Title : History of the police in France - From the old regime to the present day - Jean-Marc Berlière, René Levy - Book Summary : Combining long and short-term history, this book offers the first comprehensive overview of the police over three centuries, covering their main missions: public order, criminal policing, and political policing. From the creation of the police lieutenancy by Colbert and Louis XIV in 1667 to the recent attachment of the national gendarmerie to the Ministry of the Interior, including the creation of the National Police by Vichy in the spring of 1941 and the attachment of the police prefecture to the National Police by de Gaulle in 1966, everything shows the extreme attention paid by all regimes to an instrument that seems inseparable from politics. Despite the common image of a purely state-based and centralized institution, the book seeks to describe a plural world, traversed by centuries-old competition between the private and the public, the local and the national (and even the international), the civil and the military, amateurs and professionals. It is the story of all these police forces, their delicate relationships with power, their reforms and their missions, the fantasies and contradictory feelings they arouse, which constitutes the subject of this unprecedented work. Jean-Marc Berlière, historian, professor emeritus at the University of Burgundy, and René Levy, sociologist and research director at the CNRS, both researchers at the Center for Sociological Research on Law and Penal Institutions (CESDIP) have been studying the subject of "police" for thirty years and have devoted numerous books and articles to it.

Title : The Kreutzer Sonata / The Devil / Marital Happiness - Leo Tolstoy - Book Summary : Love stories that fall apart, characters tormented by their feelings, attractions, and impulses, couples that tear each other apart until death: these are the subjects addressed by Tolstoy in these three stories. The author becomes a moralist and analyzes all the upheavals of relationships between men and women, ranging from desire seen as a drug to married life, experienced as a gradual disenchantment. Denouncing sensuality, debauchery, but also marriage "set up from scratch like a trap" (The Kreutzer Sonata), Tolstoy paints a picture of human relationships that is as fascinating as it is frightening: does a love story inevitably become a story of hate?

And when Ben Mears returns to "Salem," it is only to rediscover his childhood memories. But, very quickly, he will have to face the facts: strange, sinister things are happening there.

Title : Wolf - Nicolas Vanier - Book Summary : "This book is a hymn to nature and to wolves. Above all, it is a tribute to the Evens. A token of respect in the form of thanks." Nicolas Vanier Several years ago, Nicolas Vanier undertook the crazy project of crossing Siberia from south to north. On his way, he met the Evens, mountain nomads, travelers of the cold. From this exceptional encounter was born Wolf, a novel and then a film, a beautiful story that takes place in the heart of the Great Siberian North, between an ancestral world governed by the laws of nature and the modernity that threatens to sweep everything away. Nicolas Vanier reveals here the most beautiful images of the film: from the incredible photographs of a wolf, a reindeer, and a man traveling together to the spectacular views of the great herd of two thousand reindeer on the high ridges at sunset. In this magnificent illustrated book, the author also takes us back to the highlights of the filming of Loup, at -50°C in the heart of the wilderness, a human, animal and technical feat that gave birth to these images of unparalleled beauty.
