La crise actuelle se terminera un jour, laissant derrière elle d`innombrables victimes et quelques rares vainqueurs. Pourtant, il serait possible à chacun de nous d`en sortir dès maintenant en bien meilleur état que nous n`y sommes entrés. À condition d`en comprendre la logique et le cours, de se servir de connaissances nouvelles accumulées en maints domaines, de ne compter que sur soi, de se prendre au sérieux, de devenir un acteur de son propre destin et d`adopter d`audacieuses stratégies de survie personnelle. Mon propos n`est donc pas ici d`exposer un programme politique pour résoudre cette crise et toutes celles qui viendront, ni de vagues généralités moralisantes,...

This compelling novel has as its protagonist Cornelius Suttree, living alone and in exile in a disintegrating houseboat on the wrong side of the Tennessee River close by Knoxville. He stays at the edge of an outcast community inhabited by eccentrics, criminals and the poverty-stricken. Rising above the physical and human squalor around him, his detachment and wry humour enable him to survive dereliction and destitution with dignity. ``Suttree" contains a humour that is Faulknerian in its gentle wryness, and a freakish imaginative flair reminiscent of Flannery O`Connor` - "Times Literary Supplement". ``Suttree" marks McCarthy`s closest approach to autobiography and is probably the funniest and most unbearably sad of his books` - Stanley...

Why would an experienced pilot disregard his training and the rules of the aviation industry, leading to the deadliest airline crash in history? Why do we find it near-impossible to re-evaluate our first impressions of a person or situation, even when the evidence shows we were wrong? Discover the answers in "Sway".

Looking at irrational behaviour in fields as diverse as medicine, archaeology and the legal system, they chart the psychological undercurrents that influence even our...
