Allen Farrington and Sacha Meyers chart a crash course through the pitfalls of modern economic theory and the world's fiat money system with a hopeful destination in Bitcoin is Venice. What if a global, digital, sound, open-source, programmable currency was monetizing from absolute zero? How might our conception of capital change? What novel forms of capital formation and economic production will become possible? How might they affect the design of social institutions? Can Bitcoin bring about a new Renaissance? With Farrington and Meyers, the discussion is as revolutionary as the answers.

Each of the twelve main meridians stand for a fundamental life principle and by examining them, we can begin a journey towards better health- as well as freedom and contentment. Mike Mandl uses his own wit and humour to explore the life principles of the meridians and offers a toolbox for self-diagnostic purposes, demonstrating how to strengthen these principles, correct imbalances, and keep in harmony with yourself through daily observation and maintenance.

Ayotte veut se terrer au chalet de l’oncle de Mailloux, à Rivière-à-Pierre, car, lors d’une mission pour son clan, il a abattu par erreur un innocent père de famille plutôt qu’un membre d’un gang rival.

Johannes Cabal and his rather inexact powers of necromancy are back once more. This time, his talents are purchased by the Fear Institute as they hunt for the phobic animus - the embodiment of fear. The three institute members, led by Cabal and his silver key, enter the Dreamlands and find themselves pursued by walking trees plagued with giant ticks, stone men that patrol the ruins of their castles, cats that feed on human flesh, and phobias that torment and devastate.

In The Bushido of Bitcoin I distill lessons from experience and the great stories of the past into a playbook for the modern warrior: for the new elite to channel their power, wealth and influence with Character. It combines insights from powerful military cultures with the great thinkers of all time: Nitobe, Nietzsche, Spengler and Hoppe; Feudalism, Christianity and Austrian Economics. The book focuses on virtue in action – not morality. My goal is to show you how the great and noble behave. All warrior cultures lived by codes of virtue, and it's time we found ours.

Cet ouvrage traite de l'absence des pères et du silence quiles isole de leurs fils. Pourquoi l'homme d'aujourd'hui est-il si mal dans sa peau? Pourquoi a-t-il si peur de l'intimité? Pourquoi se sent-il obligé de jouer le héros, l'éternel adolescent, le séducteur ou le bon garçon? Pourquoi certains hommes refoulent-ils leur agressivité au fond d'eux-mêmes, minant ainsi leur force d'affirmation? Guy Corneau rompt le mutisme et répond avec lucidité et délicatesse à ces questions fondamentales.

L'Iliade raconte le siège de Troie, mais ne le suit pas dans son intégralité. Le récit épique fait alterner batailles et scènes se passant chez les héros des deux camps, troyens et achéens, ainsi qu'au sein de l'Olympe, chez les dieux. Qui ne connaît les noms des héros de l'épopée: Diomède, Ménélas, Agamemnon, les Ajax, Ulysse, Hector et surtout Achille dont la colère va diriger le récit. Colère terrible qui ménera son meilleur ami, Patrocle, à la mort et rendra Achille ivre de vengeance. Vengeance aveugle qui verra Hector, héros des Troyens, anéanti dans un combat singulier.
