About the Book

" J'ai passe l'an dernier un apres-midi dans un college de la banlieue nord. Les eleves m'ont rappele qu'ils n'etaient pas faits pour les sciences. Mais, s'il y a bien inegalite dans les performances intellectuelles des jeunes de quinze ans, la nature, sauf cas pathologique, n'y est pour rien. A ces banlieusards, j'en ai apporte la preuve avec leur propre cas. Nous avons fait des maths, ou plutot nous avons joue aux maths ensemble et ils ont ete passionnes par les divers" infinis " de Cantor. Nous avons fait un detour par le theoreme de Godel et l'attention ne s'est pas relachee. Je pense qu'ils m'ont cru lorsque je leur ai affirme qu'ils etaient capable de comprendre tout ce que le " polytechnicien moyen " est capable de comprendre. Ce livre ne pretend pas indiquer comment faire l'ascension de cet Himalaya qu'est la science. Il aura atteint son but s'il a prouve a chacun qu'il est apte a explorer certaines voies menant a quelques " camps de base ." De la, la progression pourra se poursuivre. A. J. Apres l'immense succes de L'Equation du nenuphard, dans lequel le geneticien reconnu nous montrait que la science est avant tout un plaisir, Albert Jacquard entre ici dans le vif du sujet, clarifie pour nous certains concepts obscurs et met l'accent sur quelques outils au maniement souvent mal enseigne. Et notre metamorphose en scientifiques peut commencer... Polytechnicien et eminent geneticien, Albert Jacquard a ecrit de nombreux ouvrages sur la science et la societe qui sont autant de best-sellers. Il a publie chez Calmann-Levy: J'accuse l'economie triomphante (1995), Le Souci des pauvres (1996), Petite Philosophie a l'usage des non-philosophes (1997), L'Equation du nenuphar (1998) et A toi qui n'est pas encore ne (2000)."

About the Author :
Polytechnicien, ancien professeur de genetique, activiste humain, comme il aime a se definir lui-meme, Albert Jacquard a ecrit de nombreux livres sur la science et la societe. Il a publie chez Calmann-Levy J'accuse l'economie triomphante (1995), Le Souci des pauvres (1996), Petite philosophie a l'usage des non-philosophes (1997), L'Equation " du nenuphar (1998) et A toi qui n'es pas encore ne(e) (2000)." De l'angoisse a l'espoir, qui rassemble deux annees de cours d'"humanistique" donnes a l'Academie d'architecture de Mendrisio, constitue sans doute la meilleure introduction a sa pensee. Albert Jacquard est decede le mercredi 11 septembre 2013. "
