Guide to Beauty
In this manual on beauty, two doctors - a plastic surgeon and a dermatologist - present all the existing means of enhancing every facet of one's appearance (face, eyes, makeup, hair, legs, breasts, buttocks, weight). The authors review the entire gamut of existing techniques, from the simplest to the most complex. The book is divided into sections: What you can do yourself, What your dermatologist can do and What your surgeon can do. This serious, rigorous study provides scientific arguments to help readers make their way through a plethora of choices in the areas of cosmetics, aesthetic dermatology and plastic surgery. The information given here is straightforward and unbiased by commercial considerations. Le Guide de la Beauté is an attractive, abundantly illustrated book offering a broad panorama of ways of enhancing one's appearance. Jean-Claude Hagège is a plastic and cosmetic surgeon and a member of the International Society of Plastic Reconstructive Surgery. Patrice Morel is head of Dermatology at Hôpital Saint-Louis, in Paris.

The French Language and the Centuries
Claude Hagege illustrates how the internal purity of the French language, less endangered than one might think, has been pushed aside in favor of its external promotion, less real than one might imagine. He increases our awareness of a major reality of the times. The French language is no longer the exclusive property of France; it has become an international affair. Claude Hagege is a professor at the Collège de France.
