My week Harry Potter: The Deathly Hollows and the movie

I was in the FNAC (a big french store for books, disks, computers...), and I did not resist to buy the last Harry Potter : “Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows”. The intrigue puts a little time to set up itself, but one is glad finally to know the fate of Harry Potter. Poor Albus sees its will have put a little at evil but the final he will be rehabilitated… As a conclusion, it is not great literature (good it is true it is written in English…) but that slackens… On the other hand I went to see the same week : “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”

there too the intrigue puts much time to set up itself… certain elements overlooked and others are presented in an unmethodical way! I am fan of the 4 first opus, where the dream and fairyhood are omnipresent… I know the last Harry Potter want to be much darker as Voldemort seizes the power… But that does not want to say that the film must all sacrifice to the darkness. In conclusion, I was very disappointed! A good film: to see in DVD not more

Fast Food Nation

This is the spookiest book I have ever read! Do you know E.coli 0157:H7? This is a bacteria, a stain of Escherichia coli. Everyone has some non pathogenic stain of Escherichia coli. But if you have E.coli 0157:H7, you should got to the hospital as soon as possible. Actually this stain can be lethal, it leads to kidneys disease... Why I speak about E.coli 0157:H7? Because I am reading the excellent book of Eric Schlosser: "Fast Food Nation". In this book you learn how big firms jeopardize the health of all the American nation... They try to make as much money as possible and the easiest way to do that is to give money to Congress in order it forgets to control what Fast Food are doing and what happens in slaughterhouse. You will never eat an hamburger after this book:


A best seller!

Have you ever heard of Feynman? Feynman is one of the youngest Nobel Price in physics. He is the father of the quantum computer. Instead of being a boring teacher, Feynman is certainly the greatest teacher of physics, who has ever lived. If you want to understand something to the quantum mechanics with a book which do not begin with a math formula read the book below. Every good teacher has ever read Feynman's lessons or should! All student in physics shoul read this book, each chapter is like a novel, you read a book of Feynman like an Harry Pother.

Wealth of the World, Poverty of Nations

I have just finished this book again, I say "again" because I have already read it 3 times, over 3 years? It is a small pocket book but all the essential ideas to understand the phenomenon of globalization are there.





it is read almost like a novel. The author Daniel Cohen makes us cross all the currents of thought of economic sciences, from Smith to Ricardo, and Keynes, all the authors of economic sciences are present. This book is full of references? You will find the theory of the O-Ring ring there, the theory of the four quarters of Reich, the reflexions on the marriage of today in this new dynamics. I advise it to you sincerely. You will understand finally the mechanisms of the globalization and why one should not believe the politicians who exploit the fear of the people to try to gain votes. Globalization is a fact and all the nations can benefit from it: if a redistribution of the profits is correctly made inside the country? All this depends on the strength and the integrity of our policies.
