Arttesia Ebooks

 

 

The transition to ebooks has become unavoidable and its effects remain elusive, foreshadowing significant changes in reading habits.

 

Arttesia is convinced by the new technical possibilities offered by the digital book on the reading level and on the level of dynamic and teaching possibilities as well.

 

The book will remain the book.

 

However, the book will be a new digital transmitter of knowledge filling some limitations of traditional books. Arttesia is in delight.

THE WORLD OF BUSINESS

 

Author: Lassaad Ghachem

 

The lack of clarity in connection to e-business adoption by international companies requests the deepening of studies of certain links in particular between e-business, companies and international markets. Falling under the general set of themes of IT use by export businesses, the origi-nality of this work is that it approaches at the same time internationalization modes and e-maturity stages. In addition to a rich re-examination of literature, this work presents a study carried out on firms operation in the manufacturing of medical instruments, precision instruments, optics and watch making. This study can give some insight that may help improve the use of e-business by International firms. This work also reviews all the elements making it possible to understand how these companies use e-trade to successfully conquer overseas markets.

History of the Swiss federal government - The Federal Council from the early stirrings of the Ancien Régime up to 2009

 

 

BOOK IN FRENCH

 

Collection

KNOWLEDGE OF HISTORY

 

Author: Jean-Luc Portmann

 

This book traces the slow genesis of the Swiss Federal Council, whose origin is in the Small councils of the cantons during the Ancien Régime as well as the French revolution and the Swiss Republic. The Author explores the organization of political powers (the people, the legislature and the executive) during various historical periods leading to the creation of federal authorities, in 1848.

He also connects to the constitutional revisions which, from 1848 to 2009, modified the position of the Federal Council, how the composition of the federal government adapted during these 161 years. He also touches on the unsuccessful attempts to reform the composition of the Federal Council for the same period. These various attempts are gathered by topics (the election of the Federal Council by the people, the re-election and the revocation of magistrates by the electorate, the increase in the number of Federal Councillors, the introduction of quotas, the presence of women, the reinforcement of the presidency of the Confederation and the setting-up of a presidential regime or member of Parliament).

The death penalty in the American punitive arsenal - Comparison with the Swiss system

 

 

BOOK IN FRENCH

 

Collection

KNOWLEDGE OF LAW

 

Author: Ludivine Ferreira

 

The death penalty. Here is a topic that has travelled through centuries without a wrinkle and without losing its intensity. The death penalty has always aroused the greatest passion among criminal lawyers, criminologists and even people. And for very good reason! The death penalty is in total contradiction with the human rights, and particularly the most fundamental to all and concerning each individual: the right to life.

Consequently, should Capital Punishment be part of the punitive Arsenal of a state?

While not a scientific or criminological study, this work tries to answer this question, or at least to lead the reader to contemplate, make an opinion, by giving the reader guidelines of thinking and research. Thus, it is not about a plea against the death penalty, nor even to excuse the committed crimes, or worse yet, to forget the victims of these. Quite the contrary! Progressively the reading makes everyone wonder about his/her opinion on Capital Punishment, as well as to understand the law enforcement system to best able to protect and can then identify with one of the two sides, abolitionist or partisan.

Small Treaty of Feminist Disobedience

 

 

BOOK IN FRENCH

 

Collection

CHALLENGES OF SOCIAL CHANGES

 

Author: Stéphanie Pahud

 

Our society encourages men and women, from an early age, to adopt behaviors and stereotypical characteristics, otherwise they will not be recognized as "real" men and "real " women. This small treaty on feminist disobedience aims to examine contemporary representations of gender in order to allow those who do not come from Mars or Venus to disobey the "gender police".

In addition to the author’s voice are some fifty personalities - journalists, politicians, writers, professors, etc... - who reveal their relationship to feminism.

 

"If I consider myself a feminist? Oh yes! Even though this term is often seen as aggressive or out dated", Anne-Catherine Lyon.

 

"I am a feminist. I say this without demagoguery or assignment", Darius Rochebin.

 

"I am a feminist who loves men", Martina Chyba.

 

"I am unable to define what it is to really be a feminist",

Martine Brunschwig-Graf.

 

"Simply saying we're a feminist, when a man, has always seemed foolish cockerel pride, vaguely paternalistic, almost condescending", Christopher Passer.

 

"We did not go through all these struggles as women to again become females", Salika Wenger.

The purpose of this book is to initiate the people in charge of or people implicated somehow in the IT-security of their company. The stakes can be enormous. This work cannot be improvised and must comply with relatively precise methodological rules. Thus, within the framework of an IT-security approach focused on a business vision, the project leaders must carefully produce a “strategic diagnosis of IT-security” starting from data gathering in a concrete organization and according to a strategic analytical process. This important work must meet specific guidelines regarding the structure and shape of the resulting report. That is the purpose of this excellent book.

Advertising variations on the gender - A linguistic analysis of the advertising representations of the femininity and masculinity

 

 

BOOK IN FRENCH

 

Collection

KNOWLEDGE OF LANGUAGE

 

Author: Stéphanie Pahud

 

Book with many colour illustrations

 

“Stéphanie Pahud's book clearly indicates the tracks of an essential collaboration to the social sciences and society, artificially divided by the academic institutions in competing Faculties.”

 

“An advertisement deserves the same attention as a poem or any other literary text. It socially makes sense and requires a linguistic as much as sociocultural decoding with the assistance of the ancient rhetoric’s knowledge and modern linguistics.”

 

Jean-Michel Adam, professor of French linguistics - University of Lausanne (Switzerland)

 

In economic terms, the gender system is a cornerstone of the advertising discourse. It is involved in market segmentation, media and support selection, the external appearance of products, the tone of campaigns, the choice of the sales points and, of course, the advertisement scripts. On the other hand, symbolically, the advertising discourse is a privileged agent of the gender imaginary which circulates in its distribution context. In this position, confronted with an increasingly competitive market, the increasing instability of consumers as well as mounting media, academic and public criticism to the stereotypes, the advertising discourse is brought to propose increasingly diversified representations of men and women. This work, which stems from the linguistic analysis of discourse, falls into the complexity of these advertising variations on the feminine and the masculine and deciphers gender imaginary in which they are concerned. In addition, it raises the question of the political dimension of academic research.

In a world that suffers the damage of pollution, Alexander’s legacy is a mission.

Now the child will have to try to repair the most dangerous error made by his ancestor, so this outstanding scientist and innovator can finally find peace.

Plunged into a maze of discoveries and science, history and culture, where the value of human relationships takes a prominent place, this adventure requires your help.
