I due vulcani è un romanzo di fantascienza e fantapolitica ambientato nel futuro, sullo sfondo di un evento apocalittico. In questa storia si intrecciano i destini di molte persone che il lettore incontra nel tempo di sei giorni densi di pathos. Anche nell'incalzare degli eventi sempre più drammatici, emerge l'umanità dei protagonisti che sono uomini e donne come se ne possono incontrare dappertutto. I protagonisti percorrono gli eventi di questa storia come eroi di una tragedia Greca. Il loro destino è segnato; gli eventi che incalzano non lasciano scampo. Ci sono tragedie nella tragedia generale e c'è l'amore che proclama la sua forza nelle spire di quella stessa tragedia che a volte divora le sue vittime e a volte svela orizzonti di nuove speranze e nuova vita. Quando poi i due vulcani esploderanno, sarà una liberazione. Ogni cosa troverà la sua giusta collocazione e sembrerà di giungere dal futuro alla ricongiunzione con un passato che potrebbe forse essere anche il nostro presente nell'ambito delle sue probabilità. Se qualcuno vorrà soffermarsi a pensare ad una ipotesi di realtà degli accadimenti narrati, scoprirà che nulla è da escludere. La zona Flegrea è una delle più pericolose del mondo, sia per probabilità che per gravità ed il Vesuvio, come ha dimostrato da molte migliaia d'anni è sempre in agguato come una belva che spii una preda. Non bisogna dimenticare che Napoli è adagiata tutta sopra effusioni vulcaniche, al margine di una caldera e questo dovrebbe aiutare a comprendere. Come si è giunti a far stipare milioni di persone in uno spazio tanto angusto che è tra i più pericolosi del mondo? Di queste cose si può dire tutto, sia pro che contro, ma qualsiasi cosa accada, non si potrà mai dire che si tratti di fatalità e far finta che il problema non esista è quanto di peggio possano fare le Amministrazioni e tutte le persone di cultura e di pensiero. Chiedetevi come farebbe la popolazione ad abbandonare quel territorio nel tempo di un’ora, forse di mezz'ora o forse meno. Chiedetevi se esiste un valido piano di evacuazione, se ci sono le strade e l’organizzazione per attuarlo e se la gente di tutto l'areale Flegreo Vesuviano è stata ben istruita su ciò che dovrebbe fare. Se vi viene paura, vi faccio tanti auguri; se non vi viene paura, mi dispiace molto per voi. Comunque ho scritto questo romanzo per scaramanzia, perché vi voglio bene.

Amateur astronomy has changed beyond recognition in less than two decades. The reason is, of course, technology. Affordable high-quality telescopes, computer-controlled 'go to' mountings, autoguiders, CCD cameras, video, and (as always) computers and the Internet, are just a few of the advances that have revolutionized astronomy for the twenty-first century. Martin Mobberley first looks at the basics before going into an in-depth study of what’s available commercially. He then moves on to the revolutionary possibilities that are open to amateurs, from imaging, through spectroscopy and photometry, to patrolling for near-earth objects - the search for comets and asteroids that may come close to, or even hit, the earth. The New Amateur Astronomer is a road map of the new astronomy, equally suitable for newcomers who want an introduction, or old hands who need to keep abreast of innovations. From the reviews: "This is one of several dozen books in Patrick Moore's "Practical Astronomy" series. Amid this large family, Mobberley finds his niche: the beginning high-tech amateur. The book's first half discusses equipment: computer-driven telescopes, CCD cameras, imaging processing software, etc. This market is changing every bit as rapidly as the computer world, so these details will be current for only a year or two. The rest of the book offers an overview of scientific projects that serious amateurs are carrying out these days. Throughout, basic formulas and technical terms are provided as needed, without formal derivations. An appendix with useful references and Web sites is also included. Readers will need more than this book if they are considering a plunge into high-tech amateur astronomy, but it certainly will whet their appetites. Mobberley's most valuable advice will save the book's owner many times its cover price: buy a quality telescope from a reputable dealer and install it in a simple shelter so it can be used with as little set-up time as possible. A poor purchase choice and the hassle of setting up are why most fancy telescopes gather dust in their owners' dens. Summing Up: Highly recommended. General readers; lower- and upper-division undergraduates."( T. D. Oswalt, CHOICE, March 2005)

A term with myriad associations, revolution is commonly understood in its intellectual, historical, and sociopolitical contexts. Until now, almost no attention has been paid to revolution and questions of geography. Geography and Revolution examines the ways that place and space matter in a variety of revolutionary situations. David N. Livingstone and Charles W. J. Withers assemble a set of essays that are themselves revolutionary in uncovering not only the geography of revolutions but the role of geography in revolutions. Here, scientific revolutions—Copernican, Newtonian, and Darwinian—ordinarily thought of as placeless, are revealed to be rooted in specific sites and spaces. Technical revolutions—the advent of print, time-keeping, and photography—emerge as inventions that transformed the world's order without homogenizing it. Political revolutions—in France, England, Germany, and the United States—are notable for their debates on the nature of political institutions and national identity. Gathering insight from geographers, historians, and historians of science, Geography and Revolution is an invitation to take the where as seriously as the who and the when in examining the nature, shape, and location of revolutions.

Translated here into English for the first time is a monumental work of literary history and criticism comparable in scope and achievement to Eric Auerbach’s Mimesis. Italian critic Francesco Orlando explores Western literature’s obsession with outmoded and nonfunctional objects (ruins, obsolete machinery, broken things, trash, etc.). Combining the insights of psychoanalysis and literary-political history, Orlando traces this obsession to a turning point in history, at the end of eighteenth-century industrialization, when the functional becomes the dominant value of Western culture. Roaming through every genre and much of the history of Western literature, the author identifies distinct categories into which obsolete images can be classified and provides myriad examples. The function of literature, he concludes, is to remind us of what we have lost and what we are losing as we rush toward the future.

In this unconventional and accessible history, Italian best-seller Alberto Angela literally follows the money to map the reach and power of the Roman Empire. To see a map of the Roman Empire at the height of its territorial expansion is to be struck by its size, stretching from Scotland to Kuwait, from the Sahara to the North Sea. What was life like in the Empire, and how were such diverse peoples and places united under one rule? The Reach of Rome explores these questions through an ingenious lens: the path of a single coin as it changes hands and traverses the vast realms of the empire in the year 115. Admired in his native Italy for his ability to bring history to life through narrative, Alberto Angela opens up the ancient world to readers who have felt intimidated by the category or put off by dry historical tomes. By focusing on aspects of daily life so often overlooked in more academic treatments, The Reach of Rome travels back in time and shows us a world that was perhaps not very different from our own. And by following the path of a coin through the streams of commerce, we can touch every corner of that world and its people, from legionnaires and senators to prostitutes and slaves. Through lively and detailed vignettes all based on archeological and historical evidence, Angela reveals the vast Roman world and its remarkable modernity, and in so doing he reinforces the relevance of the ancient world for a new generation of readers.
