Les cabinets "Big Four" (KPMG, Ernst and Young, PricewaterhouseCoopers et Deloitte) sont les quatre plus grands groupes de conseil et d'audit au monde, proposant une multitude de services aux entreprises. Ils occupent une place centrale dans le monde économique et constituent une carte de visite prestigieuse permettant d'accélérer les carrières de ceux qui y travaillent. Analyser leur fonctionnement, ainsi que les valeurs que partagent leurs membres, offre un aperçu de l'éthique de cette élite des affaires dont le succès auprès des jeunes recrues ne se dément pas. Ces cabinets sont marqués par une vie courtisane très forte et les salariés les rejoignent moins par référence au métier que par attirance pour l'idée élitiste de compétition. Le passage par un de ces cabinets a une fonction de distinction sociale qui donne aux individus le sentiment d'appartenir à une élite sélective : le goût du classement, la capacité à résister au stress, à la fatigue, à une charge de travail colossale sont des signes de supériorité qui définissent la valeur de l'expérience. Le travail tend donc à être vécu comme un sport où, à défaut de convictions personnelles sur l'utilité du métier, l'important est de gagner.

They claim to want me back but I’m not the woman they used to know.Promises of change and a declaration of loyalty do not sway me.Sensual moments and intimate touches do not blind me.If they want my heart, they will have to earn it... maybe even risk their lives for it.With what information I’ve uncovered, we all may have to risk something in order to stop the plan the old queen has put in motion. With enemies from my past emerging and their alliance with the queen revealed, I’m going to need people on my side to help me bring down the evil afoot. But to do that, I’ll have to do what one thing my mates ask of me: To put some trust in them.

In a fit of drunken anger, Michael Henchard sells his wife and baby daughter for five guineas at a country fair. Over the course of the following years, he manages to establish himself as a respected and prosperous pillar of the community of Casterbridge, but behind his success there always lurk the shameful secret of his past and a personality prone to self-destructive pride and temper. Subtitled 'A Story of a Man of Character', Hardy's powerful and sympathetic study of the heroic but deeply flawed Henchard is also an intensely dramatic work, tragically played out against the vivid backdrop of a close-knit Dorsetshire town.

<p><p>Fabulous animals, specters from the shadow world, nature spirits, and sacred beings&#58; these are the monstrous, marvelous, and mythic creatures that have come down to us in folklore and legend.

Coming back to the nest of his family home in Russia after years of fruitless endeavours away from his roots, Lavretsky decides to turn his back on the vacuous salons of Paris and his frivolous and unfaithful wife Varvara Pavlovna. On his return he meets Liza, the daughter of one of his cousins, whom he had known when they were children and who rekindles in him long-smothered feelings of love. News of Varvara's death arrive from France, offering Lavretsky the prospect of a new life, but a cruel twist threatens to shatter his dreams and forces him to re-evaluate his plans. Hailed as a masterpiece of Russian literature, A Nest of the Gentry Turgenev's most successful and widely read novel, here presented in a new translation by Michael Pursglove deals with the personal struggles of the individual in a period of turbulent social change.

A fun and fabulous take on the art of making mistakes. Erik Kessels celebrates imperfection and failure and shows why they are an essential part of the creative process. Failed it! celebrates the power of mistakes and shows how they can enrich the creative process. This is part photobook and part guide to loosening up and making mistakes to take the fear out of failure and encourage experimentation. It showcases the best and most hilarious examples of imperfection and failure across a broad range of creative forms, including art, design, photography, architecture and product design, to inspire and encourage creatives to embrace and celebrate their mistakes. We live in an era when everyone is striving for perfection and we have become afraid of failure, which limits our potential. Mistakes help us find new ways of thinking and innovative solutions, and failures can change our perceptions and open up new ways of looking things. This book transforms mistakes from something to be embarrassed about into a cause for celebration. It includes over 150 visual examples drawn from Kessels personal collection of artworks and found photographs, along with tips, quotes, anecdotes and wisdom for celebrating with failure. To quote Kessels: 'the ubiquity of Apple + Z, means that we can literally undo any mistake before it has had time to breathe, be considered and perhaps evolve into something else: a fascinating, strange, provocative or even original piece of work. This book asks readers to embrace their fuck-ups, learn from them and celebrate their tawdry glory'.

