Descartes' philosophy represented one of the most explicit statements of mind-body dualism in the history of philosophy. Its most familiar expression is found in the Meditations (1641) and in Part I of The Principles 0/ Philosophy (1644). However neither of these books provided a detailed discussion of dualism. The Meditations was primarily concerned with finding a foundation for reliable human knowledge, while the Principles attempted to provide an alternative metaphysical framework, in contrast with scholastic philosophy, within which natural philosophy or a scien tific explanation of natural phenomena could be developed. Thus neither book ex plicitly presents a Cartesian theory of the mind nor does either give a detailed account of how, if dualism were accepted, mind and body would interact. The task of articulating such a theory was left to two further works, only one of which was completed by Descartes, viz. the Treatise on Man (published posthumously in 1664). The Treatise began with the following sentence, describing the hypothetical human beings who were to be explained in that work: 'These human beings will be com posed, as we are, of a soul and a body; and, first of all, I must describe the body for you separately; then, also separately, the soul; and fmally I must show you how these two natures would have to be joined and united to constitute human beings resembling us.

This is a collection of twenty-two essays by an eminent philosopher, critic, and theorist that appeared between 1971 and 1992. The book interrogates the theory and practice of representation as it is carried out by both linguistic and graphic signs, and thus the complex relation between language and image, between perception and conception.

« Caulaincourt n’avait cessé sous l’Empire de prendre des notes chaque jour au bivouac ou dans le cabinet de Tuileries. Il se serait décidé à les mettre en forme entre 1822 et 1825. L’énorme documentation réunie quotiennement explique la valeur du témoignage du duc de Vicenze... le récit ne commence qu’à l’entrevue d’Erfurt. Il se poursuit avec la campagne de Russie et la retraite. C’est dans les chapitres VII-VIII et XI ( « En traîneau avec l’Empereur » ) souvent réédites que l’on dispose d’un document de premier ordre sur l’état d’esprit de Napoléon après le désastre de 1812. Quittant la Grande Armée, l’Empereur voyage en la seule compagnie de Caulaincourt de Smorgoni à Paris. Pendant ce long voyage, Napoléon se confie au Grand Ecuyer avec d’autant plus de franchise qu’il ignore que Caulaincourt prend des notes. « Puis Caulaincourt narre les péripéties de Congrès de Châtillon et y justifie son attitude. On notera d’importants développements sur l’entrée des Alliés à Paris, l’attitude de Napoléon, la défection de Marmont, l’abdication et la tentative de suicide de l’Empereur. Les mémoires s’arrêtent aux « Adieux de Fontainebleau » p 33 - Professeur Jean Tulard, Bibliographie Critique Sur Des Mémoires Sur Le Consulat Et L'Empire, Droz, Genève, 1971

La mise en place d’un logiciel sans défaut reste primordiale pour plusieurs domaines qui requièrent des applications dites de sécurité comme les transports. La réalisation d’un modèle formel est l’approche la plus efficace pour atteindre l'objectif du zéro défaut, que ce soit en termes de temps ou de maîtrise de la complexité. Ce modèle permet d’analyser et de vérifier le comportement d’un logiciel. Cet ouvrage présente la méthode B, une méthode formelle s’appuyant sur la preuve de propriétés qui, sur la base d’une spécification et de la notion de raffinement, permet d’aller jusqu’à la production automatique de code. Différents outils découlant de cette méthode ainsi que des exemples concrets d’utilisations industrielles de différentes tailles sont aussi exposés dans des domaines tels que l’avionique ou les systèmes manufacturiers.
