All’inizio degli anni Trenta Guglielmo Marconi, nominato presidente del Cnr per diretta volontà di Mussolini, recepì le richieste di rinnovamento della Fisica terrestre avanzate dai settori più sensibili del mondo accademico e, fra non poche difficoltà e contrasti, avviò la costituzione di un moderno Istituto nazionale di geofisica. L’Italia martoriata da ricorrenti crisi sismiche e vulcaniche necessitava di reti di sorveglianza più efficienti e di un ammodernamento degli studi: l’impresa fu affidata a un fisico affermato, Antonino Lo Surdo, che in pochi anni ebbe la capacità di mobilitare uomini e risorse per il raggiungimento dell’obiettivo. Basandosi sul ritrovamento di documenti inediti e sull’analisi di pubblicazioni scientifiche dell’epoca, gli autori hanno ricostruito la storia di questa impresa che si sviluppa nello stesso contesto della scuola di fisica romana degli anni Trenta, coinvolgendo molti dei collaboratori e seguaci di Enrico Fermi. Fanno da sfondo gli anni del consenso al fascismo, della guerra mondiale e della defascistizzazione, durante i quali virtù scientifiche e debolezze umane di alcuni protagonisti, a partire da Lo Surdo, si evidenziano nel loro stridente contrasto.

Questo libro parla del rapporto fra Galileo e alcuni scienziati della sua epoca comunemente considerati come esponenti dello "schieramento avverso". È l’epoca in cui la visione del cosmo cambia radicalmente: la cultura europea non appare più al centro della storia umana, la creazione dell’uomo si sposta all’indietro di una inimmaginabile quantità di anni e, infine, i cieli immutabili della cosmologia aristotelica, i cieli di cristallo, vengono definitivamente superati.

Angelo Secchi was a key figure in 19th century science. An Italian Jesuit and scientist, he helped lead the transition from astronomy to astrophysics and left a lasting legacy in the field. Secchi’s spectral classification of stars was a milestone that paved the way for modern astronomical research. He was also a founder of modern meteorology and an innovator in the design and development of new instruments and methods across disciplines.This contributed volume collects together reviews from an international group of historians, scientists and scholars representing the multiple disciplines where Secchi made significant contributions during his remarkable career. It analyzes both his famous and lesser known pioneering efforts with equal vigor, providing a well-rounded narrative of his life’s work. Beyond his scientific and technological work, his role as a Jesuit priest in Rome during the turbulent years of the mid 19th century is also described and placed in the context of his scientific and civic activities.

The importance of oil for national military-industrial complexes appeared more clearly than ever in the Cold War. This volume argues that the confidential acquisition of geoscientific knowledge was paramount for states, not only to provide for their own energy needs, but also to buttress national economic and geostrategic interests and protect energy security. By investigating the postwar rebuilding and expansion of French and Italian oil industries from the second half of the 1940s to the early 1960s, this book shows how successive administrations in those countries devised strategies of oil exploration and transport, aiming at achieving a higher degree of energy autonomy and setting up powerful oil agencies that could implement those strategies. However, both within and outside their national territories, these two European countries had to confront the new Cold War balances and the interests of the two superpowers.

Following the launch of Sputnik, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization became a prominent sponsor of scientific research in its member countries, a role it retained until the end of the Cold War. As NATO marks sixty years since the establishment of its Science Committee, the main organizational force promoting its science programs, Greening the Alliance is the first book to chart NATO’s scientific patronage—and the motivations behind it—from the organization’s early days to the dawn of the twenty-first century. Drawing on previously unseen documents from NATO’s own archives, Simone Turchetti reveals how its investments were rooted in the alliance’s defense and surveillance needs, needs that led it to establish a program prioritizing environmental studies. A long-overlooked and effective diplomacy exercise, NATO’s “greening” at one point constituted the organization’s chief conduit for negotiating problematic relations between allies. But while Greening the Alliance explores this surprising coevolution of environmental monitoring and surveillance, tales of science advisers issuing instructions to bomb oil spills with napalm or Dr. Strangelove–like experts eager to divert the path of hurricanes with atomic weapons make it clear: the coexistence of these forces has not always been harmonious. Reflecting on this rich, complicated legacy in light of contemporary global challenges like climate change, Turchetti offers both an eye-opening history of international politics and environmental studies and a thoughtful assessment of NATO’s future.

This book provides an integrated approach to the assessment of seismic hazards. The reduction of losses expected by future earthquakes is probably the most important contribution of seismology to society. Large earthquakes occurred in densely populated areas highlight the dramatic inadequacy of a massive portion of the buildings demonstrating the high risks of modern industrial societies. Building earthquake-resistant structures and retrofitting old buildings on a national scale can be extremely expensive and can represent an economic challenge even for developed western countries. Earthquakes can cause also several psychological problems due to the fact that such kind of disasters will result in casualties, collapsing of houses, strategic buildings and facilities and deeply affect a community. Moreover in our society it is necessary to properly plan emergency responses and rescues taking into account any possible secondary effect in order to avoid more casualties.

In questi anni l’utilizzo del Web ha profondamente trasformato la vita quotidiana di uomini e donne, intervenendo sul vissuto contemporaneo oltre che sulle sue forme di comunicazione. Anche il parlare di “salute” oggi non è possibile se non nella consapevolezza di quanto Internet stia cambiando antropologicamente il presente di chi è malato e di chi cura. Il libro "Sanità e web" è la prima indagine realizzata in Italia su quanto il web abbia cambiato i differenti modi di pensare alla salute, tanto da giungere a una sostanziale modificazione della stessa “Alleanza Terapeutica”. I “punti di vista” sono sempre essenziali per una visione d’insieme, per questo nel volume si descrivono, si raccontano e si approfondiscono, attraverso numerose interviste, storia e momenti critici (come il "caso H1N1"), le attese di medici e cittadini, nonché i “punti di vista” delle Istituzioni, delle professioni, del territorio, delle case farmaceutiche, dei media, per ridonare al lettore un quadro complessivo dello stratificato rapporto “sanità & web”. Tentando di indicare dei percorsi per affrontare il futuro in modo più consapevole.
