Sixty Million Frenchmen Can't Be Wrong pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
The French... -Smoke, drink and eat more fat than anyone in the world, yet live longer and have fewer heart problems than Americans -Work 35-hour weeks, and take seven weeks of paid holidays per year, but are still the world's fourth-biggest economic power So what makes the French so different? Sixty Million Frenchmen Can't Be Wrong is a journey into the French heart, mind and soul. Decrypting French ideas about land, privacy and language, Nadeau and Barlow weave together the threads of French society--from centralization and the Napoleonic Code to elite education and even street protests--giving us, for the first time, a complete picture of the French. " A] readable and insightful piece of work." --Montreal Mirror "In an era of irrational reactions to all things French, here is an eminently rational answer to the question, 'Why are the French like that?'" --Library Journal "A must-read." --Edmonton Journal

The holder of seventeen journalism awards, he was granted a two-year fellowship in 1998 by the New Hampshire–based Institute for Current World Affairs to study why the French resist globalization. In 2001, he published a humorous travelogue, Les français aussi ont un accent (Payot, Paris). He has also traveled in Mexico, the UK, New Zealand, and Algeria.
