Title : The Great Philosophers, Volume 3 - Kant - Karl Jaspers - book Summary : Kant: one of "those who found philosophy and never cease to generate it." A comprehensive synthesis of Kant's work, in which Jaspers shows how Kant crowns the philosophical tradition whose origin is in the work of Plato, while in turn being the basis of the philosophy of modern times. With Jaspers—and like Jaspers, himself an original thinker—Kant is understood as a fundamental articulation of Western thought.

Title : Universal Constants - Gilles Cohen-Tannoudji - book Summary : The universal constants are Newton's constant G, Boltzmann's constant k, the speed of light c, and Planck's constant h. These constants play a fundamental role in structuring physics, in organizing it into autonomous disciplines when considered separately, and in unifying it when two, three, or even all four are considered simultaneously. Physics may have introduced other constants throughout its history, but I believe that only G, k, c, and h play such a role. In my view, universal constants express the fundamental limitations of human knowledge, limits as inevitable, inalienable, but also shiftable as horizons.

Title : Strength training exercises in mathematics - From Terminale C to preparatory classes - Michel Miternique - book Summary : Most of the exercises covered in this book can be solved using the knowledge of the final year of science – this does not mean that they are applications of the course. Some have been the subject of oral tests in the competitive examinations for major scientific or business schools or have been set in the general mathematics competition, others are exercises from the CAPES oral examination. This book is aimed at students considering studies where mathematics plays an important role. The authors added theoretical definitions of continuity and limits, which are not included in the secondary school curriculum but are used in higher education. They also illustrated these definitions with appropriate exercises. The authors have introduced some rudiments of logic in order to familiarize readers with the use of quantifiers.

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 : Fragments and Aphorisms - Friedrich Nietzsche - book Summary : Nietzsche expressed himself on everything, with scathing phrases and lapidary invectives. Incisive, ferocious, and sometimes very poetic, his writings have lost none of their power and demonstrate an exceptional freedom of thought. Presented by Louis Van Delft, professor at the University of Paris-X, this book is intended as a lively and accessible introduction to the work of a very great philosopher who has not finished shaking our most intimate convictions, whether social, political, familial or religious...

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 : UML through practice - Case studies and corrected exercises - Pascal Roques - book Summary : Senior consultant and trainer at Valtech, Pascal Roques has more than 13 years of experience in object modeling with OMT then UML. After working for 9 years at Verilog, where he was responsible for training and consulting on modeling techniques and tools (SADT then OMT), he now regularly participates in missions of analysis and design of complex systems, and the implementation of an integrated modeling approach in the development process. Pascal Roques is today a driving force in the dissemination of Valtech know-how, through seminars and conferences. He is also the author of the excellent book UML in action (Eyrolles, 2000).

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.

Title : Typhoon - Joseph Conrad - book Summary : Stop!" roared Mr. Rout. No one—not even Captain MacWhirr, who, alone on deck, had seen a white line of foam advancing, so high that he could hardly believe his eyes—no one was ever to know what the steepness of that wave had been, and the frightful depth of the chasm that the hurricane had dug behind the moving wall of water. It was running to meet the ship; and the Nan-Shan, then, stopping as if to gird up its loins, raised its bows, then jumped. The flames of all the lamps drooped, darkening the engine room; one of them went out. With a heart-rending crash, a furious and whirling tumult, tons of water fell on the deck..."
