Being and the Screen
How digital technology is profoundly renewing our sense of what is real and how we perceive. Digital technologies are not just tools; they are structures of perception. They determine the way in which the world appears to us. For nearly half a century, technology has provided us with perceptions coming from an unknown world. The digital beings that emerge from our screens and our interfaces disrupt the notion of what we experience as real, thereby leading us to relearn how to perceive. In Being and the Screen, Stéphane Vial provides a philosophical analysis of technology in general, and of digital technologies in particular, that relies on the observation of experience (phenomenology) and t...
Electrochemical Surface Science: Basics and Applications
Electrochemical surface science (EC-SS) is the natural advancement of traditional surface science (where gas–vacuum/solid interfaces are studied) to liquid (solution)/electrified solid interfaces. Such a merging between two different disciplines—i.e., surface science (SS) and electrochemistry—officially advanced ca. three decades ago. The main characteristic of EC-SS versus electrochemistry is the reductionist approach undertaken, inherited from SS and aiming to understand the microscopic processes occurring at electrodes on the atomic level. A few of the exemplary keystone tools of EC-SS include EC-scanning probe microscopies, operando and in situ spectroscopies and electron microscop...
Digital Transformations in the Challenge of Activity and Work
TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES AND HUMAN RESOURCES SET Coordinated by Patrick Gilbert The accelerating pace of technological change (AI, cobots, immersive reality, connected objects, etc.) calls for a profound reexamination of how we conduct business. This requires new ways of thinking, acting, organizing and collaborating in our work. Faced with these challenges, the Human and Social Sciences have a leading role to play, alongside others, in designing, supporting and implementing these digital transformation projects. Their ambition is to participate in the development of innovative and empowering devices, that is to say, systems that are truly at the service of human beings and their activity, that empower these professionals to take action and that also provide occupational health services. This book takes a multidisciplinary look at the challenges of these digital transformations, making use of occupational psychology, ergonomics, sociology of uses, and management sciences. This viewpoint also helps provide epistemological, methodological and empirical insights to better understand and support the changes at work.
Electropolymerization
In recent years, great focus has been placed upon polymer thin films. These polymer thin films are important in many technological applications, ranging from coatings and adhesives to organic electronic devices, including sensors and detectors. Electrochemical polymerization is preferable, especially if the polymeric product is intended for use as polymer thin films, because electrogeneration allows fine control over the film thickness, an important parameter for fabrication of devices. Moreover, it was demonstrated that it is possible to modify the material properties by parameter control of the electrodeposition process. Electrochemistry is an excellent tool, not only for synthesis, but also for characterization and application of various types of materials. This book provides a timely overview of a current state of knowledge regarding the use of electropolymerization for new materials preparation, including conducting polymers and various possibilities of applications.

The Happiness of the Pursuit
Approaching his eightieth birthday, Ted Lamont relates an account of his life for his family that others may also enjoy. His story is sprinkled with "felicitous episodes," because as he puts it, "An alert traveler will observe some pretty funny happenings as he strides down the road of life." The New York Times review of The Ambassador from Wall Street, Lamont's first book, stated that it was a "well researched biography" that supplied "a wry and insightful wit," qualities that also infuse The Happiness of the Pursuit. The second son in a New York banking family, Lamont followed the conventional family path from a Park Avenue apartment to Exeter and Harvard, a short stint in the Navy, studen...
Miettes de thon à La Turballe
Juillet 1978 : un chef d’agence bancaire parachuté à La Turballe est assassiné sur la plage de Pen Bron. En cette période où la pêche est en crise, sa disparition n’affecte guère les Turballais. Mais voilà ! Son beau-père politicien joue de ses appuis et Anconi est prié d’aller enquêter sur place. Le commissaire se sent manipulé et part à contre cœur ! Heureusement, il sera logé chez l’habitant où il sera choyé. Bien des surprises l’attendront et il devra peut-être s’y reprendre à deux fois... À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Médecin hospitalier, Rémi Devallière a soigné les maux les plus graves ; désormais en retraite à Pornichet, il écrit, avec passion, se plaisant à choisir les mots les plus appropriés pour ses histoires. Nouer des intrigues n’est-il pas le pendant d’une démarche médicale bien conduite ? Si les instruments de l’exercice en sont différents, le plaisir de parvenir à un résultat satisfaisant est bien le même. Et obtenir les aveux du coupable ne relève-t-il pas du même défi que poser un bon diagnostic ?

Facebook et Twitter expliqués aux parents
On les accuse parfois d’être à l’origine de violences dans les collèges ou les lycées, voire d’être les principaux responsables des émeutes de l’été 2011 en Grande-Bretagne : les réseaux sociaux, Facebook et Twitter en tête, inquiètent, en particulier les parents, qui ne voient pas forcément d’un œil très enthousiaste le monde virtuel envahir la vie sociale de leurs enfants. Pourtant, qu’on le veuille ou non, le Web dit social, ce Web où l’on partage, commente, like, et retweete à volonté fait désormais partie de la vie des ados et des parents. Comment s’y retrouver dans cet univers numérique, qui donne naissance à de nouveaux usages, des nouvelles pratiqu...
