This book gathers more than 150 peer-reviewed papers presented at the 5th INTBAU International Annual Event, held in Milan, Italy, in July 2017. The book represents an invaluable and up-to-date international exchange of research, case studies and best practice to confront the challenges of designing places, building cultural landscapes and enabling the development of communities. The papers investigate methodologies of representation, communication and valorization of historic urban landscapes and cultural heritage, monitoring conservation management, cultural issues in heritage assessment, placemaking and local identity enhancement, as well as reconstruction of settlements affected by disasters. With contributions from leading experts, including university researchers, professionals and policy makers, the book addresses all who seek to understand and address the challenges faced in the protection and enhancement of the heritage that has been created.
This book presents some outcomes, of a broader research still on going, about the vision and the opera of a Master of the Roman School of Architectural Drawing, Mario Marchi (1900-1996). It offers an overview of his extensive work by combining, in the form of an Atlas, authorial Drawings and original Photographs of some famous masterpieces.
The book investigates the theme of Modernism (1920-1960 and its epigones) as an integral part of tangible and intangible cultural heritage which contains the result of a whole range of disciplines whose aim is to identify, document and preserve the memory of the past and the value of the future. Including several chapters, it contains research results relating to cultural heritage, more specifically Modernism, and current digital technologies. This makes it possible to record and evaluate the changes that both undergo: the first one, from a material point of view, the second one from the research point of view, which integrates the traditional approach with an innovative one.

I congressi a scadenza periodica sono il termometro per misurare lo stato di salute di una Società Scientifica; infatti il confronto sistematico della produzione scientifica è l'unico parametro che permette di accertare l'evolversi della conoscenza. L'UID, dopo alcuni anni di torpore, ha mostrato notevoli segni di vitalità nel XXXIV Convegno del 2012 svoltosi a Roma; in quella occasione, infatti, furono presentate oltre sessanta relazioni, di cui almeno un terzo di buon livello. Il XXXV Convegno, dal titolo Patrimoni e siti UNESCO. Memoria, Misura e Armonia del quale mi accingo a presentare gli Atti, ha evidenziato una crescita esponenziale dei contributi, tanto che sono pervenute circa c...

At first sight, Francesca Salucci has it all: a beautiful house in Fiji, a loving family and a promising new job. Yet, her life is not as tranquil as it seems. Her former career might be a thing of the past, but her affair with the son of a dangerous mafioso is anything but forgotten. The world she worked hard to build is turning on its head, and her son is in danger. But how can she protect him when she can’t tell her allies from her enemies? From an Afghanistan war zone to the stunning Fijian coastline, from the pomp of award ceremonies to secretive Venice, Serpent Sting unravels one family’s desire for revenge and another’s quest for peace. Serpent Sting is the second book in the Serpent series.
