Evaluating Device Performance in the Laboratory Setting

In the world of literature, September is shaping up to be an exciting month. Here's a roundup of some of the noteworthy books that have been published or are set to be released soon.

Sociologist Gerald Bronner has published a new book titled "To the Assault of Reality," published by PUF. The book, consisting of 304 pages, argues that we've entered the era of post-reality, a development not good news for our societies. In 2021, French President Emmanuel Macron appointed Bronner to head a commission on the dangers of the internet age.

Another book that's generating buzz is the biography of Lin-Manuel Miranda, the creator of the musical "Hamilton." Titled "Lin-Manuel Miranda, The Education of an Artist," the book is written by theater critic Daniel Pollack-Pelzner and delves into the controversies surrounding "Hamilton" and their impact on Miranda. The 400-page biography will be released on September 9.

For those interested in contemporary politics, Catherine Fournier's new essay titled "Taming Politics" is a must-read. Longueuil Mayor Fournier aims to help young adults understand Quebec politics, and her essay will be released on September 10.

If you're intrigued by the modern-day oligarchs, the small essay "Les nouveaux oligarques" is a fascinating read. Written by Thomas Snegaroff, a French historian specializing in contemporary history, and Philippe Corbeé, a French journalist, the book features biographical and intellectual portraits of Elon Musk, President Donald Trump, Jeff Bezos, and other influential figures. The essay, published by Les Arènes and France Inter, consists of 151 pages. It's relevant but far from exhaustive, with brief presentations of the "robber barons" of the late 19th century in the United States (Rockefeller, J.P. Morgan, etc.) also included.

For music enthusiasts, Annie Desrochers has written an essay titled "Transmission, the inheritances of James Bay" which is published in comic book form by Écosociété. The essay consists of 112 pages and provides an interesting perspective on the Canadian singer-songwriter's work.

Lastly, "Transmission, the inheritances of James Bay" is not the only book in comic book form. Lin-Manuel Miranda's biography, penned by Daniel Pollack-Pelzner and published by Simon & Schuster, is also available in this format. The book, both serious and fun, is broken down into bite-sized pieces for social media, making it easy to digest and share.

These books offer a diverse range of topics and perspectives, making September an exciting month for readers. Whether you're interested in politics, music, or contemporary history, there's something for everyone.
