"Energy and Climate Change" is a book that explores the complex interplay between energy, civilization, and climate change. Inspired by his old passion for power plants studied at the Polytechnic University of Milan, the author takes the reader on a journey through history and the challenges of the future.
In the
past, the main issues concerning power plants were the stability of large dams
and the transportation of coal. Today, the situation has changed dramatically,
with air pollution, solar and wind power, and hydroelectric power plants
dominating the discussion. The author provides a unique perspective on the
evolution of the energy industry, including the promise of atomic power plants,
which were starting to be studied at the Polytechnic University.
The book
delves into the topic of climate change, which has become one of the most
pressing issues of our time. Drawing on his extensive research and
participation in COP meetings and conferences, the author offers a
comprehensive summary of the current state of knowledge on the topic. He
explores the global energy situation in 2019 and the dangerous trap we face in
our dependence on fossil fuels.
The author
examines the relationship between climate change and energy, and the role of
international agreements such as the Paris Agreement and the Glasgow COP26. He
also provides insights into how the Earth's atmosphere works, the climate of
the Earth since its beginning, and the behavior of the oceans. The book covers
dendroclimatology and volcanoes, and explores the relationship between climate
and human evolution, from prehistory to ancient history.
The author
concludes with a discussion of the Northern Sea Route and the human climate
saga. "Energy and Climate Change" is a must-read for anyone
interested in the pressing issue of climate change and its relationship with
energy and civilization.

Just
published in English, my long work on artificial intelligence.
“This book
is a comprehensive overview, understandable even to those not in the field, of
this recent chapter opened by computer science. The many internet links
scattered throughout the various chapters are a useful and selective way to
allow the reader to quickly delve deeper into topics on artificial
intelligence. The book details the three fundamental conferences that gave rise
to modern artificial intelligence: the first in Dartmouth in 1956, the second
in Ascona (CH) in 2006, and the third in Asilomar (US) in 2017. A chapter
explains the meanings of terms such as Big Data, Machine Learning, Turing Test,
Python, and many others, limiting the description to the necessary aspects to
familiarize oneself with the context. A historical chronology helps to
understand how one must trace back to the beginnings of civilization to reach
the most recent achievements. The text includes 18 important articles recently
published by the author that, on their own, provide a detailed framework of
various known and lesser-known aspects of AI. It all ends with 17 biographies
of the great scientists who have contributed to this subject, starting from
Leibniz and up to today with Tim Barners-Lee.”

THE NEW COMPUTING WORLD. Quantum mechanics, a difficult and counter-intuitive theory of the last century, enters the world of computing with quantum computers and opens an era in which classical paradigms are overturned. The Turing test, the Von Neumann model, and all the software structure that has reigned for 70 years are swept away to make way for revolutionary hardware and software. An era begins in which Moore's law, now at the end of the line, is replaced by a new formula that not only compensates for the slowdown of the previous path, but also accelerates it significantly. This book is a complete and up-to-date description of the state of the art of technology with in-depth coverage of quantum mechanics, the various forms of quantum computers (adiabatic, gate-based, etc.), the involved theories, and much more.

Ecco, per i nostri numerosi amici e lettori, dove lavoriamo, studiamo ... e soggiorniamo leggendo libri.
Ieri, 23 aprile 2023, ha avuto luogo una pregevole e tradizionale festa detta del “Bruscandolo” (il termine si riferisce al “germoglio” del luppolo).
La festa ha entusiasmato gli abitanti e invaso completamente
questo paese, fondato più di mille anni fa con il nome “Pidigalia”.
Oggi denominato San Marco, il paese si trova nel comune di
Resana (provincia di Treviso) e dista solo 50 Km da quella Venezia, nota in
tutto il mondo, la cui piazza principale si chiama pure San Marco.
Tutti i suoi
1200 abitanti sono stati rappresentati da 11 gruppi di cittadini gareggianti al
“Zogo del Leon”, che in italiano significa “Gioco del Leone”, una sorta del “gioco
dell’oca”.
Gli 11 gruppi portavano gli stendardi delle 11
strade del paese ed al gioco ha vinto la via del Monastero.
Seguono le
immagini della festa ed i link ai video raccolti.
Per questa
occasione gli interessati a questo paese possono scaricare gratuitamente da
Amazon e dal 25 al 30 aprile tre volumi ai seguenti link:

UN VIAGGIO OGGI IRRIPETIBILE. I tempi sono molto cambiati da quando nell’anno 1991 feci un viaggio di 36 giorni intorno al mondo, con l’intera famiglia e 7 valigie. Per me era un viaggio di lavoro in quanto in quel periodo ero responsabile della distribuzione mondiale per una multinazionale americana. Approfittai del fatto che il mio viaggio era pagato dalla società, ma non avevo fatto i conti bene di quanto mi sarebbero costati una moglie e 4 figli e quanto avrei dovuto lavorare per pagare i loro biglietti, gli hotel e … le loro spese!
Nella prima immagine riporto il programma completo che,
partendo da Milano, prevedeva le seguenti tappe: Caracas (Venezuela), San Juan
(Portorico), Dallas (Usa), San Francisco, Honolulu, Tokyo, Taipei (Taiwan), Hong
Kong, Amsterdam, Milano.
Fu un viaggio meraviglioso da una parte, dall’altra
veramente pieno di imprevisti. Atterraggio terrificante d’emergenza a Dallas con
aereo infuocato e pompieri al seguito, poi rimborsatomi interamente ($ 2802)
dall’American Airlines. Rottura alluce
Enrico dando calcio durante crociera alle Hawaii con ingessatura. Undicesimo compleanno di Enrico attraversando
la linea di cambiamento data tra Honolulu e Tokyo con festeggiamento su aereo.
Suo rapimento a Santa Clara da parte fratelli con richiesta di riscatto (100 $),
subito ritornatoci con la nostra richiesta di “tenetevelo!”. Pericoloso
atterraggio con elicottero su vulcano Kilauea. Chiusura di Elena dentro suo letto
a ribaltamento automatico su nave con difficile intervento marinai per tirarla
fuori durante una notte. Ed altre delizie che sicuramente descriverò in un mio
prossimo libro.
For tomorrow, Thursday April 6th, the eBook "Seven Short Lessons" from the series "Tech Unlocked for Everybody" will be available for free. Inside the eBook, clickable links will provide access to all my books in English. :
