Greta's Story
The inspiring true story of Greta Thunberg, a young eco-activist whose persistence sparked a global movement. You are never too young to make a difference. Ever since she learned about climate change, Greta Thunberg couldn’t understand why politicians weren’t treating it as an emergency. In August 2018, temperatures in Sweden reached record highs, fires raged across the country, and fifteen-year-old Greta decided to stop waiting for political leaders to take action. Instead of going to school on Friday, she made a sign and went on strike in front of Stockholm’s parliament building. Greta’s solo protest grew into the global Fridays for Future—or School Strike 4 Climate—movement, which millions have now joined. She has spoken at COP24 (the UN summit on climate change) and has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. This timely, unofficial biography is her story, but also that of many others around the world willing to fight against the indifference of the powerful for a better future.
Making the Global Economy Work for Everyone
The Covid-19 pandemic has revealed the weaknesses of globalisation, exposed the fragility of the current growth model, and accelerated the ongoing tech revolution. This book is an in-depth analysis of these weaknesses and fragilities in the context of sustainability.

Empathy
This book examines the concept of empathy in sociological and neuroscientific discourses using innovative perspectives from sociology and social neuroscience. Through a transdisciplinary approach, the author delves into the history of empathy and its social, cultural and semantic changes, and then reviews the conception of empathy in neuroscientific discourse. Distancing itself from the traditional neuroscientific literature of biological universalism, this volume offers an innovative perspective on empathy. It also opens a new avenue for neurosociology, which is presented as the discipline that can emphasize all the cultural and emotional aspects that govern empathy. Key themes addressed in the text are: empathy in all its meanings, from Hume to TenHouten; neurosociology as one possible avenue for embracing the cultural and neuroscientific aspects of empathy; and empirical research. A valuable resource for sociology students and academics in the field of empathy and neurosociology, this book is also of interest to those studying sociological thought, and social neuroscience.

Il mondo di carta
Succedeva intorno al 1450, a Magonza. Toccò a Johannes Gensfleisch, detto Gutenberg, un geniale cinquantenne, il merito dell’invenzione dei caratteri tipografici mobili. Il debutto avvenne con un libro che resterà per sempre nella storia dell’editoria, una Bibbia stampata (tra il 1452 e il 1456) in due volumi. La stampa si diffuse rapidamente. Da allora all’era digitale il libro e il giornale hanno vissuto una straordinaria avventura. Il mondo di carta presenta il profilo di editori di libri, riviste e quotidiani, che hanno resistito alle mutazioni dei mercati e, passati attraverso ristrutturazioni societarie, sono arrivati fino ai nostri giorni.
