Una photogallery di "quadri" a chiavi interpretative multiple: è questo il risultato dell'incontro tra le fotografie di Pier Paolo Tralli, in delicato bianco e nero, e il testo a fronte, in stile libero, che esse hanno ispirato in Claudio Strano. Dall'incrocio esce un affresco insolito della loro comune città, Ferrara, speciale e un po' spettrale, con atmosfere alla Edward Hopper in salsa padana e una poesia, anch'essa, "black & white", che si sofferma sulle parabole esistenziali dell'uomo e sugli avvitamenti del suo tempo. Con prefazione di Piero Polimeni. Dagli scatti di una piccola compatta, il racconto della città ariostesca "fotografata" nel 500° anniversario della prima edizione dell'Orlando Furioso.
Broadband Wireless Access is a highly challenging and fast changing area of multimedia radio communications. These papers on the subject are the proceedings of the 9th Tyrrhenian Workshop, held in Lerici, Italy, September 1997. They provide a prospect on the state of the art and future development, with a sufficiently wide focus to cover technological, architectural and regulatory issues. Emphasis is given to those advances of digital signal processing techniques, microwave mono lithic integrated circuits and smart antennae that will allow the design of low cost user terminals with advanced capabilities. Specific attention is also devoted to the protocols these new terminals will use to access the radio medium, and to the kind of services that will eventually be provided to the end-user in the future. With contributions from worldwide experts, the material presented here is a timely and high-level overview of the field, and as well as being informative is a useful tool for promoting further investigation into the area of multimedia radio communications.

In the post–World War I American climate of isolationism, nativism, democratic expansion of civic rights, and consumerism, Italian-born star Rodolfo Valentino and Italy’s dictator Benito Mussolini became surprising paragons of authoritarian male power and mass appeal. Drawing on extensive archival research in the United States and Italy, Giorgio Bertellini’s work shows how their popularity, both political and erotic, largely depended on the efforts of public opinion managers, including publicists, journalists, and even ambassadors. Beyond the democratic celebrations of the Jazz Age, the promotion of their charismatic masculinity through spectacle and press coverage inaugurated the now-familiar convergence of popular celebrity and political authority. This is the first volume in the new Cinema Cultures in Contact series, coedited by Giorgio Bertellini, Richard Abel, and Matthew Solomon.
This book gathers the latest advances, innovations, and applications in the field of innovative biosystems engineering for sustainable agriculture, forestry and food production. Focusing on the challenges of implementing sustainability in various contexts in the fields of biosystems engineering, it shows how the research has addressed the sustainable use of renewable and non-renewable resources. It also presents possible solutions to help achieve sustainable production. The Mid-Term Conference of the Italian Association of Agricultural Engineering (AIIA) is part of a series of conferences, seminars and meetings that the AIIA organizes, together with other public and private stakeholders, to promote the creation and dissemination of new knowledge in the sector. The contributions included in the book were selected by means of a rigorous peer-review process, and offer an extensive and multidisciplinary overview of interesting solutions in the field of innovative biosystems engineering for sustainable agriculture.
The book provides an understanding of how service design and design thinking could address the needs of organisations in tackling processes of transformations which include changes in the way people behave, interact and grow. It addresses the demand of human resource management functions, which are primarily called to manage such transformations about what regards people, namely the employees. It suggests a framework that defines a course of action, based on design features, aimed at supporting organisations in facing organisational change.The book will be of interest of researchers in the field of service design, design thinking and HR management, consultants/practitioners working in those fields, and educators that would like to train learners in becoming human resource designers.
