The Mandrake File

In a Kabul ravaged by violence and corruption, Murder Squad boss Osama Kandar still believes in integrity, a code of honour, and loyalty to old friends. But the apparent suicide of a businessman called Wali Wadi changes everything. As Kandar’s routine investigation starts to suggest murder, the Minister for Security attempts to foil his every move, motivating him even more to solve the alleged crime. Meanwhile, a Swiss-based secret organisation known as The Entity is doing everything in its power to terminate Kandar’s investigation, even if it means putting an end to his life and those of innocent civilians. Wali Wadi’s murderer must not be found, whatever the cost. At the same time, Entity analyst Nick Snee is looking for a man named Leonard Mandrake, who has information that The Entity is desperate for. When Snee discovers that Mandrake’s information is related to Wali Wadi’s death, he joins forces with Kandar to find out what everybody is after, and why so many lives are being destroyed in the wake of the Mandrake Affair. What they discover is far more important than either could have possibly imagined.

Régis Koetschet, ambassadeur de France à Kaboul de 2005 à 2008, tient dans la revue Les Nouvelles d’Afghanistan une rubrique intitulée « Un thé vert avec ». Des personnalités diverses – écrivains, archéologues, photographes, diplomates, mais aussi French doctors et réfugiés afghans – y racontent, avec sensibilité et érudition, « leur » Afghanistan. Ils se révèlent de passionnants « passeurs », dont les réflexions et les émotions éclairent une relation centenaire. Nourri d’imaginaire, porté par une histoire et une géographie des extrêmes, illustré par une population et un patrimoine exposeés à la violence, l’Afghanistan marque de façon indeélébile tous ceux qui y séjournent. Ce recueil puise à cette inspiration, littéraire, historique mais aussi politique, pour cheminer dans l’Afghanistan d’hier et d’aujourd’hui. Alors que la nuit des taleban est tombée sur Kaboul, ce recueil se veut aussi un rayon de lumière et le témoignage d’une fidélité.

Ce sont les deux pouvoirs les moins « parlementaires » de la Ve République, qui assurent la protection de ce régime... parlementaire. Le Président de la République et le Conseil constitutionnel marquent ainsi l'originalité de la Constitution du 4 octobre 1958 ! Mais, si le chef de l'État est sur un piédestal, les Sages, privés de légitimité démocratique, et limités dans une compétence d'attribution, ne sont pas au même niveau. Pourtant, loin d'un rapport de domination, la force de leur relation réside, justement, dans leur différence. Leurs compétences se rencontrent, sans jamais se confondre. Si les nominations - et l'élection présidentielle - montrent la nécessité d'...

A Fonte Da Juventude

A procura por uma fonte da juventude é uma busca que vem do século 16 - ou muito antes, se considerarmos relatos pouco conhecidos. Um deles conta que o poeta grego Homero já dizia que a velhice era “repugnante”. Outro, fala que Alexandre, o Grande, já procurava por um rio que revertesse o seu envelhecimento antes de morrer, por volta de 323 a.C. Apesar disso, o relato mais famoso narra a história do mês de março de 1513, quando, partindo de Porto Rico, o explorador espanhol Juan Ponce de Leon saiu em busca de uma ilha conhecida como “Bimimi”. Lá estaria uma suposta fonte mágica com águas rejuvenescedoras. Na Idade Média, inúmeras expedições teriam sido financiadas pela realeza em busca desse tesouro líquido. Até hoje, de certa forma, o mito contamina a ciência e as pesquisas com células-tronco, que prometem rejuvenescer tecidos em laboratório. Estamos entrando na 5ª Dimensão e uma nova luz se mostra no final do túnel, Ao ler este livro você ficará sabendo da juventude eterna que está a caminho de toda a humanidade.

'Deighton's best book ... an absorbingly exciting spy story that is also a fascinating exercise in might-have-been speculation' The New York Times Book Review It is 1941 and Germany has won the war. Britain is occupied, Churchill executed and the King imprisoned in the Tower of London. At Scotland Yard, Detective Inspector Archer tries to do his job and keep his head down. But when a body is found in a Mayfair flat, what at first appears to be a routine murder investigation sends him into a world of espionage, deceit and betrayal. 'Len Deighton is the Flaubert of contemporary thriller writers ... this is much the way things would have turned out if the Germans had won' The Times Literary Supplement

Les actes détachables dans le droit public français

La 4ème de couverture indique : "Au début du siècle dernier, le doyen Hauriou comparait la théorie des actes détachables à une espèce de machine infernale capable de décomposer " d'une façon méthodique, progressive et impitoyable tout devant elle ". Ces mots de l'illustre professeur de la Faculté de droit de l'Université de Toulouse reflètent toujours avec un grand réalisme le vrai sens de cette théorie inventée par le Conseil d'Etat, tout particulièrement si l'on examine son évolution et les caractères qu'elle présente aujourd'hui. En effet, les actes détachables se sont transformés avec le temps en une technique " passe-partout " du droit public français, à laquelle...
