Title : The Westernization of the World - Serge Latouche - book Summary : At the end of a complex multi-century history, the West has transformed itself into an uncontrollable "social machine," certain of being universal because it is reproducible. Unlimited growth of goods, multiplication of communication networks, intensive urbanization, continual technical changes, breakdown of the basic family, emancipation of women, welfare state, forced schooling, parliamentary democracy: the Western model is convinced of being the best. It plays on the fascination it exerts on elites and peoples to export itself to the South and the East. The universalization of the model, however, encounters resistance and obstacles of all kinds. Its very triumph engenders ferments of decomposition that give rise to possible alternatives, which the author attempts to explore in this book.

Title : The Particle Horizon - Complexity and Elementarity in the Quantum Universe - Gilles Cohen-Tannoudji, Jean Pierre Baton - book Summary : What can we know about matter today? To answer this question, quantum physics seeks to determine the smallest constituent element of reality. What it discovers is no longer an object but a relationship, a relation. The most elementary particles cannot, in fact, be observed without interacting with the instruments that observe them. Observation itself irremediably modifies the particles. The ultimate constituents of matter are no longer material points, but an interaction. They belong to the highest energies and refer to the times of the primordial universe, when matter was an undifferentiated energy. The infinitely small therefore opens onto the infinitely complex and provides the keys to the universe - the infinitely large. Quantum physics finds these three infinities in the horizon of particles. The apparent horizon, observable one would say, that of experimentation which records the traces left by particles in the detector; the deep horizon, where theory postulates in a dizzying way the necessary existence of particles or interactive phenomena that experimentation cannot yet prove, or, on the contrary, seeks to understand the astonishing discoveries of an experiment that precedes it. Thus the key notion of horizon helps to think about the disrupted relationships between the objective and the subjective, the visible and the unobservable, in short, to redefine the concept of the subject of knowledge.

Title : Corporate Financial Management - Edith Ginglinger - book Summary : Most events experienced by the company have a financial translation; therefore, financial management occupies a privileged place within the management of the firm. In addition to the two types of decisions that the company faces, namely investment and financing of this, two functions are added: financial analysis and evaluation of the company as well as short-term financial management or cash management. These are therefore four points that constitute the parts of this memento intended for all students of economics or preparatory classes for business schools.

Title : J2EE - Deepak Alur, John Crupi - book Summary : Proven solutions for enterprise applications! For several years, J2EE (Java 2 Enterprise Edition) technology has been one of the standard platforms used for enterprise application development. Although it has matured and is a solid offering for developing and deploying enterprise applications, it is not without its challenges. Developers often confuse learning a technology with design methods based on that technology. In this book, three senior architects from the Sun Java Center, Sun's consulting organization, share their accumulated design experience and expertise with J2EE technology. This book focuses primarily on patterns, best practices, design strategies, and proven solutions using key J2EE technologies, including JSP (Java Server Pages), servlets, EJB (Enterprise JavaBeans), JMS (Java Messaging Service), JDBC (Java Database Connectivity), and JNDI (Java Naming and Directory Interface). The catalog, with its fifteen patterns and numerous strategies, documents best practices for implementing these technologies. Increase the productivity of your developments by using J2EE Design Patterns. Please note that some pages have been highlighted with highlighter or pencil, but this does not interfere with reading.
