un livre = a book

I have been reading that the much expected Kindle 2 was unveiled a few weeks ago but remains in the realms of niche electronics:

So I will stick to the old fashion paper ‘book’ = ‘livre’ over the weekend to indulge with ‘The Origin of Wealth’ by Eric D. Beinhocker.

A must read. The reviews on the web tell it all:

"A brilliant, thought-provoking and wide-ranging book… For me, it was more than the business book of 2006; it was the book of 2006."
- Martin Wolf, Financial Times

"Every once in a while, a book comes along that is able to pull together all the divergent threads of economic thinking into something approaching a coherent, understandable whole. The Origin of Wealth is such a book… it is a brilliant piece of intellectual history that deserves a prominent place on any shelf of economic literature."
- Steven Pearlstein, Washington Post
