Over two millennia ago, a Greek philosopher had a number of wondrous insights that paved the way to cosmology, physics, geography, meteorology, and biology, setting in motion a new way of seeing the world. In this elegant work, acclaimed physicist Carlo Rovelli brings to light the importance of Anaximander's overlooked legacy to modern science. He examines Anaximander as a scientist interested in shedding light on the deep nature of scientific thinking, which Rovelli locates in his rebellious ability to reimagine the world again and again.

Una guida per tutti attraverso le rivoluzioni scientifiche che hanno sconvolto la fisica nel ventesimo secolo. Con folgorante chiarezza vengono qui spiegate la teoria della relatività generale di Einstein, la meccanica quantistica, i buchi neri, la complessa architettura dell'universo, le particelle elementari, la gravità e la natura del tempo e della mente: una limpida e divertente introduzione a quelle scoperte della fisica contemporanea che smentiscono ogni nostra percezione e intuizione immediata.

Mistero per profani e scienziati, la natura del tempo è l'oggetto di questo libro sorprendente. Un racconto delle diverse strade intraprese nel corso dei secoli per comprendere ciò di cui tutti facciamo esperienza in ogni istante. Un viaggio illuminante a partire da Anassimandro, passando per Newton e Einstein, fino ad arrivare alle più recenti teorie sulla gravità a loop e ad affacciarsi sul "grande oceano notturno e stellato di quello che ancora non sappiamo".

Vorwärts in die Vergangenheit. Weiße Löcher sind das Gegenteil von Schwarzen Löchern – sie sind vermutlich ihre Abkömmlinge. Die einen ziehen alle Materie unwiderstehlich in sich hinein, die anderen geben ihre Information wieder frei. Sie sind ein weiteres großes Rätsel der Kosmologie, und noch gibt es keinen Beweis ihrer Existenz. Einsteins Gleichungen lassen sie aber vermuten, und mit Carlo Rovellis Quantentheorie sind Weiße Löcher theoretisch darstellbar.

In this Italian children's classic, a lonely toymaker named Gepetto creates a small wooden puppet who magically comes to life. In a series of mischievous adventures, Pinocchio thinks he can get by on a variety of clever lies and tricks. There is one problem: his nose grows every time he tells a lie. One way or another, the truth always comes out, and Pinocchio finds out that lying does not pay.

März 2028: Russische Truppen erobern die estnische Kleinstadt Narwa und die Insel Hiiumaa in der Ostsee. Der Angriff auf das Baltikum hat begonnen. Jetzt rächt sich, dass Europa nach dem Ende des Krieges in der Ukraine nicht aufgerüstet hat und wichtige Fähigkeiten fehlen.

In the early twenty-first century, environmental risks such as climate change, biodiversity loss, resource scarcity, large-scale migrations, and conflicts over critical resources have become our lived reality in a world where nearly 8 billion people struggle to thrive. These crises have proven impossible to address without fundamental transformations of our economic institutions—exactly as predicted in this groundbreaking work. First published in 1994, Taming the Dragon offers a careful investigation of the processes that have led to global environmental change.

Il taglio del bosco (1959) è una raccolta di nove «racconti lunghi e romanzi brevi» costruita attorno a quello eponimo, che funge da spartiacque tra la fase "subliminare" dei primi tre testi e quella più matura, realista degli ultimi cinque, nella quale si avverte il respiro del grande romanziere. La raccolta, nel suo insieme, appare quindi come una sorta di precipitato del passato e di anticipazione del futuro, un'opera nodale di dolente forza poetica che delinea al contempo uno spaccato della società italiana in un'epoca di forti cambiamenti letterari e civili.

The Samurai Sword Under the Fossilized Tree Beneath a sun-bleached, fossilized tree, a man prepares to die according to an ancient ritual, watched by the one who must carry out the final blow. Between them rests a sword passed down through generations — a blade that carries not only family honor, but the weight of a silenced history. What begins as an intimate act of ceremonial death unfolds into a harrowing reckoning with the past: the internment of Japanese American citizens during World War II, the stripping of identity, the humiliation of confinement, and the cost of enforced silence....

Dans ses "Sept brèves leçons de physique", Carlo Rovelli confiait : qu'une question avait guidé sa vie de chercheur : la nature du temps. Se hissant sur les épaules d'Isaac Newton, d'Albert Einstein, de Stephen Hawking et de bien d'autres, il nous livre enfin ses découvertes dans ce livre majeur. Le temps est au cœur d'un étrange mystère. Tel un flocon de neige qui fond lorsqu'on s'en saisit, il s'est progressivement délité sous les assauts de la science : on sait dorénavant que le temps s'écoule plus lentement en plaine qu'en altitude.
