Understanding Business Ecosystems

How Firms Succeed in the New World of Convergence?

By: Soumaya Ben Letaifa,Anne Gratacap,Thierry Isckia

Understanding Business Ecosystems: How Firms Succeed in the New World of Convergence? builds on strategic management and innovation management academic contributions to better understand theoretical and empirical challenges of business ecosystems. Even if the concept of business ecosystem was coined in 1993, it will lie fallow during more than ten years before gaining scholars’ interest. Managers will however recognize the relevance of this concept as it grasps the complexity of their business reality in terms of new collaborative and innovative strategies. Thus, the main purpose of this book is twofold. On the one hand, the objective is to identify the epistemological and theoretical fundamentals of business ecosystems, and on the other hand, the purpose is to analyse the various managerial challenges. This volume analyses in particular the issues of knowledge management, coopetition strategies, platforms, governance, etc. Understanding Business Ecosystems: How Firms Succeed in the New World of Convergence? is finally a key reference book that innovates by integrating for the first time well known French speaking scholars’ contributions from the strategy and innovation management fields.

The Political Economy of Decentralization in Sub-Saharan Africa

A New Implementation Model in Burkina Faso, Ghana, Kenya, and Senegal

By: Bernard Dafflon,Thierry Madies

For two decades now, experiences in decentralization and federalization have been in progress in many countries, particularly in Sub Saharan Africa. How can these processes be understood and improved? Focusing on four Sub-Saharan countries (Burkina Faso, Ghana, Kenya and Senegal), this volume applies an original approach to address such questions. No attempt is made to transpose an ideal Western model - which does not exist. Here, decentralization is viewed as a sequential process, implying choices that are the sole responsibility of the country concerned. For each of the four countries, the authors provide a diagnosis of how decentralization is organized in practice and compare this with the institutional architecture adopted. This analysis of the gaps separating what is formally targeted and what has been achieved on the ground suggests possible directions for reform. A guide for analyzing decentralized policies is proposed, which is useful to help identify the issues at stake, point out stumbling blocks and ensure the coherence of decisions on decentralization.

Differential Equations Driven by Rough Paths

Ecole d’Eté de Probabilités de Saint-Flour XXXIV-2004

By: Terry J. Lyons,Michael J. Caruana,Thierry Lévy

Each year young mathematicians congregate in Saint Flour, France, and listen to extended lecture courses on new topics in Probability Theory. The goal of these notes, representing a course given by Terry Lyons in 2004, is to provide a straightforward and self supporting but minimalist account of the key results forming the foundation of the theory of rough paths.

Dynamic Multilevel Methods and the Numerical Simulation of Turbulence

By: Thierry Dubois,François Jauberteau,Roger Temam

This book describes the implementation of multilevel methods in a dynamical context, with application to the numerical simulation of turbulent flows. The general ideas for the algorithms presented stem from dynamical systems theory and are based on the decomposition of the unknown function into two or more arrays corresponding to different scales in the Fourier space. This timely monograph should appeal to graduate students and researchers alike, providing a background for applied mathematicians as well as engineers.

The World of André Le Nôtre

By: Thierry Mariage

But as Thierry Mariage makes clear in this detailed and lucid book, the garden style that Le Notre brought to perfection need not be seen in opposition to the later "English" one; rather, he claims, they represent two points along a continuum that exists between the natural and cultural worlds.

Young Sun, Early Earth and the Origins of Life

Lessons for Astrobiology

By: Muriel Gargaud,Hervé Martin,Purificación López-García,Thierry Montmerle,Robert Pascal

- How did the Sun come into existence? - How was the Earth formed? - How long has Earth been the way it is now, with its combination of oceans and continents? - How do you define “life”? - How did the first life forms emerge? - What conditions made it possible for living things to evolve? All these questions are answered in this colourful textbook addressing undergraduate students in "Origins of Life" courses and the scientifically interested public. The authors take the reader on an amazing voyage through time, beginning five thousand million years ago in a cloud of interstellar dust and ending five hundred million years ago, when the living world that we see today was finally formed. A chapter on exoplanets provides an overview of the search for planets outside the solar system, especially for habitable ones. The appendix closes the book with a glossary, a bibliography of further readings and a summary of the Origins of the Earth and life in fourteen boxes.

Playing with Maps: Cartographic Games in Western Culture

By: Adrian Seville,Thierry Depaulis,Geert H. Bekkering

This is the first serious book wholly devoted to games based on maps. The authors are experts in their respective fields: board games, playing cards and dissected puzzles. They bring an informed historical approach to the development and diffusion of these games up to about the beginning of the twentieth century, including games from Western Europe and America in all their intriguing variety. This book is an essential reference source for those wishing to research this neglected area, while those new to the field will be pleasantly surprised at the interesting and unusual maps that these games exploit.

The First Life of Bernard of Clairvaux

By: William of Saint-Thierry,Arnold of Bonneval,Geoffrey of Auxerre

The First Life of Bernard of Clairvaux, traditionally known as the Vita Prima, originated to prepare the case for canonization of Bernard, first abbot of Clairvaux. The work was begun by William of Saint-Thierry, continued by Arnold of Bonneval, and completed by Geoffrey of Auxerre. When the initial case put forth for Bernard was rejected by Innocent II, Geoffrey undertook a revision of the original vita (Recension A) and submitted another version (Recension B) to Pope Alexander III, who declared Bernard a saint in 1174. This work emphasizes the deep love in which Bernard was held during his life by his monks and the people of France and Italy as well as his role as a powerful public figure. This book contains the first English translation of Recension B, drawn from what is apparently the only manuscript of the work found today in a Cistercian monastery, Mount Saint Bernard Abbey. The introduction begins with the story of how this manuscript came to Mount Saint Bernard, so fixing this translation of the Vita prima within Cistercian life from the twelfth century to today.

Long Island, Baby

By: Thierry Clermont

Long Island, c’est l’anti Manhattan. De Coney Island au phare de Montauk, cette langue de terre ne recèle pas moins de lieux mythiques, d’une beauté sauvage, qui raconte une autre Amérique, celle que le narrateur de ce roman nous emmène explorer. C’est là que vit son frère Charlie, tombé amoureux d’une jeune Estonienne, Anastasia, qu’il veut épouser. Jamaica Station, Little Odessa, Oyster Bay. Theodore Roosevelt, Woody Guthrie, Lou Reed. Comme dans une ballade au refrain entêtant, les noms des hommes et des lieux s’attardent, les fantômes se réveillent, les ports déserts reprennent vie, embarquant le lecteur pour un voyage dans le temps et les espaces. L’air y est saturé d’embruns, de visages taiseux, de vies âpres, de destins immigrés. Et comme par un magnétisme sourd, cette île si singulière réconcilie les existences qui s’étaient cabossées. Les deux frères éloignés se retrouvent enfin, le lecteur est bientôt gagné par cette atmosphère onirique, apaisante, vivifiante. Les mots prennent le large.