Le regard de scientifiques sur l'extraordinaire relation entre l'homme et l'animal entre fascination, peur et exploitation. Chiens, chats, chevaux, vaches, cochons... À quand remonte la domestication ? Quelle place occupent les animaux sauvages ou méconnus ? Comment expliquer la menace d'extinction qui plane sur certaines espèces ? Quels sont ces animaux sentinelles susceptibles d'anticiper l'émergence de nouvelles maladies infectieuses ? L'humanité a toujours entretenu une relation complexe avec l'animal. C'est ce lien, qui s'est intensifié lors de la révolution Néolithique par la domestication de certaines espèces et qui n'a cessé d'évoluer au fil des époques et des cultures, que la science cherche aujourd'hui à explorer. L'agriculture et l'élevage ont en effet constitué la première mise à distance entre le sauvage et le domestique. Avec la mécanisation et les élevages intensifs, les animaux sont devenus des machines vivantes à la fois optimisées et contrôlées en raison de problèmes sanitaires. Quant aux animaux sauvages, leurs espaces se sont réduits, et ils ont été de plus en plus surveillés par l'homme pour leur conservation ou pour leurs impacts réels ou supposés sur la santé et le bien-être humains. L'espèce humaine s'inspire de l'animal depuis les origines mais elle a souvent entre tenu un rapport de supériorité avec lui. Comment aujourd'hui repenser cette rela tion trop souvent conçue comme utilitariste ? Peut-être en s'interrogeant sur la place de l'humain comme " vivant parmi les vivants ". Cette nouvelle approche passe par la reconnaissance du juste apport de l'animal dans de nombreux domaines. Elle permet de mesurer combien humains et animaux ont évolué de concert en s'appor tant savoirs et connaissances. Aujourd'hui, la crise sanitaire nous interroge sur les mécanismes de l'émergence de nouveaux agents infectieux issus de la faune sauvage, mais aussi plus généralement sur les rapports entre les animaux et les humains. Un lien qu'il nous appartient de décrypter pour inventer une relation plus équilibrée, permettant de dessiner les contours d'un nouveau pacte avec l'animal.

EDITORIAL REVIEW: Aliens - Moties - were first contacted in AD3017 in the region of space known as the Coalsack. The eponymous mote in his eye, which has winked out, much to the distress of pious Himmists, just might have been Motie laser light. It might even indicate the position of their home planet.

Praised forits clarity of presentation and accessibility, Introduction to Modern Virology has been a successful student text for over 30 years. It provides a broad introduction to virology, which includes the nature of viruses, the interaction of viruses with their hosts and the consequences of those interactions that lead to the diseases we see. This new edition contains a number of important changes and innovations including: The consideration of immunology now covers two chapters, one on innate immunity and the other on adaptive immunity, reflecting the explosion in knowledge of viral interactions with these systems. The coverage of vaccines and antivirals has been expanded and separated into two new chapters to reflect the importance of these approaches to prevention and treatment. Virus infections in humans are considered in more detail with new chapters on viral hepatitis, influenza, vector-borne diseases, and exotic and emerging viral infections, complementing an updated chapter on HIV. The final section includes three new chapters on the broader aspects of the influence of viruses on our lives, focussing on the economic impact of virus infections, the ways we can use viruses in clinical and other spheres, and the impact that viruses have on the planet and almost every aspect of our lives. A good basic understanding of viruses is important for generalists and specialists alike. The aim of this book is to make such understanding as accessible as possible, allowing students across the biosciences spectrum to improve their knowledge of these fascinating entities.

<p><p>The essays in <I>Beyond the Stars 5</I> examine a small but important sample of the conventional themes and ideologies treated in popular film. Among the topics covered are family, social class, gender roles, politics, warfare, hedonism, and the 1960s.<p></p> <h3>Library Journal</h3> <p>This is the final volume in a series presenting new scholarship on American movie conventions deemed worthy of study because they are markers or indicators of the belief system of the culture that produces the films. The more commonplace a convention, the more deeply embedded it likely is in society's unconscious assumptions. Compared with the first four series entries, however, this particular volume has little new to sayeven the editors commented on the paucity of manuscripts submitted compared with the volumes on stock characters or stock plot conventions. Howard Good's piece on the success myth in baseball biopics, William Brigham's on the unrealistic Hollywood portrayals of the homeless, and Martin F. Norden's article on the physically disabled in films are interesting, but most of the pieces lack freshness.

Amazon.com Review Nobody but Philip K. Dick could so successfully combine SF comedy with the unease of reality gone wrong, shifting underfoot like quicksand. Besides grisly ideas like funeral parlors where you swap gossip for the advice of the frozen dead, Ubik (1969) offers such deadpan farce as a moneyless character's attack on the robot apartment door that demands a five-cent toll: "I'll sue you," the door said as the first screw fell out. Joe Chip said, "I've never been sued by a door. But I guess I can live through it." Chip works for Glen Runciter's anti-psi security agency, which hires out its talents to block telepathic snooping and paranormal dirty tricks. When its special team tackles a big job on the Moon, something goes terribly wrong. Runciter is killed, it seems--but messages from him now appear on toilet walls, traffic tickets, or product labels. Meanwhile, fragments of reality are timeslipping into past versions: Joe Chip's beloved stereo system reverts to a hand-cranked 78 player with bamboo needles. Why does Runciter's face appear on U.S. coins? Why the repeated ads for a hard-to-find universal panacea called Ubik ("safe when taken as directed")? The true, chilling state of affairs slowly becomes clear, though the villain isn't who Joe Chip thinks. And this is Dick country, where final truths are never quite final and--with the help of Ubik--the reality/illusion balance can still be tilted the other way. --David Langford, Amazon.co.uk Review SALES POINTS 'One of the most original practitioners writing any kind of fiction, Dick made most of the European avant-garde seem like navel-gazers in a cul-de-sac' - Sunday Times 'My literary hero' -- Fay Weldon 'For everyone lost in the endlessly multiplicating realities of the modern world, remember: Philip K. Dick got there first' -- Terry Gilliam Fiction,Science Fiction,SciFi-Masterwork,General

