would be irresponsible to send travellers to a strange city without a map, it would be wrong to let defenceless kids navigate a world inhabited by parents, teachers, and other adults without an in-depth guide to how the older (although not necessarily smarter) half lives. This book explores the strangest and most mysterious facets of adult life, such as: What do teachers really talk about in the teacher’s lounge?

Et l'oeuvre de Jean-Paul Losier, un non-voyant, est impressionnante. Fils d'Acadie, cinquième d'une famille de treize enfants, Jean-Paul a surmonté tous les obstacles et ils étaient légions.

Pendant toutes ces années, Jean-Paul a cultivé la terre familiale avec audace, fierté et un success croissant.

théories. Puis il explique la relativité et son rôle dans notre vie quotidienne, pour ensuite analyser les théories de la relativité spéciale et de la relativité générale. Il poursuit en décrivant la façon dont ces idées étonnantes ont ouvert la voie à une toute nouvelle interprétation des forces de l'univers, de la puissance que recèle le noyau d'un atome au comportement des corps célestes qui peuplent l'espace. -- 4e de couvBy Francesco Marciuliano. 2012
