  • A time of perverts - Burn-out: the epidemic of the century - cover

    A time of perverts - Burn-out:...

    Patrick Legeron

    Burn-out affects hundreds of thousands of employees in France, and is spreading like an epidemic in the 21st century. One of the primary factors cited by specialists is increasingly brutal and manipulative managerial practices. 60% of employees feel that their manager is a source of stress for them.
    With the force of analysis and vivid style that made his previous book Clan des seigneurs such a success, Paul-Antoine Martin bears witness with startling realism to the terrible collapse represented by burn-out, its causes and its impact on the lives of those it strikes. He describes the uncommonly violent management methods and harassment to which he was subjected for many months. More broadly, he denounces the totalitarian drifts underway in the world of work, as well as the general hypocrisy that reigns there, noting that society promotes leaders who are brutal, perverse and affectless.
    Finally, the author tells how, thanks to his wife’s love, he gradually got back on his feet, free and stronger, despite the suffering, after-effects and relentlessness of his ex-employer. His testimony is a powerful message of hope, fighting spirit and dignity for the countless victims of burn-out. Paul-Antoine Martin, 57, an engineer by training (CentraleSupélec), has always worked in an industrial environment, from Anglo-Saxon multinationals to French public institutions. He has held senior executive positions, rubbing shoulders with captains of industry, politicians and senior civil servants.
    Patrick Légeron is a psychiatrist, burn-out specialist and co-author of the Académie de médecine report on burn-out. He is the author of several books on the subject.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    Feeding the Nine Billion: Strategies for Global Food Security is a clear, practical, and hopeful roadmap for ensuring that every person can access nutritious food in a warming, crowded, and rapidly changing world. Written in simple, bookish language and grounded in real-world experience, it moves from the scale of a single farm to global markets and institutions, showing how the pieces fit together to create resilient, fair, and nourishing food systems. It opens with the central challenge—feeding a projected nine billion people—by unpacking what food security truly means: not only producing enough calories, but guaranteeing equitable access and balanced diets that support health, dignity, and opportunity. 
    The book surveys the current landscape of hunger and malnutrition, explaining why people go hungry even when the world grows enough food. It explores how conflict, climate shocks, poverty, weak infrastructure, and inequality disrupt access to meals, and it highlights the quiet crisis of hidden hunger—micronutrient deficiencies that limit learning, productivity, and well-being. With this foundation, the narrative turns to solutions that work on the ground: sustainable agriculture practices that build living soils, conserve water, reduce waste, and weave biodiversity into the heart of farming; and innovations in crop science, breeding, and biotechnology that add resilience to heat, drought, pests, and disease while improving taste, nutrition, and storage life.
