Illustrated By Scott Baldwin. Viking 1994, cm.14x18, pp.320, legatura editoriale, sopraccoperta figurata. The author profiles Italians who continue to follow traditional methods of raising and refining foods despite the regulations favouring mass production which have lowered culinary standards across Europe. Join the author on his quests, from the edge of the Alps to the far reaches of Sicily, tracking white truffles in Piedmont with a "trifolau" and his dogs, tasting true balsamic vinegar more esteemed than aged wine in Emilia, visiting a family "pastificio" in a vain attempt to witness the ritual of pasta being shaped and cut, and cultivating olives on a Tuscan hillside for his own oil. Topics include such familiar foods as pizza napoletana, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, and espresso, as well as rare culatello, a pork speciality more prized than proscuitto. Suggestions for buying, storing and serving the foods are provided along with recommended restaurants and shops in Italy that offer them at their best.

The Great Adventure of the Global Chip Industry and an Italian-French Company that Makes the World Go Round Foreword by Nicolas Dufourcq and Maurizio Tamagnini. Bocconi University Press. Milano, Egea 2023, cm.15x23, pp.192, brossura copertina figurata a colori. Semiconductors and chips have become increasingly indispensable, present in everything from smartphones and cars to home appliances and medical devices. However, we often fail to recognize the significant technological and creative efforts that go into creating these “life companions.” While it’s commonly assumed that technological innovations are exclusively produced in Asian factories or American laboratories, few realize that there has been a “Silicon Europe” of industrial and technological excellence across France and Italy for decades. At the heart of this region lies STMicroelectronics, a world-leading chip company. Through the history of ST and European microelectronics, journalist and writer Marco Bardazzi takes readers on an incredible journey that documents the ideas, inventions, stories, and people behind the technologies and objects that have revolutionized our lives in recent decades. Bardazzi also sheds light on the cutting-edge technology sector that is pivotal to new generations and future jobs, in which Europe is playing an essential role. Dagli smartphone alle automobili, dai computer alle smart tv, dagli elettrodomestici ai dispositivi medici, viviamo in un mondo in cui i semiconduttori e i chip sono sempre più indispensabili. Tuttavia, pochi sanno che nel nostro continente esiste da decenni una vera e propria "Silicon Europe", un'area di eccellenza industriale e tecnologica distribuita tra Italia e Francia e che ha il suo cuore in un'azienda leader mondiale dei chip: Stmicroelectronics. Marco Bardazzi ci guida in un viaggio sorprendente svelando i retroscena di un settore tecnologico all'avanguardia e centrale per le nuove generazioni e i lavori del futuro, in cui il nostro paese e l'Europa giocano un ruolo da protagonista.
