A general practitioner-teacher and a university professor have chosen to revitalize the theoretical teaching of immunology by grounding it in clinical experience. While modern immunology, like endocrinology and neuroscience, is largely a discipline of intercellular communication, this manual owes much of its quality to the ongoing interaction between the two authors, who worked to select the essential elements and firmly ground them in everyday practice. Another characteristic of this work is its combination of rigor and simplicity. Too many books, and especially too many articles, discourage physicians with their abundance of information and poor integration. This is not the case here, as the didactic presentation is based on the indisputable achievements of modern immunology, selected for their explanatory value and harmoniously assembled whenever the current state of knowledge allows. The Department of General Medicine at the Paris-Sud Faculty of Medicine was established around Antoine Bédère Hospital more than twenty years ago, at the same time as INSERM Unit 131 and just a few years after the creation of the hospital's Internal Medicine department. This network and the bonds of friendship among its members remain strong and fruitful. This book is further evidence of that.

Exmoor National Park, England.
A teenage girl, left alone in her father's car while he went hunting in the moors, is kidnapped. A note placed on the steering wheel sounds like an accusation: "You don't love her."
Soon, around the small town of Shipcott, the scenario was repeating itself relentlessly. Children, left unattended for a few minutes in a vehicle, were kidnapped. The only clue: the same message from the culprit. No claim of responsibility, no ransom demand, no hope.
The police seem powerless. Every passing day diminishes the chances of finding the children alive, and panic grips the community. Especially since some have good reason to believe that police officer Jonas Holly, with his troubled past, is the last person who can be trusted…

L'auteur nous invite à porter un regard attentif sur les conduites des Malades d'Alzheimer et sur celles que nous adoptons avec eux. C'est toute la question de l'expression comportementale qui vient à se poser à leur propos, au même titre que chez tout un chacun. Nous sommes entraînés à pénétrer dans les mystères de la communication inconsciente. Il devient alors nécessaire de s'interroger sérieusement sur les aspects idéologiques du rôle attribué, sans preuves formelles, aux lésions cérébrales. Un tel fil directeur permet de progresser dans la connaissance de la maladie du point de vue du malade. Mieux se représenter son mode de pensée, sa problématique et ses besoins psychologiques, permet de mieux organiser sa prise en charge et d'apprendre à négocier avec lui. La pratique sociothérapie, dont les principes sont exposés, en fournit une illustration concrète

Que sait-on vraiment de la Libye ? Que dissimule la personnalité fantasque et mégalomaniaque du colonel Kadhafi... Pour tenter de mieux cerner les origines et les enjeux de la guerre civile, et pour comprendre comment ce régime a pu perdurer plus de quarante ans, Patrick Haimzadeh, l’un des meilleurs connaisseurs de la Libye, nous propose un tableau clair et complet de ce pays.
Il y est question d’histoire, des conquêtes phéniciennes jusqu’à la Libye actuelle, en passant par l’occupation italienne, de géographie humaine aussi, où l’on apprend que cette région a toujours été une interface entre Maghreb et Machreq, ainsi que de culture.
Cet ouvrage se nourrit d’entretiens multiples effectués ces dernières années, avec des Libyens de tous horizons, mais également d’imprégnation de terrain et de confidences recueillies au fil d’amitiés suivies.

While scientists are still searching for treatments that will definitively cure cancer in all its forms, they have known for several years now that the most effective fight against this terrible disease lies in prevention. Numerous clinical studies have already shown that increased consumption of plant-based foods, including fruits and vegetables, is a key factor in reducing the risk of cancer. Even better, some foods have the ability to nip in the bud the microtumors that we all develop during our lives and that threaten to become cancerous.

Wall Street, the temple of financial speculation: no one knows its mafia-like underbelly, its scandalous secrets, and its enormous scams better than Jordan Belfort. Nicknamed, not so long ago, the Wolf of Wall Street, he had become one of the richest men in New York. Yet the FBI took an interest in him and arrested him. With a keen sense of narrative and rhythm, Belfort recounts his tragicomic story, from his beginnings as a trader to his downfall, mentioning along the way his decadent parties and drug abuse of all kinds. A rock star's life. By its very excess, this autobiography of the most demented of financial sharks will remain in the annals of history.
