Learning French, or not reading Serge's book...

Serge, you wrote:

"The text of this chapter is available, and can be sent to anybody
on request. It is in french as you know, presently I don't have
enough time
to translate it."

Without a translation, I'm afraid it will remain unread. Learning a new
a new language just to read one dissertation is far down on my list of
important things to do -- I'm too busy composing with what little time I
now have.

Good luck with the book, though.