"Our thoughts are meaningful. We think about things in the outside world; how can that be so? This is one of the deepest questions in contemporary philosophy. Ever since the 'cognitive revolution', states with meaning-mental representations-have been the key explanatory construct of the cognitive sciences. But there is still no widely accepted theory of how mental representations get their meaning. Powerful new methods in cognitive neuroscience can now reveal information processing in the brain in unprecedented detail. They show how the brain performs complex calculations on neural representations. Drawing on this cutting-edge research, Nicholas Shea uses a series of case studies from the cognitive sciences to develop a naturalistic account of the nature of mental representation. His approach is distinctive in focusing firmly on the 'subpersonal' representations that pervade so much of cognitive science. The diversity and depth of the case studies, illustrated by numerous figures, make this book unlike any previous treatment. It is important reading for philosophers of psychology and philosophers of mind, and of considerable interest to researchers throughout the cognitive sciences."

<P>First published in 1927, Deluge is one of the most famous of the English catastrophe novels. Beautifully written and action packed—RKO Radio Pictures even filmed this story—the novel depicts a flood so severe that it destroys modern civilization, leaving the few survivors to adapt to the rigors of the natural world. Like other English writers responding to the trauma of World War I, Sydney Fowler Wright expresses a loathing of the worst aspects of industrialization. The flood, in his view, becomes an opportunity for the remaking of society. The protagonists soon realize that civilization and technology have divorced them from the knowledge and skills necessary for survival. Released from their over-reliance on social regulation, they struggle to overcome their own brutality to develop a new sense of community. For over 75 years readers have praised this book for its style and wisdom, and debated the meaning of its controversial ending. This Wesleyan edition is graced with an excellent introduction and annotations by leading science fiction scholar Brian Stableford.</P>

Nineteen Eighty-Four: A Novel, often referred to as 1984, is a dystopian social science fiction novel by the English novelist George Orwell (the pen name of Eric Arthur Blair). It was published on 8 June 1949 by Secker & Warburg as Orwell's ninth and final book completed in his lifetime. Thematically, Nineteen Eighty-Four centres on the consequences of totalitarianism, mass surveillance, and repressive regimentation of persons and behaviours within society. Orwell, himself a democratic socialist, modelled the authoritarian government in the novel after Stalinist Russia. More broadly, the novel examines the role of truth and facts within politics and the ways in which they are manipulated. ---------- Also contained in: [Novels (Animal Farm / Burmese Days / Clergyman's Daughter / Coming Up for Air / Keep the Aspidistra Flying / Nineteen Eighty-Four)](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL1168045W) [Novels (Animal Farm / Nineteen Eighty-Four)](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL1167981W) [Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four: Text, Sources, Criticism](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL1168095W)

La falta de conocimiento objetivo -la ignorancia científica o asofía- es el problema más extendido de nuestra época. Quien desconoce la metodología de la ciencia, careciendo de discernimiento y pensamiento crítico no puede navegar adecuadamente la compleja sociedad contemporánea -totalmente basada en la ciencia- quedando a merced de la manipulación por parte de comerciantes inescrupulosos, políticos corruptos y conspiraciones totalitarias, sucumbiendo incluso a consejos bienintencionados pero erróneos dados por amigos, terapeutas o consejeros financieros.Quien carece hoy de verdadero conocimiento objetivo, está en la misma situación de desventaja que una persona analfabeta del siglo pasado.Este hipertexto provee una visión general de las ideas y conceptos relacionados con el método científico, sus principios fundamentales, y su vigorosa evolución, con énfasis en la aplicación práctica del pensamiento crítico y el conocimiento objetivo para desenvolverse con éxito en el mundo moderno. Ha sido dicho que solo la verdad nos hará libres, este es pues un método para arribar a la verdad, y con ello, a la libertad.

This is the most systematic discussion of semiotics yet published. - "Choice". "A bravura performance..." - Thomas Sebeok. "Mapping a discipline as new as semiotics is more than an exercise in compilation and description. It involves substantive choices regarding the taxonomy and dimensions of the filed as a whole. N'th succeeds admirably in this formidable undertaking." - "Library Journal". "N'th's handbook is an outstanding encyclopedia that provides first-rate information on many facets of sign-related studies, research results, and applications." - "Social Sciences in General". "N'th's book is a remarkable survey of the incredibly broad field of semiotics...For those who desire a comprehensive survey of this diverse field, N'th's book is unsurpassed." - "Library Quarterly". N'th's ambitious work covers the field of semiotics from Aesthetics to Zoosemiotics. Organized in eight parts, it contains sixty-five encyclopedic articles, a consolidated bibliography of almost 3,000 titles, an index of names, and an index of terms.
