The bestselling memoir by France's president, Emmanuel Macron. Some believe that our country is in decline, that the worst is yet to come, that our civilisation is withering away. That only isolation or civil strife are on our horizon. That to protect ourselves from the great transformations taking place around the globe, we should go back in time and apply the recipes of the last century. Others imagine that France can continue on a slow downward slide. That the game of political juggling - first the Left, then the Right - will allow us breathing space. The same faces and the same people who have been around for so long. I am convinced that they are all wrong. It is their models, their recipes, that have simply failed. France as a whole has not failed. In Revolution, Emmanuel Macron, the youngest president in the history of France, reveals his personal history and his inspirations, and discusses his vision of France and its future in a new world that is undergoing a 'great transformation' that has not been experienced since the invention of the printing press and the Renaissance. This is a remarkable book that seeks to lay the foundations for a new society - a compelling testimony and statement of values by an important political leader who has become the flag-bearer for a new kind of politics.

Thomas (Dylan O’Brien) and his fellow Gladers face their greatest challenge yet: searching for clues about the mysterious and powerful organization known as WCKD.

Their journey takes them to the Scorch, a desolate landscape filled with unimaginable obstacles.

Teaming up with resistance fighters, the Gladers take on WCKD’s vastly superior forces and uncover it’s shocking plans for them all.

While research on ultrasonics has been covered in earlier volumes of the Physical Acoustics series, Volumes 23 and 24 demonstrate the successful commercialization of devices and instruments arising from research in this area. These volumes will assist in the process of bringing research output into the marketplace to the benefit of customers.
The chapters are liberally illustrated with pictures of actual commercial objects which have been or are in use. Included are Medical Ultrasonic Diagnostics, Nondestructive Testing (NDT), Acoustic Emission, Process Control, Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) Devices, Frequency Control Devices, Research Instruments, Transducers, and Ultrasonic Microscopes. Also contained in the text are six essays covering technology transfer and commercialization.

The "Nations" are the "seventy nations": a metaphor which, in the Talmudic idiom, designates the whole of humanity surrounding Israel. In this major collection of essays, Levinas considers Judaism's uncertain relationship to European culture since the Enlightenment, problems of distance and integration. It also includes essays on Franz Rosenzweig and Moses Mendelssohn, and a discussion of central importance to Jewish philosophy in the context of general philosophy. This work brings to the fore the vital encounter between philosophy and Judaism, a hallmark of Levinas's thought.

Dodecahedron: The Story of the Second Stone is the third book in the Ocellus Series and is set billions of years before the events recorded in Ocellus: The Story of the Twelfth Stone. It is an epic fantasy-adventure aimed at age 14 upwards. On the planet Lemtor, following the 10,000-year religion wars, Tanun, a studious yet strong-minded boy of 17, together with thousands of others, lives in a vast protective dome. Society inside the dome is strictly controlled by the Elders, who have deemed the outside still poisonous. On his seventeenth birthday, Tanun finds a mislaid access ring to the forbidden section of the library. In there he finds and reads many of the banned books, but Enforcers catch him, and as punishment, the Elders banish him from the sphere with just a survival rucksack. While trekking through an ancient railway tunnel, he discovers a glassy-black oval-shaped stone with a dodecahedron carved on one face. Once through the tunnel, a friendly alien shapeshifter (Cassièl) confronts Tanun, saying he has searched for the Dodecahedron stone for trillions of years. He explains evil shapeshifters (the KimMorii) stole and hid the stone and will know it has been discovered. He warns Tanun the KimMorii will soon invade and if they take the stone from him by force, he will die. Cassièl also reveals there are, in fact, millions of domes and the outside is no longer poisonous. Meanwhile, Tanun's younger brother (Chyke) has escaped from the dome and caught up with Tanun. While Cassièl is leading the boys to a larger and friendlier dome, he reveals that Dodecahedron is the first to be found of thirteen special stones that form The Master Circle and he must retrieve all thirteen before the KimMorii re-establish The Master circle under their control, subjugating all universes. Tanun willingly offers Dodecahedron to Cassièl, but Cassièl discovers he cannot take it and has to return to his universe to find out why. Civil war between the dome alliances erupts, so after reaching the next dome, Tanun and Chyke have to train as warriors, not only to help protect the dome but also to keep Dodecahedron safe until Cassièl can retrieve it. Tanun trains in explosives and Chyke trains in espionage, but during their training, they both fall in love with their military trainer (Joor-Jen) which, apart from causing animosity between them, risks the safety of their new dome and each other. Because of his spying, Enforcers from the old dome kidnap Chyke and incarcerate him in a tiny cell. Although explicitly forbidden, Tanun, along with Joor-Jen, sets off to rescue him. Can Tanun and Joor-Jen successfully rescue Chyke? Can Tanun keep Dodecahedron safe until Cassièl solves the problem of retrieving it? Is it possible for Tanun and Chyke to resolve their differences over Joor-Jen? And will the KimMorii invasion change everything anyway? Dodecahedron is huge in scope and deep in emotion and takes the reader into alternative universes, dramatic battles, difficult relationships, and lasting friendships.
