Sommario/riassunto

Nonobstant l'incertitude, l'homme est né pour agir. Face aux agressions et aux bouleversements de l'environnement, l'inaction est plus stressante que l'action. Quels sont les choix, les stratégies ou les méthodes à mettre en oeuvre pour que l'action soit la plus efficace possible au regard des objectifs à atteindre ? Il ne faut pas s'illusionner sur le terme « bonne décision » qui n'a pas beaucoup de sens quand on agit dans l'incertain et que l'on connaît la faiblesse des prévisions. Il faut cependant savoir agir et être capable de franchir le pas de l'action la plus pertinente. Action dans l'incertain est un véritable guide pour mener efficacement une action alors que rien n'est sûr. En fonction des différents types d'incertain, quels sont les bons usages respectifs de l'expertise et de l'intuition ? Comment motiver les équipes et éviter les biais cognitifs et les manipulations ? Ces thèmes sont traités dans un langage clair et accessible pour accompagner au mieux les choix des décideurs dans un monde plus incertain que jamais.

Sommario/riassunto

This book provides an up-to-date interdisciplinary geoscience-focused overview of solid solar system bodies and their evolution, based on the comparative description of processes acting on them. Planetary research today is a strongly multidisciplinary endeavor with efforts coming from engineering and natural sciences. Key focal areas of study are the solid surfaces found in our Solar System. Some have a direct interaction with the interplanetary medium and others have dynamic atmospheres. In any of those cases, the geological records of those surfaces (and sub-surfaces) are key to understanding the Solar System as a whole: its evolution and the planetary perspective of our own



planet. This book has a modular structure and is divided into 4 sections comprising 15 chapters in total. Each section builds upon the previous one but is also self-standing. The sections are:  Methods and tools Processes and Sources  Integration and Geological Syntheses Frontiers The latter covers the far-reaching broad topics of exobiology, early life, extreme environments and planetary resources, all areas where major advancements are expected in the forthcoming decades and both key to human exploration of the Solar System. The target readership includes advanced undergraduate students in geoscience-related topics with no specific planetary science knowledge; undergraduates in other natural science domains (e.g. physics, astronomy, biology or chemistry); graduates in engineering and space systems design who want to complement their knowledge in planetary science. The authors’ backgrounds span a broad range of topics and disciplines: rooted in Earth geoscience, their expertise covers remote sensing and cartography, field mapping, impact cratering, volcanology and tectonics, sedimentology and stratigraphy exobiology and life in extreme environments, planetary resources and mining. Several generations of planetary scientists are cooperating to provide a modern view on a discipline developed from Earth during and through Space exploration.
