Going Somewhere
Going Somewhere is a dynamic autobiographical narrative about Andrew Marino's career in science. With a depth and drama that arise from personal involvement, the book explores an exceptionally wide range of science-related matters: the relation between electrical energy and life; the influence of corporate and military power on science; the role of self-interest on the part of federal and state agencies that deal with human health, especially the NIH and the FDA; the importance of cross-examining scientific experts in legal hearings; the erroneous view of nature that results when the perspective of physics is extended into biology; the pivotal role of deterministic chaos theory in at least s...
Becoming Neapolitan
2011 Winner of the Phyllis Goodhart Gordan Book Prize of the Renaissance Society of America Naples in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries managed to maintain a distinct social character while under Spanish rule. John A. Marino's study explores how the population of the city of Naples constructed their identity in the face of Spanish domination. As Western Europe’s largest city, early modern Naples was a world unto itself. Its politics were decentralized and its neighborhoods diverse. Clergy, nobles, and commoners struggled to assert political and cultural power. Looking at these three groups, Marino unravels their complex interplay to show how such civic rituals as parades and festival...

Introduction to San Marino
San Marino is a small republic located in the northeastern part of the Italian Peninsula, with a population of just over 33,000 as of 2021. It is surrounded by the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy and is one of the smallest countries in the world. San Marino is the oldest functioning republic in the world, having been established in 301 A.D., and is also the world's smallest landlocked country. San Marino is made up of nine municipalities or "castelli," each with its own distinct character and cultural heritage. The country prides itself on its historic landmarks, including the Three Towers of San Marino, which have stood for centuries and are symbols of the country's independence and resilience. The economy of San Marino is primarily based on tourism, as visitors from around the world flock to see its natural beauty and cultural wonders. Despite its small size, San Marino is home to a thriving artistic community, with many local artists and artisans showcasing their work in galleries and exhibitions throughout the country.
Marino Sanudo Torsello, The Book of the Secrets of the Faithful of the Cross
This is the first full translation of Marino Sanudo Torsello's Secreta fidelium Crucis to be made into English. The work itself is a piece of crusading propaganda following the fall of Acre in 1291, written between 1300 and 1321, but it includes much of historical relevance along with interesting observations on the early history of Jerusalem and the Crusader Kingdom. The translation is based upon the text edited by Jacques Bongars in 1611. There is an introduction that contextualises the book, its author, his sources and his audience. The notes provide essential information to clarify internal textual references and allusions, as well as the role of Biblical references in Sanudo's grand des...
