Autour de “l’empoisonnement” de Napoléon (On the question of Napoleon’s “poisoning”’) is a collection of four previously unpublished and important texts on this complex subject. Doctor Jean-François Lemaire, of the Institut Napoléon, tells “the history of the affair”, doctors Paul Fornès and Pascal Kintz (those who participated in the press conference, organised by Ben Weider, in June 2001) publish the texts of their conclusions and reply to certain complementary questions. Thierry Lentz considers the methods used up to now by those who support the poisoning theory.
