Oliver Twist naît orphelin dans l'Angleterre du XIXe siècle. Mal nourri, exploité dès ses plus jeunes années, le pauvre garçon endure tout avec patience. Mais il refuse un jour les traitements injustes qu'il subit et fuit vers Londres. Epuisé, affamé, il est recueilli par une bande de jeunes voleurs. Il découvre alors un autre monde, tout aussi cruel, où la ruse et la force sont les meilleures armes. Le destin cessera-t-il de s'acharner contre Oliver ? A l'occasion de la sortie en salles du film de Roman Polanski, Le Livre de Poche Jeunesse propose une nouvelle traduction d'Oliver Twist par Michel Laporte, qui restitue toute la fraîcheur et le rythme, la tendresse et l'ironie du chef-d'œuvre de Charles Dickens.
Arthur's seduction of an innocent, young country girl results in remorse, suffering, and regret
The book presents a radical theory of the new world order, exploring the intensifying globalization of power alongside emerging global forms of resistance. It delves into the interplay of governance, economy, and culture, addressing critical issues such as American supremacy, capital power, market civilization, and surveillance. The author, Stephen Gill, highlights the evolution of political agency and collective action that arises in response to dominant powers, emphasizing the dynamic dialectic between power and resistance in contemporary society.
Based on intimate knowledge of the poet's manuscripts, on a fresh look at contemporary records and on a study of the mass of material that has appeared since the last serious biography, this new account of Wordsworth focuses on what was most important to him - his life as a writer.

HIV+ persons experience distress from the disease and the economic and medical management issues that impact their quality of life. Distress has been shown to negatively impact the immune system in many studies. The purpose of this study was to test an Ericksonian hypnosis intervention designed to reduce distress and relieve the immune system. Forty HIV persons were randomly assigned to either the hypnosis audiotape intervention group or the assessment-only control group. Psychosocial and immunological measures were taken before and after the intervention. Although there were no significant intervention effects, other intriguing findings suggest future paths for research. Frequency of audiotape listening was significantly related to changes in viral load. There was a highly significant correlation at baseline between both total mood disturbance and anger with subsequent increases in viral load being associated with high anger and mood disturbance at baseline. Researchers and others interested in the use of hypnosis to effect changes in behaviors, moods and the immune system will find this study informative and suggestive of future directions in this area of mind-body research.
