"‘Algorithm’: this is a word that remains poorly understood by the vast majority of us. But for scientist and entrepreneur Aurélie Jean, nothing is simpler or more straightforward than a line of code: it holds the promise of understanding, through virtualization, life itself—that is, the entirety of physical, economic, and societal phenomena—in short, any system. Writing an algorithm means mapping out a path to solving a given problem, a precise and reliable way to arrive at the desired answer. It is an attempt to master our world, with its many challenges that remain elusive even today."--

"« Algorithme » : voilà un mot encore mal compris par la plus grande majorité d'entre nous. Mais pour la scientifique et entrepreneure Aurélie Jean, rien de plus simple, de plus lisible qu'une ligne de code : elle est la promesse de comprendre, par la virtualisation, la vie elle-même, c'est-à-dire l'ensemble des phénomènes physiques, économiques ou sociétaux - en un mot tout système. Écrire un algorithme, c'est dessiner un chemin de résolution pour un problème donné, un moyen précis et fiable d'accéder à la réponse recherchée. C'est tenter de maîtriser notre monde, aux nombreux enjeux aujourd'hui encore insaisissables."--

FAQ

Here are the answers to the most common questions I get asked, please review them and reach out to me if you need more info on something, I love to help you pick the right book, just for you!

Are the books New?

Yes, all the books that I sell during my bookfairs or online on my e-boutique are brand new.. You will be the very first to flip all the pages and enjoy the feeling of holding your own book in your hand.

What defines the prices of the books?

As a passionate small business owner, my goal is to offer a high level of quality imported from France at the best price. I understand that some people may be surprised by the difference of price between French and American books. In France, books are more expensive as authors and illustrators get larger copyright compensations. Also, imports cost quite a bit if you take into account the price of transport as well as the weight of what is being transported. I appreciate your constant support, when you choose sustainable small businesses over large corporations.

Do you have a shop?

My main way of meeting you is book fairs, festivals and private sales. Ordering online through my e-boutique is the best way to support French Authors and Small Minority Owned business like mine. I also have a physical location present in Orange County accessible via appointment only. Please contact me through text to get more information!
