Fruit Phenolics
This fascinating work provides state-of-the-art information on phenolic compounds in fruits. Written in a concise format, it covers qualitative aspects by demonstrating the diversity of phenolic features in the major fruits of economic importance. It extensively covers the role played by phenolic compounds in the quality of fruits, with regard to organoleptic characteristics and also as a parameter involved in enzymatic browning and other modifications which take place during fruit processing. This easy-to-read resource particularly emphasizes beverages made from fruits and the use of phenolic compounds in the detection of adulteration. This reference is indispensable to researchers in fundamental fields (plant physiologists, phytochemists, biochemists) as well as engineers and technologists working on practical applications in fruits.

Western Esotericism
Widely received in France, this brief, comprehensive introduction to Western esotericism by the founder of the field is at last available in English. A historical and pedagogical guide, the book is written primarily for students and novices. In clear, precise language, author Antoine Faivre provides an overview of Western esoteric currents since late antiquity. The bulk of the book is laid out chronologically, from ancient and medieval sources (Alexandrian hermetism, gnosticism, neoplatonism), through the Renaissance up to the present time. Its coverage includes spiritual alchemy, Jewish and Christian Kabbalah, Christian theosophy, Rosicrucianism, Illuminism, 'mystical' Free-Masonry, the Occultist current, Theosophical and Anthroposophical Societies, the Traditionalist School, and 'esotericism' in contemporary initiatic societies and in New Religious Movements. Faivre explores how these currents are connected, and refers to where they appear in art and literature. The book concludes with an annotated bibliography, which makes it an essential resource for beginners and scholars alike.

Des élèves en souffrance d'écriture
Une recherche menée auprès de collégiens en difficulté relevant de l'enseignement spécialisé a permis d'approcher leur rapport à l'écrire. Leurs réticences mais aussi leurs potentialités en matière d'écriture ont pu être mises au jour. Cet ouvrage insiste sur le fait que les composantes contextuelles de la situation d'écriture sont aussi importantes que les connaissances conceptuelles du scripteur. Il suffit parfois de regarder autrement un écrit et son scripteur pour enclencher un processus de remédiation pouvant alléger la souffrance d'écrire.
Pédagogies nouvelles et compétences psychosociales
La réalisation d'une étude empirique a permis de mettre en avant la meilleure qualité de l'adaptation des étudiants issus d'écoles à pédagogies nouvelles lors de leur arrivée dans l'enseignement supérieur : ils présentent moins de symptômes anxieux et dépressifs, et obtiennent de meilleurs résultats scolaires au cours de la première année. Cet ouvrage apporte une contribution unique à la compréhension de l'apport des écoles différentes au devenir de leurs élèves.
