From the New York Times bestselling author of Unto Us a Son is Given, comes one of her most dark and thrilling mysteries yet. A woman’s cryptic dying words in a Venetian hospice lead Guido Brunetti to uncover a threat to the entire region in Donna Leon’s haunting twenty-ninth Brunetti novel. When Dottoressa Donato calls the Questura to report that a dying patient at the hospice Fatebenefratelli wants to speak to the police, Commissario Guido Brunetti and his colleague, Claudia Griffoni, waste no time in responding. “They killed him. It was bad money. I told him no,” Benedetta Toso gasps the words about her recently-deceased husband, Vittorio Fadalto. Even though he is not sure she can hear him Brunetti softly promises he and Griffoni will look into what initially appears to be a private family tragedy. They discover that Fadalto worked in the field collecting samples of contamination for a company that measures the cleanliness of Venice’s water supply and that he had died in a mysterious motorcycle accident. Distracted briefly by Vice Questore Patta’s obsession with youth crime in Venice, Brunetti is bolstered once more by the remarkable research skills of Patta’s secretary, Signora Elettra Zorzi. Piecing together the tangled threads, in time Brunetti comes to realize the perilous meaning in the woman’s accusation and the threat it reveals to the health of the entire region. But justice in this case proves to be ambiguous, as Brunetti is reminded it can be when, seeking solace, he reads Aeschylus’s classic play The Eumenides. As she has done so often through her memorable characters and storytelling skill, Donna Leon once again engages our sensibilities as to the differences between guilt and responsibility.

Overview

An argument that consciousness, more widespread than previously assumed, is the feeling of being alive, not a type of computation or a clever hack. In The Feeling of Life Itself, Christof Koch offers a straightforward definition of consciousness as any subjective experience, from the most mundane to the most exalted—the feeling of being alive.  Psychologists study which cognitive operations underpin a given conscious perception. Neuroscientists track the neural correlates of consciousness in the brain, the organ of the mind. But why the brain and not, say, the liver? How can the brain, three pounds of highly excitable matter, a piece of furniture in the universe, subject to the same laws of physics as any other piece, give rise to subjective experience? Koch argues that what is needed to answer these questions is a quantitative theory that starts with experience and proceeds to the brain. In The Feeling of Life Itself, Koch outlines such a theory, based on integrated information. Koch describes how the theory explains many facts about the neurology of consciousness and how it has been used to build a clinically useful consciousness meter. The theory predicts that many, and perhaps all, animals experience the sights and sounds of life; consciousness is much more widespread than conventionally assumed. Contrary to received wisdom, however, Koch argues that programmable computers will not have consciousness. Even a perfect software model of the brain is not conscious. Its simulation is fake consciousness. Consciousness is not a special type of computation—it is not a clever hack. Consciousness is about being.

Overview

Un roman d'apprentissage - initiation, amours, et découverte de la poterie par un jeune chevrier cévenol - et d'époque qui reconstitue toute la vérité historique d'une région embrasée par les guerres de Religion au XVIIIe siècle. Alors que le vallon de Salendrinque tremble sous les exactions des dragons du roi, venus mater les Cévennes acquises à la religion réformée, Toinet voit sa vie basculer à la mort accidentelle de son père. Spoliée de la ferme qu'elle exploitait avec son époux, Jaquette Rouvel doit se séparer de sa fille qui ira travailler à la filature et de son fils Toinet qui sera placé en apprentissage chez un potier.
Chez maître Roque, en plus de trouver une nouvelle famille, Toinet découvre sa voie : travailler cette argile qu'il façonne, jour après jour, avec habileté. Mais il doit quitter la chaleureuse famille Roque et son nouveau patron, un potier d'Anduze, abusant de sa confiance, l'engage à son insu dans un long périple pour un tour de France des Compagnons du Devoir. Après cinq longues années, la roue du destin a enfin tourné pour Jaquette Rouvel qui rentre en possession de l'héritage paternel.
Elle attend le retour de Toinet. Reviendra-t-il comme il l'a promis à Apolline, la jolie fille de maître Roque ? Réalisera-t-il alors son rêve de fabriquer ces poteries lumineuses découvertes au cours de ses pérégrinations : les vases Médicis ?

Overview

Au début des années 1930, à Nîmes, Jean-Christophe, devenu le patriarche de la lignée, est parvenu à redonner un élan salutaire à l'entreprise de textile familiale. Son fils tente l'aventure américaine en créant une usine de jeans dans l'espoir de concurrencer un certain Levi Strauss. Alix, étudiante aux Beaux-Arts à Paris, s'éprend du célèbre galeriste Alexandre Muller, victime d'amnésie partielle, et l'aide à retrouver des pans de sa mémoire.
Un autre membre du clan, parti en Allemagne à la recherche de la branche germanique des Rochefort, assiste, impuissant, à la montée du nazisme. Aux premiers grondements de la guerre, tous se réfugient dans leur fief cévenol. Quand Alexandre Muller retrouve enfin ses souvenirs, l'univers des Rochefort est bouleversé. Qui est ce mystérieux personnage qu'un parfum de magnolia sort peu à peu de l'oubli ?
