Shred Wallace's Oblivion, Pynchon's V , Leyner's Sugar Frosted Nutsack* and Ou ednik's Instant Propice. Gather in a 2 Gallon Ziplocr Brand Freezer Bag. Shake, half-bake. And here's this subtly crusted bilingual English/French-Canadian novel entitled Kissing Number. Keywords? Sure! Pseudo-thermodynamics. Limerence. High finance as an art form. Cuban cattlehead refrigerators. Why you, the well-advised, polymath reader ought to spend hard-earned money on this book on the sole basis of self-proclaimed cross-references and a few keywords is beyond reason. To tell you the truth, you're currently holding a pure akratic object in your hands, yet reasonably priced at single-digit dollars and 99 cents. Good luck with that one. * This novel by Leyner isn't yet published as I go to press, the influence here being non-causal, making the two books entangled in a quantum mechanical sense. Can't wait to see how The Sugar Frosted Nutsack turns out as it will instantly determine the opposite content of KN. Exciting!!! Later note: Leyner's book just came out a minute ago. Pure genius. Well, so much for this book! Put it back on the shelf, now.

Tourist Destinations According to Stakeholder Strategies

From Clusters to Local Tourist Systems

By: Pierre Louart,Jérôme Piriou,Philippe Violier

Tourist destinations are subject to the strategies and interactions of the people who reside in them, with complementary and sometimes conflicting interests. To ensure that these destinations remain competitive, Destination Management Organizations (DMOs) are tasked with stimulating cooperation between all partners (independents, organizations, networks). Tourist Destinations According to Stakeholder Strategies is based on a series of case studies that are analyzed and discussed from a dual geographical and managerial perspective. This enables us to extract operational typologies and propose recommendations for actors in the tourism sector. The authors have opted for an original and innovative name for the object of study, "Localized Tourism Systems" (LTS), thus emphasizing the triple aim of territorialization, tourism activities and actors that interact together in collective projects.

Adam Smith in Toulouse and Occitania

The Unknown Years

By: Alain Alcouffe,Philippe Massot-Bordenave

This book provides substantial background on what Adam Smith did during his stay in Toulouse and the Languedoc region of France during the 18th century. This is a crucial period in Smith’s life for at least two reasons: i) it is during this time that Smith began to work on The Wealth of Nations; and ii) it is generally understood that although some of his ideas about political economy were already formed before his trip, his encounters with many French political economists during his time in France helped him to further develop them. As such, this book provides a rich resource to further understanding Smith's world, his travel experiences and the people he met during this time and situates these within the broader context of Smith's life as a whole, and within the British aristocracy. This work will be of value to students and researchers in the history of economic thought, travel studies and Scottish studies.

Haiti: The Tumultuous History - From Pearl of the Caribbean to Broken Nation

By: Philippe Girard

Why has Haiti been plagued by so many woes? Why have multiple U.S. efforts to create a stable democracy in Haiti failed so spectacularly? Philippe Girard answers these and other questions, examining how colonialism and slavery have left a legacy of racial tension, both within Haiti and internationally; Haitians remain deeply suspicious of white foriegners' motives, many of whom doubt Hatians' ability to govern themselves. He also examines how Haiti's current political instability is merely a continuation of political strife that began during the War of Independence (1791-1804). Finally, Haiti: The Tumultuous History, Girard explores poverty's devastating impact on contemporary Haiti and argues that Haitians--particularly home-grown dictators--bear a big share of the responsibility for their nation's troubles.
