She has graced the red carpets of Cannes, captivated audiences as a Bond girl, and redefined elegance as the face of Chanel No. 5 - but Carole Bouquet's true story is even more compelling than the images the world knows. In Carole Bouquet: The Untold Story Behind the Camera - From Bond Girl to French Cinema's Fierce Muse, author Jeremy B. Dyson delivers the first comprehensive portrait of the actress who has spent over four decades balancing international fame with an unshakable sense of self. From her Parisian youth and groundbreaking debut with legendary director Luis Bu uel, to her C sar-winning performances and enduring presence in French and global cinema, Bouquet's journey is one of artistry, resilience, and reinvention. Drawing on meticulous research, exclusive interviews, and vivid narrative detail, this biography goes beyond glamour to reveal the intelligence, discipline, and fierce independence behind the beauty. Dyson explores how Bouquet navigated the demanding worlds of film and fashion while keeping her personal life on her own terms - crafting a career that is as much about what she chose not to do as what she embraced. Both an intimate character study and a sweeping history of the eras and industries she has influenced, this is the definitive account of Carole Bouquet's life, legacy, and the quiet power that has made her an icon of French culture

The Pottery of Lerna IV
Jeremy B. Rutter
American School of Classical Studies at Athens
1995

The author presents the Early Helladic III pottery from Lerna in all its aspects, cataloguing, describing, and classifying over 1,400 vessels. The classification systems are based on detailed analyses of vessel shapes and ornamentation, supported by shape and pattern charts and numerous tables and illustrations. The concluding chapter compares the Lernaean pottery sequences to contemporary developments in central and southern Greece and examines the lineage of Early Helladic III pottery, which differs so profoundly from the pottery of the preceding period. Physico-chemical analyses of ceramic material are presented in an appendix.
In the fall of 1995, the bountiful colors of the leaves whispering life's perceptions breathed softly across the autumn path, taking me through decadent Smithsonian passages into yesteryear, down historical Spanish brick streets where Ponce De Leon had begun his quest for the Fountain of Youth, out onto a dock on the Indian River Lagoon to hand feed manatees, scuba diving from a sailboat into the crystal-clear waters on magnificent coral reefs of the Florida Keys, and backpacking the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica, which led me up inside a cloud forest to help construct an eco-lodge. And, that was just the beginning. Next, I found myself in the Land of Dixie whistling, "Amazing Grace", living and working on Bourbon, hosting and performing readings all across the Crescent City, hurling logs into the Mississippi as a steam ship passed, visiting one of the last Juke Joints left on the Delta, and at the end of that stint, the Assistant D.A. of New Orleans carrying my one suitcase to the airport as Satchmo's "St. James Infirmary" played on... From there I doubled back to Cocoa Beach, Orlando, to the house in Viera and across the seas and onto the beautiful island of Taiwan. I saw the underbelly of Taipei and enjoyed frequent trips by slow train to the beaches of Baishawan and Ilan. I met my soon to be wife. We lived in a hostel for the first eight months, slept on a twin size bed and shared the small room with a tiny mouse that never could be caught. After that we moved into a rooftop apartment in the Wanhua District of Taipei. A couple of years later my daughter was born. Riding motorcycles up and down, around and around the mountains of Guaningshan and Yangmingshan, participating in a Taiwanese funeral at the ancient family compound in the country back in Yunlin, hiking in the mountains at Cinjing Veterans Farm and 3000 meters up Yushan back down to the hot springs of Jinshan, the outdoor ones running right off the river at Wulai, and the old train line through the mountain tunnel into Naiwan Forest, down the east coast to Taroko National Gorge, Hualien and Taidong were all unbelievable experiences that I understand most will never see. This last one ended in Bangkok, Thailand in a car accident, then in a hospital in Trat, Thailand with brain surgery. After that it was back to Taiwan, and back to the house in Viera to recover. If I could just show you that temple of shells housed beneath those ugly sheet metal walls, if I could tell you what Taipei looks like from that walkover on Zhongxiao West Road in the early morning, or if you could feel the air passing through your body while leaping from the rocks of Lake Bitan you'd wish you were there. But, for now I'll have to show you because, I have a story. I have a story. Oh I have a story. Oohhh I have a story - Or a thousand stories. This is my story in Poetry.
There is an uncomfortably large gulf between academic research and what policy economists use to understand the economy. A Practical Guide to Macroeconomics shows how economists at policy institutions approach important real-world questions and explains why existing academic work – theoretical and empirical – has little to offer them. It argues that this disconnect between theory and practice is problematic for policymaking and the economics profession and looks at what's needed to make academic research more relevant for policy. The book also covers topics related to economic measurement and provides a compact overview of US macroeconomic statistics that will help researchers use these data in a better-informed way.
