And the only Google reference to this person seems to be a guide to cycling in Paris http://www.parisvoice.com/voicearchives/01/june/html/tips.html. I thought I knew most of the 'Go to France' books, but the only one with that title I know is the David Hampshire one already referred to. There's another, of which that forms part of the title, by Genevieve Brame http://www.kogan-page.co.uk/bookdetails.aspx?ISBN=0749442549. But whichever book you  are talking about it is likely to not be current. France's president is intent on changing a lot of things - and although the health reforms that are so widely discussed here are not going to have so much of an effect on those from outside the EU (which I presume you are, judging by where you chose to post your question) other reforms might well render the information in the books out of date. Forums like this one are the best place to get information - though always get confirmation of important points from a qualified person rather than rely on the internet (or books come to that).
