Troilo Vincenzo
Stringimi forte la mano, col tuo amore riuscirò!
brossura Non c'è niente che non si possa ottenere con il potere dell'amore; l'amore è la forza suprema che cosmologi e astrofisici chiamano ancora forza oscura, è l'unico buon cemento che porta alla vera unità e sintesi delle religioni e quindi alla vera pace del mondo.

Uberti Gabriele
Vandecum perizia biomeccanica
brossura La biomeccanica del colpo di frusta è uno degli argomenti più controversi del lavoro di un tecnico ricostruttore poiché è complesso quantificare in modo rigoroso le accelerazioni a carico degli occupanti di un veicolo tamponato. L'obbiettivo di questo vandecum è di descrivere la fenomenologia medica del colpo di frusta ma di spiegare come, nei tamponamenti a bassa velocità, l'entità dei danni ai veicoli non sia un indicatore affidabile della velocità relativa con cui gli stessi sono arrivati all'urto.

Citroen Typenkunde, Alle Serien-Automobile ab 1950
Hardcover, 1. Auflage, 160 Seiten, 79 Farbfotos, 22 S/W Fotos, 10 farbige Abbildungen, Format 17,8 x 24,9 cm, gebunden, Fine copy. Including an index. ISBN 9783768819862. Die franzosische Automobilmarke Citroen hat fur die Entwicklung des modernen Autos eine grosse Bedeutung. Mehrfach losten die Fahrzeuge mit dem Doppelwinkel auf dem Kuhler wichtige Evolutionsschritte im Fahrzeug-bau aus. Dabei verband sich die technische Innovation haufig mit einem Schuss Extravaganz in der gestalterischen Umsetzung: Citroen, das war immer auch die Marke fur Individualisten mit Freude am personlichen Stil.<br>Besonders einpragsam waren dabei die seit nunmehr 53 Jahren produzierten Oberklasse-Pkw mit ihrer umfangreichen Hydraulik, vom 6H uber DS, SM, CX und XM bis zum heutigen C6. Besonders innovativ zeigten sich die Mittelklassewagen, vom GS/GSA uber die Modellreihen BX und Xantia bis hin zum aktuellen C5. Fuhrend in den Verkaufszahlen aber waren stets die uberaus popularen Kleinwagen, vom minimalistischen 2CV (der legendaren ?Ente?) und dessen Derivaten (insgesamt rund 9 Millionen Einheiten) uber Visa und AX bis zum aktuellen Trio C1, C2 und C3.<br>Dieses Buch stellt alle Serien-Automobile von Citroen seit 1950 mit ihren technischen Daten und den erreichten Produktionszahlen vor. Dazu gehoren auch die sehr erfolgreichen leichten Transporter von der Kastenente bis zum modernen Evergreen Berlingo.

Bewegte Zeiten diese Buchreihe widmet sich den Fahrzeugen, mit denen sich Deutschland in der zweiten Halfte des 20. Jahrhunderts motorisierte, und dem besonderen Charme dieser Epoche. Der zwolfte Band prasentiert die legendare ?Ente? des franzosischen Herstellers Citroen.<br>Zwischen 1959 und 1992 wurden in Deutschland mehr als 250 000 Exemplare dieses unverwechselbaren Automobils verkauft, weltweit waren es insgesamt etwa 3,8 Millionen. Das hochbeinige, robuste Fahrzeug (in Frankreich seit 1948 auf dem Markt) mit dem knappen Herstellerkurzel 2CV verfugte bis 1970 uber ganze 16 PS, am Ende waren es 29. ?Weniger ist mehr? schien uberhaupt die zentrale Aussage dieses Autos zu sein. Sein spartanischer Charme begeisterte frankophile Individualisten ebenso wie die konsumkritischen Jungakademiker. Eines allerdings hatte der 2CV im Uberfluss: Federungskomfort. Und um an warmen Tagen mit aufgerolltem Verdeck und hoch geklappten Fenstern weit nach aussen geneigt durch Kurven zu schwingen und jede Oberklassenlimousine spiessig aussehen zu lassen ? dafur war der Entenmotor jederzeit stark genug?<br>Die ?Ente? war fur viele ihrer Fans weniger Fahrzeug als Lebenseinstellung. Sie war ein Statement fur Lebensfreude statt Leistungsdruck, fur Geschmack statt Protzerei. Ihr grosser Erfolg hierzulande beruhte deshalb unter anderem auf einem ganz und gar untechnischen Aspekt: Sie bot die Moglichkeit, mit sehr begrenzten Mitteln Stil zu zeigen.

