est un juste" ? -- 4e de couvNous sommes les musiciens!: chansons traditionnelles (Livre-disque)
