This monograph brings together the latest trends and new results in this field, with the aim of presenting methods covering a large range of techniques. Particular emphasis is...

In July 2005, over twenty million spectators flocked to France to see if anyone could beat Lance Armstrong in the Tour de France. Among them were hundreds of thousands of Americans - men of a certain age and financial status, mostly - who see the Tour as the ultimate buddy getaway, a jaunt replete with fine wines, delicious meals and lazy mornings under the Provencal sun. There were also huge clumps of Germans, Spaniards, Italians, Dutch - basically every country in Europe, a mini-UN that packed the fields and small towns along the way, showing how one can be drunk in 13 different languages....

Napadená země se během několika týdnů zhroutila a její metropole, ono město světel zaslíbené intelektuálům a umělcům, ctěné pro svou atmosféru bezstarostnosti a svobodomyslnosti, se ocitlo pod nacistickou nadvládou. Okupanti rozpoutali teror, proti němuž se začal formovat vlastenecký odpor. Nacistům padlo za oběť více než sto dvacet tisíc Pařížanů, bezpočet dalších prošel věznicemi Gestapa a skončil...