Mikael Jansson : Speed of Life
Hardcover, 304 pages, ENG, 430 x 290 x 30 mm, in very good condition !! Full Page Coloured Photographs, Very Large Size !. ISBN 9783865214119. Mikael Jansson photographs Formula 1: cars, drivers, mechanics, race tracks, pit lanes, and spectators. But behind the colorful surface, the glistening bodywork, the noisy engines and the smell of burning rubber lies a fundamental concern with the power of the image -- both in terms of photographic technique and in regard to meaning within contemporary culture. How to depict speed, how to show the impact of logos and of car manufacturers without succumbing to the rules of the commercial game? Jansson's images are both grainy and perfectly focused. Speed of Life is revealed in everything from the passing car, the reflections on the visor of a driver's helmet, from the break dust of the opening lap to the rubber particles from deteriorating tires at the end of the race. These still photographs brim with movement and action; in their very stasis they show the potency of speed. His images have motorsport as their theme but they abstract it to become fundamental for understanding the tempo of our present culture.

United Auto Workers; Chrysler Workers Strike
The Rise of the UAW and Industrial Labor Militancy in Depression Era Detroit: Chrysler Strike Press Photo Archive 1937
1937. Labor Organization Chrysler strike press photo archive documenting the 1937 sit down strikes and picketing campaigns at Dodge Main and other Chrysler facilities in Detroit and Highland Park Michigan during the decisive phase of industrial unionization in the American automobile industry. The archive records workers occupying plants mass picket mobilizations outside factory gates anti injunction demonstrations and violence connected to the struggle between Chrysler management the United Automobile Workers and competing independent unions. These events unfolded only weeks after the February 1937 settlement of the Flint sit down strike against General Motors which established the UAW as a major industrial union and accelerated organizing efforts across Detroit's auto plants. Chrysler initially resisted recognition obtaining court injunctions ordering workers to evacuate occupied factories while thousands of laborers remained inside the plants or formed flying squadrons to block strikebreakers from entering. The scenes here capture the atmosphere of confrontation in Depression era industrial labor conflict at a time when mass production workers forced some of the largest corporations in the United States to negotiate with organized labor.<br /> <br /> Photo archive of 6 silver gelatin press photographs from 6 x 8 inches to 8 x 10 inches Detroit and Highland Park Michigan 1937. Affixed captions on versos with filing stamps dated March and August 1937. Crowds of striking workers gather outside Dodge Division and Chrysler factory gates beneath signs reading "Dodge Division of Chrysler Corporation Employment Office" and "We Are Here To Stay Dept. 82." Several men hold placards reading "82 is Sittin Too" "Spirit of 1937" and "Fence Jumper" while an effigy labeled "Injunction" hangs over the crowd in open defiance of a court order directing workers to vacate occupied plants. A large calendar board records the passing days of the sit down occupation beginning March 8 1937. Another scene shows relatives and supporters communicating with occupying workers through numbered department cards hung along the perimeter fence after union organizers established an improvised locating system for men inside the plant. One caption identifies "flying squadrons" directing picket activity outside Chrysler headquarters. The latest photograph records Frank A. Dillon identified as president of an independent Chrysler union receiving questioning from Detective Sergeant Harry Scher after an alleged beating connected to union violence that led Chrysler officials to temporarily close a plant pending investigation.<br /> <br /> The Chrysler strike formed part of the larger wave of industrial labor upheaval that reshaped American manufacturing during the New Deal. Passage of the Wagner Act in 1935 legally protected collective bargaining but enforcement depended on workers physically preventing corporations from continuing production with replacement labor. Sit down strikes became one of the most controversial tactics of the era because occupying workers halted machinery while denying employers access to their own factories. The archive preserves not only the mechanics of strike organization but also the public theater of industrial conflict in Depression era Detroit: marching pickets improvised communication systems anti injunction symbolism and massive worker assemblies outside factory gates. Moderate surface wear occasional creasing editorial markings and toning to versos with captions firmly affixed; images remain sharp and highly legible. Overall very good condition. unknown

