Product Description
Borel was born in in Saint-Affrique, Aveyron. Along with René-Louis Baire and Henri Lebesgue, he was among the pioneers of measure theory and its application to probability theory. The concept of a Borel set is named in his honor. One of his books on probability introduced the amusing thought experiment that entered popular culture under the name infinite monkey theorem or the like. He also published a number of research papers on game theory. In 1913 and 1914 he bridged the gap between hyperbolic geometry and special relativity with expository work. In the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s he was active in politics. From 1924 to 1936, he was a member of the French National Assembly. In 1925, he was Minister of Marine. During the Second World War he was a member of the French Resistance. ... Read more

Le livre consiste d'articles Wikipedia sur : Édouard de Castelnau, Émile Borel, Paul Ramadier, Pierre Pradié, Emmanuel Temple, Joseph Coucoureux, Adolphe Boisse, Émile Maruéjouls, Jean Niel, Léonce de Castelnau, Eugène Raynaldy. Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Noël Marie Joseph Édouard, vicomte de Curières de Castelnau (né le 24 décembre 1851 à Saint-Affrique, Aveyron - mort le 19 mars 1944 à Montastruc-la-Conseillère, Haute-Garonne) était un général français qui fut commandant d'armée et chef d'état major du généralissime Joffre durant la Première Guerre mondiale. Né à Saint-Affrique en Aveyron dans une famille de vieille noblesse et de longue tradition militaire, il fit partie de la promotion 1869 de Saint-Cyr dont il sort sous-lieutenant le 14 août 1870, il est nommé au 31 régiment d'infanterie et participa à la Guerre franco-prussienne de 1870-1871. Son catholicisme exalté le fit surnommer « le Capucin Botté » ou encore par Clemenceau de "général de Jésuitière, indigne des responsabilités qu'il assumait", et qui lui disait " Après notre mort, mon Général, Dieu nous départagera". Avec ses prises de position lors de l'affaire Dreyfus, il sera écarté un temps de la direction du premier bureau, lors du ministère du général André et de l'affaire des fiches. Promu général de brigade le 25 mars 1906, il commande la 24 brigade à Sedan, la 7 à Soissons, et devient général de division le 21 décembre 1909 - il avait été exclu une première fois du tableau d'avancement par le général Sarrail, alors directeur de l'infanterie -, il commande alors la 13 division à Chaumont. Rappelé à l'état-major sur demande express de Joffre, il est nommé, le 2 août 1911, premier sous-chef d'état-major général sous ses ordres. La même année, il est promu Commandeur ...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more
