Tecniche di addestramento militare. Tutti i segreti dei corpi speciali
ill. È un manuale che contiene più di 150 illustrazioni che guidano il lettore, passo dopo passo, verso il pieno controllo mentale, sia che si trovi ad affrontare la morte in un combattimento, sia che cerchi di rimanere vivo mentre fugge dagli inseguitori. Alcuni dei temi centrali esaminati in questo libro sono: la volontà di sopravvivere, come affrontare lo stress del combattimento, il reclutamento e l'addestramento, l'intelligenza e la concentrazione, formare uno spirito di squadra, la leadership militare, le tattiche belliche, la detenzione, la fuga, la sopravvivenza, la diplomazia e i conflitti futuri. Il libro contiene dettagli di alcuni programmi d'addestramento militare finora mai resi noti, ed esamina i loro metodi per valutare l'idoneità fisica e mentale dei candidati al ruolo di soldato speciale. Le didascalie illustrano una vasta gamma di situazioni che i soldati possono trovarsi ad affrontare, e le tecniche più idonee da utilizzare per aumentare le possibilità di sopravvivenza e di successo.

Gioja prese parte attivamente al movimento risorgimentale italiano. L'opera, una vera enciclopedia di economia pubblica e privata, era composta da sei tomi pubblicati tra il 1815-17, siamo purtroppo in possesso solo del sesto tomo. Il volume contiene la continuazione della parte quarta dell'opera "Azione governativa sulla produzione distribuzione consumo delle ricchezze". Seguono le opere complete: "Nuovi metodi d'azione governativa sulla produzione distribuzione consumo delle ricchezze" (Inconvenienti, Metodi d'azione governativa, Consumi liberi, condizionari e ordinati ecc), "Applicazione delle teorie economiche alla stima de fondi" (Circostanze atmosferiche e terrestri, Qualità delle terre, Metodi per conoscere la qualità delle terre, Qualità e quantità dei prodotti, Prodotti animali, Spese primitive, Spese di coltivazione, stima e valore dei fondi ecc...). Alla fine planche ripiegata: "IV influenza goevrnativa sulla produzione, distribuzione, consumo delle ricchezze". Come indicato all'indice p. 428 "La parte VI per ragioni tipografiche si trova nel V volume". Collazionato e risultato completo. In barbe. In buone condizioni. Copertina morbida coeva in discrete condizioni generali con usure e parti mancanti ai margini e dorso. Legatura in discrete condizioni con rotture.

First edition of 1817 of this scarce volume of economy of the famous economist and history writer Melchiorre Gioja (Piacenza 1767- Milano 1829). Gioja took active part to the italian movement of risorgimento. The work, a real aencyclopedia of private and public economy, was made up of six tomes published between 1815-17, unfortunately we only have the sixth tome. The volume contains the continuation of the fourth part of the work "Azione governativa sulla produzione distribuzione consumo delle ricchezze". Then the complete works: "Nuovi metodi d'azione governativa sulla produzione distribuzione consumo delle ricchezze" (Inconvenients, Methods of action of governments, Free consumptions etc), "Applicazione delle teorie economiche alla stima de fondi" (Terrestrial circumstances, Quality of earth, Methods to know the quality of soils, Quality and quantityof products, Animal products, Primitive expenses, Expenses of cultivation, estimate and value ecc...).

Meleca Vincenzo; Surano P. (cur.)
I carri armati poco conosciuti del Regio Esercito. Prototipi, piccole serie e carri esteri. Ediz. illustrata
ill., br. Tra il 1915, quando l'Italia decise di partecipare alla Grande Guerra, e l'8 settembre 1943, data in cui venne reso noto l'armistizio firmato cinque giorni prima a Cassibile, il Regio Esercito progettò, sperimentò e mise in linea un certo numero di carri armati. Scavando, da perfetto segugio, negli annali di istituzioni e industrie l'autore documenta questi progetti e produzioni di carri armati italiani del periodo 1915-1943, alcuni dei quali neppure entrati in fabbricazione. La ricerca diventa occasione di più ampie riflessioni di natura strategica e ideale evidenziando la capacità dell'autore di trasferire il lettore da una semplice disamina tecnica a considerazioni di carattere generale in cui convergono la fatica degli uomini, l'inventiva dei tecnici, le condizioni del nostro Paese, la volontà e i deficit delle istituzioni. Il libro si articola in 4 capitoli suddivisi in numerosi paragrafi, corredati da copiosa documentazione fotografica sia a colori che in b/n, da ampia bibliografia e interessanti note in calce.

Meloy Ellen
Antropologia del turchese. Riflessioni su deserto, mare, pietra e cielo
ill., br. Questa è una raccolta di saggi che esplora il rapporto spirituale, emotivo e biologico fra l'uomo e i colori, il modo in cui questi hanno plasmato l'umanità e come è cambiato il nostro impatto sul pianeta mentre questo legame si logorava nel tempo. Ellen Meloy, scrittrice naturalista che con questo libro è stata finalista al Premio Pulitzer nel 2003, un anno prima di venire a mancare, ci accompagna in un viaggio attraverso territori di straziante bellezza e vulnerabilità, generando nel lettore un rinnovato impulso a prendersene cura. Meloy fa della nostra capacità di percepire i colori un'esperienza squisitamente sensoriale. L'unica vera mappa cui vale la pena di affidarci per conoscere questo mondo in perpetuo cambiamento, osserva, è quella che i nostri sensi sono in grado di tracciare. Se invece di sfruttarla ci limitassimo a godere della natura, se ci abbandonassimo alla sua seduzione, potremo tornare a sentirci vivi e parte di qualcosa di più grande. La domanda fondamentale che questo libro pone è: vogliamo vivere sulla Terra a mo' di ciechi parassiti o contribuire alla sua sopravvivenza come l'istinto ci suggerisce da sempre di fare?
