Nonostante tutto
Nonostante tutto è una storia di speranza, di duro lavoro, di affetti e di vita. La tenacia della protagonista, e autrice, si mostra nelle molteplici vicissitudini, episodi che si snodano tra le luminose coste della Calabria e la vivace città di Torino, durante un breve periodo trascorso a Piacenza e nella bella, ma non sempre ospitale, cittadina di Trebisacce. Dopo un primo, tumultuoso matrimonio, accompagnato dall’alternarsi di eventi dolorosi e gioiosi, a seguito di tante fatiche fisiche e morali, Letizia sente di potersi commuovere solo pregando e rivolgendosi alla fede, ma teme di aver perduto per sempre la capacità di lasciarsi andare completamente alla felicità e di emozionarsi....
The Exoplanets
Where is ET and how does he look like? The fast rate of discovery of exoplanets is telling us that millions of planets in the universe are most probably teeming with life. But the extremely small probability that life, once born, evolves into homo sapiens tells us that ET is most probably just a bacterium. A possible answer to the Fermi paradox (‘where is everybody?’) is therefore: they are all out there, on millions of planets, but bacteria do not build spaceships. Homo sapiens is alone in a universe teeming with life.
Etno Rais
In Cecchetti’s verses there is a sort of fusion, sometimes ironic, of lyricism and intellectualism, an incessant succession of cultural interpolations, mythological and Christian afterthoughts on which the weft and warp, the whole itinerary and the passages of his lyrical discourse, his poetic proposal in which echoes and references of every era and latitude are spread: the action and the dream, the life of the present and the history, the mythology in a fascinating dialectic of techniques and meanings. From Preface Sergio Cecchetti was born in 1975 in Civitavecchia (Italy). Along with the poetic activity, the musician is added, some of the texts in this collection, in fact, are born as songs. Etno Rais is his first publication.
Frontline

The East Wind
The year is 1942, Robert Mann, a brilliant young American physicist of German birth, joins Allied Intelligence. When the assassination of a top Nazi official presents OSS and MI-6 with a rare chance to penetrate the Third Reich, Robert volunteers. His cover survives one nerve-racking encounter after another as he infiltrates Hitler’s atom bomb program. Then comes the ultimate test: entry into the home of Effi Zell—wife of Christoph Zell—the man Robert is impersonating. Tension builds toward a crescendo, then collapses as Christoph and Effi fall in love. Their torrid affair morphs into a man-woman resistance team. Again, the tension builds… Robert and Effi perfect the art of deception...
Images of Europe
This book deals with the fundamental semantics of images of Europe, which consist of valences, mirror beliefs and affectivities. This is why it relaunches the importance of the European discourse in its symbolic dimension. As such, it explores the many images of Europe, or rather the many images through which European discourse is actually constituted in daily life, in search of their enunciative responsibility in today’s world for determining the current “State of the Union”. The identity of the European continent is based on a millenary tension between universalism and particularism: images of Europe have in fact been alternately inspired, over the centuries, by a model of homogeneit...

Muslims in the Margin
The involvement of minorities in politics has been the subject of a considerable number of studies. However, these studies are rarely concerned with the political role in Western Europe of both Islam as a mobilising factor, and the Muslims as a religious group comparable with other confessional groups creating political parties. The importance of political participation of Muslims for the improvement of their social, economic, and cultural position as well as for the establishing of religious infrastructure, has been widely recognized by politicians and scientists alike. As relative newcomers in Western Europe, most Muslims still occupy a marginal position, which makes their active political...
The Extraordinary Life and Times of the Otherwise Unremarkable Andrew G

Through his encounters with triumph and disaster, he shares his unique perspective on life, as well as his experiences with some of the most celebrated ‘wheeler-dealers’ in Saudi Arabia.
