A liveable future is possible - Confronting the threats to our survival
ISBN : 9781405974233
In this illuminating collection of interviews, Noam Chomsky shares his insights into the pressing challenges that face humanity. A Liveable Future is Possible addresses artificial intelligence and the potential for such programmes to surpass humans in cognitive awareness ; what lies ahead for a world engulfed in a deadly climate crisis ; the rise of neo-fascism internationally, and why we should organize across borders to confront it ; and the striking similarities between Trump and Biden's foreign policies. Noam Chomsky has been an incomparable model of moral clarity and intellectual courage during his many decades as a scholar, political activist and social critic. A Liveable Future is Possible is not only an urgent and informative book, it is also a call to action for those hoping to help carry the torch of one of history's greatest minds.
Salammbô
ISBN : 9780140443288
Après la première guerre punique, Carthage est ruinée et ne peut plus payer ses mercenaires, qui décident de se révolter. Au milieu des désordres et des massacres, Salammbô, la fille du suffète Hamilcar, s'éprend de Mâtho, le chef des rebelles... Entre romantisme et symbolisme, Flaubert fait surgir le mirage d'une cité disparue, d'un Orient barbare et rutilant, qui fascinera des générations de lecteurs.
