In the eve of the first independence referendum, Louis Bourbon discovers that he has a growing problem: debt. In his first year as a medical student, he tries to resolve his financial troubles by attempting to become a pimp. After the attempt fails, Louis takes a sojourn in Cuba to “escape from himself.” There, he meets the innocent yet seductive Isabella, who is a symbol of the regime she lives in. Louis then heads back to Montreal to complete his medical studies. Shortly thereafter, he is involved in a relationship with Marie, a married woman with compulsive desires and a maniacal fear of aging. Louis later finds that his former high school friend, Sosthène, has embraced the lifestyle and values of Communist China and is seeking Quebec’s independence from Canada. Sosthène seeks Louis’s help in promoting his political ambitions but is met by reluctance. Sosthène, in a show of defiance and frustration, resolves to seek his revenge on the Establishment through an ill-fated bank robbery.

ISBN: 303132711X

This book summarises for the first time all relevant methodologies for type-based flood statistics, introduces the basis of flood typology and makes them accessible to the user. Flood types improve the understanding of the flood-generating processes and characterise the flood event in terms of its features such as peak, volume and hydrograph shape. In addition, they can also significantly expand the information used in flood statistics and add valuable flood characteristics to the determination of design floods, especially the determination of flood scenarios relevant for reservoir management. A detailed framework with all aspects of point and spatial statistics as well as regionalisation is presented, and examples illustrate the benefit of the proposed methodology. The target audience is both users in associations and engineering offices, as type-based statistics are increasingly becoming part of the specifications, and researchers, as this is a current field of research.