United Auto Workers; CIO Strike
United Auto Workers and CIO Strike and Bargaining Action Demanding Labor Reform in the U.S. Auto Industry Photo Archive 1938-1949
1938. Labor Organizing United Auto Workers and CIO labor photograph archive documenting strike action union leadership and collective bargaining negotiations during the expansion of organized labor in the American automobile industry 1938-1949. The archive traces the period immediately following the 1935 Wagner Act when unions gained federal legal protection for collective bargaining but still faced violent resistance from corporations police departments and municipal governments. Several scenes connect directly to the years surrounding the 1937 Battle of the Overpass in Dearborn when Ford security men beat UAW organizers attempting to distribute union literature outside the River Rouge complex and to the broader wave of sit-down strikes and factory shutdowns that forced General Motors Chrysler and eventually Ford into formal negotiations with the UAW. The captions identify senior labor figures including Walter Reuther R. J. Thomas George Addes and Richard T. Leonard establishing the archive as documentation not merely of rank-and-file unrest but of the institutional consolidation of the UAW-CIO into one of the most powerful industrial unions in the United States. The material also records how labor disputes extended beyond factory gates into courts city halls state legislatures and police jurisdictions revealing the political dimensions of industrial unionism during the New Deal and early Cold War years.<br /> <br /> Photo archive of 12 Large silver gelatin press photographs one large panorama measuring 9.5 x 16.5 inches 11 press photos ranging from 6 x 8 inches to 8 x 10 inches primarily Detroit Dearborn South Gate and Atlantic City circa 1938-1949. A large-format scene dated 1939 records tear gas and street violence during a UAW strike at the Fisher Body plant with clouds of gas spreading across trolley tracks as helmeted police advance toward crowds of fleeing workers and spectators. Another image shows hundreds of demonstrators carrying a massive American flag through downtown Detroit toward City Hall during protests following clashes between union pickets and police at Federal Screw Works; the verso caption notes approximately forty injuries and references accusations of "police brutality" raised before city council. Additional photographs show UAW-CIO officials seated at conference tables negotiating contracts and appearing in municipal hearing rooms beneath desk microphones and courthouse lighting. Captions identify figures including Walter Reuther George Addes and R. J. Thomas while a 1940 Dearborn caption records the arrest of union leaders for distributing handbills asserting workers' rights under the National Labor Relations Act. South Gate strike scenes outside a General Motors facility show workers carrying placards demanding a thirty percent wage increase while Rev. Louis R. Loe conducts prayer services along the picket line. Convention and leadership photographs from Atlantic City and Washington document labor leaders gathered under the authority of Samuel Gompers and later CIO leadership structures linking local strike activity to national labor organization.<br /> <br /> The archive illustrates the transformation of the automobile industry from one of the nation's most violently anti-union industrial sectors into the center of postwar collective bargaining power. Ford Motor Company resisted union recognition longer than General Motors or Chrysler relying on private security forces local police cooperation labor espionage and anti-handbill ordinances to suppress organizing inside and outside its plants. Several captions directly reference these legal confrontations including arrests tied to leaflet distribution and disputes over municipal authority to restrict labor organizing in public space. By the late 1940s many of the same figures shown here were negotiating contracts that established wage standards pensions grievance procedures and health benefits that reshaped industrial employment across the United States. Creasing edge wear scattered minor losses adhesive residue and newsroom markings to versos; images remain clear and intact overall. Overall good condition. unknown
