Les Presses de l'Universite Laval La Sagesse De Jesus-Christ
Cet ouvrage presente l'edition des deux textes coptes et du fragment grec de la Sagesse de Jesus-Christ, chacun accompagne de sa traduction francaise. Une introduction et un commentaire approfondi fournissent des precisions d'ordre doctrinal et philologique. Des index du vocabulaire copte et greco-copte propre a chacun des manuscrits completent le volume. Ce traite est le cas le plus celebre de reecriture dans la Bibliotheque gnostique de Nag Hammadi, car son contenu doctrinal recoupe pour une bonne part celui d'un autre ecrit, Eugnoste le Bienheureux. A cet egard, le volume propose une interpretation de la reecriture qui se demarque nettement des etudes qui l'ont precede; le lecteur y trouvera un temoignage de la maturation de certains themes chers a la gnose, maturation imputable a la circulation des textes, aux echanges avec les tenants d'autres doctrines, ou encore a l'evolution des idees de l'epoque.

Springer International Publishing AG Transmission Electron Microscopy: Diffraction, Imaging, and Spectrometry
This text is a companion volume to Transmission Electron Microscopy: A Textbook for Materials Science by Williams and Carter. The aim is to extend the discussion of certain topics that are either rapidly changing at this time or that would benefit from more detailed discussion than space allowed in the primary text. World-renowned researchers have contributed chapters in their area of expertise, and the editors have carefully prepared these chapters to provide a uniform tone and treatment for this exciting material. The book features an unparalleled collection of color figures showcasing the quality and variety of chemical data that can be obtained from today’s instruments, as well as key pitfalls to avoid. As with the previous TEM text, each chapter contains two sets of questions, one for self assessment and a second more suitable for homework assignments. Throughout the book, the style follows that of Williams & Carter even when the subject matter becomes challenging—the aim is always to make the topic understandable by first-year graduate students and others who are working in the field of Materials ScienceTopics covered include sources, in-situ experiments, electron diffraction, Digital Micrograph, waves and holography, focal-series reconstruction and direct methods, STEM and tomography, energy-filtered TEM (EFTEM) imaging, and spectrum imaging. The range and depth of material makes this companion volume essential reading for the budding microscopist and a key reference for practicing researchers using these and related techniques.

John Wiley & Sons Inc Biogeography: An Ecological and Evolutionary Approach
Through nine successful editions, and for over 45 years, Biogeography: An Ecological and Evolutionary Approach has provided a thorough and comprehensive exploration of the varied scientific disciplines and research that are essential to understanding the subject. The text, noted for its clear and engaging style of writing, has been praised for its solid background in historical biogeography and basic biology, that is enhanced and illuminated by discussions of current research. This new edition incorporates the exciting changes of the recent years and presents a thoughtful exploration of the research and controversies that have transformed our understanding of the biogeography of the world. New themes and topics in this tenth edition include: Next generation genetic technologies and their use in historical biogeography, phylogeography and population genomics Biogeographical databases and biodiversity information systems, which are becoming increasingly important for biogeographical research An introduction to functional biogeography and its applications to community assembly, diversity gradients and the analysis of ecosystem functioning Updated case studies focusing on island biogeography, using the latest phylogenetic studies Biogeography: An Ecological and Evolutionary Approach reveals how the patterns of life that we see today have been created by the two great Engines of the Planet: the Geological Engine, plate tectonics, which alters the conditions of life on the planet, and the Biological Engine, evolution, which responds to these changes by creating new forms and patterns of life.

Peeters Publishers Zostrien (NH VIII, 1)
Occupant la presque totalite du Codex VIII, "Zostrien" est le plus long traite de la Bibliotheque de Nag Hammadi. Il figure aussi au premier plan de l'histoire des idees dans l'Antiquite tardive, puisqu'il fut lu et refute dans l'ecole de Plotin, a Rome, dans la seconde moitie du IIIe siecle, et qu'il presente des paralleles frappants avec une des sources utilisees par Marius Victorinus. Par son fort contenu philosophique, "Zostrien" jette un eclairage nouveau sur l'histoire du platonisme avant et autour de Plotin. La presente edition offre un texte copte nouvellement etabli de cette oeuvre capitale, accompagnee d'une traduction francaise, d'une ample introduction, d'un commentaire exhaustif et d'index complets greco-copte, copte et des noms propres. Cet ouvrage interessera les coptologues, les specialistes du gnosticisme et les historiens de la philosophie.

John Wiley and Sons Ltd Biogeography: An Ecological and Evolutionary Approach
Through eight successful editions, and over nearly 40 years, Biogeography: An Ecological and Evolutionary Approach has provided a thorough and comprehensive exploration of the varied scientific disciplines and research that are essential to understanding the subject. The text has been praised for its solid background in historical biogeography and basic biology, that is enhanced and illuminated by discussions of current research. This new edition incorporates the exciting changes of the recent years, and presents a thoughtful exploration of the research and controversies that have transformed our understanding of the biogeography of the world. It also clearly identifies the three quite different arenas of biogeographical research: continental biogeography, island biogeography and marine biogeography. It is the only current textbook with full coverage of marine biogeography. It reveals how the patterns of life that we see today have been created by the two great Engines of the Planet - the Geological Engine, plate tectonics, which alters the conditions of life on the planet, and the Biological Engine, evolution, which responds to these changes by creating new forms and patterns of life.
