Quebec City Bookstore

This is the bookstore where I purchased the books mentioned in the previous post. For some of you, access to this kind of resource is likely easy. Living in Calgary, Alberta, it is less so for me. Online access is, of course, an open door to all kinds of great resources but having a chance to browse through a shop in a French speaking community was deeply encouraging. I don't think the store has a website but I commend it to you if you ever have the chance to visit Quebec City.

Here's the address:
Librairie Generale Francaise
10, cote de la Farbrique, Quebec G1R 3V7
1-418-692-2442 or 1-418-692-2449

A Wonderful Find

While on a month-long road trip this summer with my family, I had a chance to visit Quebec City. There, within the beautiful walls, I found a French bookstore. After entering, I located the philosophy section and was excited to see a plastic wrapped edition of Le Systeme de Leibniz et ses modeles mathematiques. As a slow student of French, I will have my work cut out digging through this but it will be worth every effort. I asked the shopkeeper if he had any more works by Serres. He returned with Le Contrat Naturel, La Legende des Anges, and Les Origines de la Geometrie. This was such a welcome find.
