A riveting, on-the-edge-of-your-seat tale about the notorious 1978 kidnapping of Baron Édouard-Jean “Wado” Empain, intertwined with the story of his famous grandfather, the first baron and builder of the Paris Métro. A multigenerational saga told against the backdrops of both Belle Époque and 1970s high-fashion Paris. What does it take to create a dynasty? What does it take to keep one going? And what does it take to save the life of the dazzling but flawed man who inherited it all? Launched in the 1880s by the first baron, the Empain industrial empire spread from Belgium and France to span more than a dozen countries. When Wado took over, he further expanded the company, became a key player in France’s nuclear sector, and, by the mid-1970s, was one of the country’s most powerful business leaders—a self-described “master of the universe.” But these were also the “years of lead,” marked by a rash of high-profile kidnappings around the globe, including the headline-grabbing seizure of American heiress Patty Hearst. Wado’s vertiginous rise caught the eye of Alain Cailloll, a small-time gangster who had grown up in a wealthy family before embracing a life of crime. On January 23, 1978, Caillol and his confederates snatched the baron off the Paris streets, sure that they’d get the 80 million francs they demanded in ransom. To show they meant business, they chopped off Wado’s little finger and warned that more body parts would follow. But nothing unfolded as the kidnappers, or Wado himself, expected. Would Empain’s company pay? Could his family afford this astronomical sum? How much was the life of a leader, a father, and a husband worth? Most important, could a determined police chief and his crack investigators outsmart the kidnappers? The answers to those questions unspooled over two months in a tangle of events leading to a bloody showdown whose consequences would prove fatal to the Empain dynasty.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 In the 1970s, Baron Empain was the head of an industrial empire that comprised 174 companies and employed 136,000 workers in fields ranging from mining and metallurgy to banking, heavy construction, shipbuilding, armaments, and nuclear energy. #2 France was experiencing a decade of political transition. The turmoil caused by the Paris-centered student uprising of May 1968 had settled down, though it hastened Charles de Gaulle’s departure from power in 1970. #3 Empain was a man who valued privacy and discretion over flashy displays of wealth. He took pride in his title of nobility, though it did not descend from any ancient aristocracy. His life was carefully compartmentalized: he kept his family, his colleagues, his gambling partners, his mistresses, and his hunting buddies in separate, hermetically sealed boxes. #4 Wado and his family spent their annual summer vacations at a villa rented from the American railroad heiress Florence Gould. They would pass their days on the beach hobnobbing with their rich friends, but there was one woman who preferred to play with the men: Shahnaz.

Most scientists and researchers aren’t prepared to talk to the press or to policymakers—or to deal with backlash. Many researchers have the horror stories to prove it. What’s clear, according to Nancy Baron, is that scientists, journalists and public policymakers come from different cultures. They follow different sets of rules, pursue different goals, and speak their own language. To effectively reach journalists and public officials, scientists need to learn new skills and rules of engagement. No matter what your specialty, the keys to success are clear thinking, knowing what you want to say, understanding your audience, and using everyday language to get your main points across. In this practical and entertaining guide to communicating science, Baron explains how to engage your audience and explain why a particular finding matters. She explores how to ace your interview, promote a paper, enter the political fray, and use new media to connect with your audience. The book includes advice from journalists, decision makers, new media experts, bloggers and some of the thousands of scientists who have participated in her communication workshops. Many of the researchers she has worked with have gone on to become well-known spokespeople for science-related issues. Baron and her protégées describe the risks and rewards of “speaking up,” how to deal with criticism, and the link between communications and leadership. The final chapter, ‘Leading the Way’ offers guidance to scientists who want to become agents of change and make your science matter. Whether you are an absolute beginner or a seasoned veteran looking to hone your skills, Escape From the Ivory Tower can help make your science understood, appreciated and perhaps acted upon.

The Baron Trump novels, and The Last President, are three novels by Ingersoll Lockwood, an American lawyer and writer. The three novels are, Travels and Adventures of Little Baron Trump and His Wonderful Dog Bulger (1889), Baron Trump's Marvellous Underground Journey (1893), and, 1900 or, The Last President (1896). The first two were written at a time when other books like Alice in Wonderland were filling a desire for fantasy children's books - but unfortunately for Lockwood, his own books would never become as popular. Until they were rediscovered in 2017, when Internet users pointed out the similarities between the character Baron Trump, and the then President. Among other things, the real life Trump's son is called Barron, Baron Trump (of the book) is prone to getting in trouble, often mentions how huge his brain his, has a personalised insult for people he meets, and lives in Castle Trump (Trump Tower). The Last President, the final novel in this edition, is more of a dystopian novel rather than a children's novel, that tells how the downfall of the American republic is brought about by the election of a populist president.
