Story
A preeminent geneticist hunts the Neanderthal genome to answer the biggest question of them all: what does it mean to be human? What can we learn from the genes of our closest evolutionary relatives? Neanderthal Man tells the story of geneticist Svante Pbo’s mission to answer that question, beginning with the study of DNA in Egyptian mummies in the early 1980s and culminating in his sequencing of the Neanderthal genome in 2009.

Story
A Short History of Nearly Everything is Bill Bryson's fascinating and humorous quest to understand everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization. He takes subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us, like geology, chemistry, and particle physics, and aims to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science. In the company of some extraordinary scientists, Bill Bryson reveals the world in a way most of us have never seen it before.

Story
As scientific and observational evidence on global warming piles up every day, questions of economic policy in this central environmental topic have taken center stage. But as author and prominent Yale economist William Nordhaus observes, the issues involved in understanding global warming and slowing its harmful effects are complex and cross disciplinary boundaries. For example, ecologists see global warming as a threat to ecosystems, utilities as a debit to their balance sheets, and farmers as a hazard to their livelihoods.

Story
When leading Princeton physicist Paul Steinhardt began working in the 1980s, scientists thought they knew all the conceivable forms of matter. The Second Kind of Impossible is the story of Steinhardt’s 35-year-long quest to challenge conventional wisdom. It begins with a curious geometric pattern that inspires two theoretical physicists to propose a radically new type of matter - one that raises the possibility of new materials with never-before-seen properties but that violates laws set in stone for centuries.

In 1999, few people had thought to examine the effects of climate on civilization. Now, due in part to the groundbreaking work of archaeologist Brian Fagan, climate change is a central issue. Revised and updated 10 years after its first publication, Floods, Famines and Emperors remains the definitive account of how the world's best-known climate event had an indelible impact on history.

Story
In 1865 a broken Admiral Robert FitzRoy locked himself in his dressing room and cut his throat. His grand meteorological project had failed. Yet only a decade later, FitzRoy’s storm-warning system and ‘forecasts’ would return, the model for what we use today. In an age when a storm at sea was evidence of God’s great wrath, 19th-century meteorologists had to fight against convention and religious dogma.

Over the past 20 years, paleontologists have made tremendous fossil discoveries, including fossils that mark the growth of whales, manatees, and seals from land mammals and the origins of elephants, horses, and rhinos. Today there exists an amazing diversity of fossil humans, suggesting we walked upright long before we acquired large brains, and new evidence from molecules that enable scientists to decipher the tree of life as never before.

I tragici e recenti avvenimenti della guerra che sta scuotendo l’Europa e il mondo intero hanno messo in crisi tutto ciò che fino a poco tempo fa consideravamo una certezza: non solo la pace, ma anche la disponibilità delle materie prime, e quindi il loro reperimento e stoccaggio, lasciandoci con quesiti importanti sul futuro energetico. In questa nuova pubblicazione, Andrea Moccia ci darà gli strumenti per conoscere la materia, capire quali sono le armi a nostra disposizione per combattere la profonda crisi energetica in corso e rispondere alle domande che quest’ultima ha sollevato nell’opinione pubblica.

Draghi, ciclopi, giganti, unicorni, fenici. Quando gli antichi si imbattevano in resti di animali sconosciuti, subito li attribuivano a creature fantastiche. Poi gli scienziati hanno dimostrato che si trattava solo di fantasie ancestrali: i mostri non esistono, oggi lo sappiamo tutti; eppure la spiegazione che gli studiosi hanno dato di quei reperti è stata addirittura più terrificante: prima di noi, una miriade di altri viventi abitava il nostro pianeta, ma ora non ci sono più. Sulla Terra, infatti, nulla è per sempre.

The science is overwhelming; the facts are in. The planet is heating up at an alarming rate and the results are everywhere to be seen. Yet, as time runs out, climate progress is blocked by the men who are profiting from the burning of the planet: energy moguls like the Koch brothers and Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson. Powerful politicians like Senators Mitch McConnell and Jim Inhofe, who receive massive contributions from the oil and coal industries. Most of these men are too intelligent to truly believe that climate change is not a growing crisis.

Siamo abituati a concepire la Storia come il susseguirsi sanguinoso di imperi e dinastie. Ma il cammino dell'uomo può essere studiato anche in ambiti specifici del suo ingegno - nell'arte, nella filosofia o nelle scienze. Questo audiolibro propone una chiave molto stimolante attraverso cui "ricapitolare" la storia dell'umanità: quella che vede l'essenza del nostro genere nell'"essere artefice". Perché, a pensarci bene, dietro ogni passo dell'uomo c'è sempre un'invenzione o un manufatto che ha avuto nei secoli imprevedibili sviluppi.
