Winter 8000
'He appeared, without a word, in the tent's entrance, covered in ice. He looked like anyone would after spending over twenty-four hours in a hurricane at over 8,000 metres. In winter. In the Karakoram. He was so exhausted he couldn't speak.' Of all the games mountaineers play on the world's high mountains, the hardest – and cruellest – is climbing the fourteen peaks over 8,000 metres in the bitter cold of winter. Ferocious winds that can pick you up and throw you down, freezing temperatures that burn your lungs and numb your bones, weeks of psychological torment in dark isolation: these are adventures for those with an iron will and a ruthless determination. For the first time, award-win...
La voce del ghiaccio
A 44 anni e con 44 spedizioni alle spalle, nel mezzo di una straordinaria carriera alpinistica, Simone Moro ha sentito l'esigenza di raccontarsi. La passione per l'esplorazione e l'avventura gli ha permesso di accettare i rischi che comporta l'alpinismo, e di comprendere il valore nascosto in ogni rinuncia, importante tanto, e forse più, di qualsiasi successo. Questo libro è stato scritto quasi interamente durante un'ascensione a un ottomila in Pakistan, il Nanga Parbat, il letale "re dei monti". Solo tra quei ghiacci, Simone ha trovato la concentrazione necessaria per tornare alle sue imprese passate: con un'autenticità emozionante, l'alpinista conduce i lettori da una tappa all'altra di un cammino unico che lo ha visto tentare un sogno "quasi impossibile". Affrontare le massime vette del pianeta nella stagione più ostile, l'inverno.
One Blue Child
Radical changes in our understanding of health and healthcare are reshaping twenty-first-century personhood. In the last few years, there has been a great influx of public policy and biometric technologies targeted at engaging individuals in their own health, increasing personal responsibility, and encouraging people to "self-manage" their own care. One Blue Child examines the emergence of self-management as a global policy standard, focusing on how healthcare is reshaping our relationships with ourselves and our bodies, our families and our doctors, companies, and the government. Comparing responses to childhood asthma in New Zealand and the Czech Republic, Susanna Trnka traces how ideas ab...
