L'ibrook
Uno spunto alla riflessione oltre gli aspetti pragmatici della rivoluzione editoriale in corso: le implicazioni teoriche del passaggio dal cartaceo all’ebook analizzate a partire dalla prospettiva semiotica, sulle orme di Roman Jakobson e Umberto Eco. Questo ebook parte dalla storia del libro per porre le basi all’analisi della trasformazione dalla carta rilegata al digitale. Proponendo una diversa applicazione della traduzione intersemiotica, conduce a ridefinire la nozione di paratestualità genettiana e rapporto libro/lettore.
Alive on the Andrea Doria!
One half-century later, the catastrophic ramming of the MS Stockholm into the Italian luxury liner the SS Andrea Doria in 1956 is relived in this candid, heartrending account. Author Pierette Domenica Simpson, who, with her grandparents, survived the tragedy off the shoals of Nantucket, shares the human and technical aspects of what has become known as the greatest sea rescue in history. As only an eyewitness can do, the author presents survivors' recollections in dramatic vignettes that meticulously re-create a horrific event-one that could have been another Titanic. Both poor immigrants and wealthy travelers give their accounts of ultimate despair and infinite elation after staring at their own reflections in the black ocean that night and seeing death stare back. Equally dramatic are the revelations of new facts exposed by nautical experts from two continents facts that solve the "mystery" of who was to blame for this most improbable collision between two ships on the open seas.
Calabria editoriale
L’editoria è cambiata: ha visto il libro cartaceo tramutarsi in prodotto virtuale, generando uno stravolgimento nella memoria collettiva, una vera e propria rivoluzione che colpisce tutta la filiera, dall’editore al lettore, passando per la distribuzione e la diffusione. Scopo del presente lavoro è compiere una riflessione sulla rivoluzione in corso nel mondo dell’editoria libraria calabrese; questa viene rapportata con l’innovazione tecnologica, che forse è destinata a divenire epocale per il mondo dell’editoria e dell’informazione: l’e-book. Si cerca di capire come gli editori calabresi stanno affrontando l’esigenza di mettersi al passo con i tempi e se nel territorio calabrese l’editoria digitale è una realtà o ancora solo un progetto lontano. Partendo dalle origini delle prime tipografie calabresi, viene presentata una ricostruzione storica che interessa la stampa periodica e libraria sino a giungere all’attività editoriale moderna.
Roman Fever
During the last 1500 years, Rome was the inspiration of artists, the coronation stage of German emperors, the distant desire of pilgrims, and the seat of the Roman popes. Yet Rome also lies within the northern range of P. falciparum malaria, the deadliest strain of the disease, against which northern Europeans had no intrinsic or acquired defenses. As a result, Rome lured a countless number of unacclimated transalpine Europeans to their deaths in the period from 500 to 1850 AD. This book examines how Rome's allure to European visitors and its resident malaria species impacted the historical development of Europe. It covers the environmental and biological factors at play and focuses on two of the periods when malaria potentially had the greatest impact on the continent: the heyday of the medieval German Empire and its conflicts with the papacy (c. 800-1300) and the Protestant Reformation (c.1500). Through explorations into the history of religion, empire, disease, and culture, this book tells the story of how the veritable capital of the world became the graveyard of nations.

New Insight in Pediatric Cardiology: From Basic to Therapeutics
Congenital heart diseases are the most common neonatal malformations, ranging from 8 to 15/1000 live births in various communities. Improvement of knowledge in the genetic and etio-pathogenic aspects of these malformations as well as the technical advances of diagnostic and therapeutic tools have brought about a significant improvement in overall long-term patient outcome over the last few decades. This e-book is an update on the most recent genetic, diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of this pediatric cardiology. Specifically, the book explains, in detail, recent acquisitions in the field of interaction between the genome and heart development, advances in diagnostic non-invasive techniques and novel therapeutic applications of the percutaneous and “hybrid” cardiologic/surgical procedures. These developments in diagnostics and therapeutics will be extremely valuable for both pediatric and adult cardiologists treating patients with congenital heart defects.
