Everyday Chemicals
What is the likelihood that common chemicals such as bisphenol-A, which is found in plastic water bottles, are harming us? Should shoppers be concerned about pesticide residues on fruits and vegetables in the supermarket produce aisle?

O Voluntário de Auschwitz
Em setembro de 1940, Witold Pilecki, um combatente da Resistência polonesa, se ofereceu para uma missão audaciosa: assumir uma identidade falsa, ser intencionalmente capturado e enviado a um campo de concentração e executar um ataque lá de dentro. Nos dois anos seguintes, Pilecki forjou um exército clandestino dentro de Auschwitz, que sabotou instalações, assassinou informantes e oficiais nazistas e reuniu evidências de abusos terríveis e assassinatos em massa. Apesar da tarefa árdua e necessária, ele foi completamente apagado do registro histórico pelo governo comunista polonês do pós-guerra, permanecendo quase desconhecido para o mundo. Agora, Jack Fairweather, que teve acesso exclusivo a diários escondidos, depoimentos de familiares e arquivos recentemente liberados, oferece um retrato inflexível de sobrevivência, vingança e traição em um dos momentos mais sombrios da história da humanidade.

Un uomo di poche parole
«E io gli ho detto: "guarda che rischi a parlare con me". E lui ha detto: "non me ne importa niente".» «La storia di Lorenzo Perrone è forse il momento più alto della testimonianza di Primo Levi.» Carole Angier «Questo libro è splendido: una ricerca storica scrupolosa, scritta magnificamente.» Ian Thomson In Se questo è un uomo Primo Levi ha scritto: «credo che proprio a Lorenzo debbo di essere vivo oggi». Ma chi era Lorenzo? Lorenzo Perrone, questo il suo nome, era un muratore piemontese che viveva fuori dal reticolato di Auschwitz III-Monowitz. Un uomo povero, burrascoso e quasi analfabeta che tutti i giorni, per sei mesi, portò a Levi una gavetta di zuppa che lo aiutò a comp...
