Breve storia triste (o BST, sempre per obbedire all'esigenza di sintesi) non è più solo il tormentone che impazza sul web ma, come scrive Ivan Cotroneo nella Prefazione, "una specie di esercizio filosofico che in maniera brutale e diretta toglie fronzoli e orpelli e ti mette di fronte l'essenza possibile della storia, a volerla guardare con il filtro dell'ironia". Una chiave narrativa che mescola brevitas e levitas per raccontare non solo le proprie piccole-grandi sfighe del quotidiano, ma che ora si applica a tutto lo scibile umano.

I lupi stanno tornando. Negli ultimi anni la loro popolazione in tutta Europa è aumentata in modo esponenziale. In Italia è più che decuplicata superando i duemila esemplari. Sempre più spesso vengono avvistati intorno ai centri abitati, nei pascoli, al limitare del bosco. Insieme alle tracce riemergono paure antiche, mai placate del tutto. Nemico da perseguitare, incarnazione del male, pericolo per raccolti e greggi: man mano che avanzava l'urbanizzazione e le foreste lasciavano spazio ai campi, i lupi sono stati cacciati, dagli eserciti o dagli stessi contadini.

Nel "Manuale dell'uomo sociale" troverete le instantanee di inizio secolo. Un'epoca sospesa e vagamente ottimista, appena prima alla crisi finanziaria del 2008 e alla lunga crisi economica che avrebbe segnato gli anni Dieci. Riconoscerete l'Italia ormai abituata a internet, ma sempre ossessionata dai cellulari e dai primi smartphone. Sentirete l'aria economica che cambia: stretti tra stipendi balcanici e prezzi scandinavi, molti connazionali stentavano (per fortuna c'erano le case dei genitori, gli aperitivi abbondanti, gli outlet e i voli low-cost).

Arm yourself with garlic, stake and crucifix, for the vampires are back in force - at the top of the best seller lists, on your TV, on the web and lurking in darkened cinemas. But where did they come from? Why have they come back now? And how can you tell if you are one? Beginning with the first sightings of bats and blood-sucking in the Romantic period, Bite follows the undead's progress through the ages, right up to the present.

In 1979, the self-titled debut album by the B-52s burst onto the Billboard charts, capturing the imagination of fans and music critics worldwide. The fact that the group had formed in the sleepy southern college town of Athens, Georgia, only increased the fascination. Soon, more Athens bands followed the B-52s into the vanguard of the new American music that would come to be known as "alternative", including R.E.M., who catapulted over the course of the 1980s to the top of the musical mainstream.

Experience the Green Rush through the eyes of Jackson D. Tilley - the sober 20-something who climbed the ladder at a small vape company while it grew into the nation’s leading cannabis distributor.

In Bright Boulevards, Bold Dreams, Donald Bogle tells - for the first time - the story of a place both mythic and real: Black Hollywood. Spanning 60 years, this deliciously entertaining history uncovers the audacious manner in which many Blacks made a place for themselves in an industry that originally had no place for them. Through interviews and the personal recollections of Hollywood luminaries, Bogle pieces together a remarkable history that remains largely obscure to this day.

When does a scientific discovery become accepted fact? Why have scientific facts become easy to deny? And what can we do about it? In The Workshop and the World, philosopher and science historian Robert P. Crease answers these questions by describing the origins of our scientific infrastructure - the “workshop” - and the role of 10 of the world’s greatest thinkers in shaping it. As today’s politicians and government officials increasingly accuse scientists of dishonesty, conspiracy, and even hoaxes, engaged citizens wonder how we got to this level of distrust....

Briallen Hopper's Hard to Love honours the categories of loves and relationships beyond marriage, the ones that are often treated as invisible or seen as secondary - friendships, kinship with adult siblings, care teams that form in times of illness, or various alternative family formations. She also values difficult and amorphous loves like loving a challenging job or inanimate objects that can't love you back.

Are Donald Trump's irrationality, cruelty and bombast symptoms of his personality? Is the chaos surrounding him a sign of his incompetence? Are his populism, illiberalism and nationalism just cynical appeals to existing feelings of abandonment, resentment and rage? Lawrence Grossberg shows that the truth is bigger and more frightening. Locating Trumpism in the long struggle among traditional conservatism, the new right and the reactionary right, he suggests that the chaos is far more significant and strategic...and dangerous. .

If work is hell, then what is working from home? What happens when we take our lives online? How are we being changed by immersion in the Internet? How do we know the difference between work and life when one seems to blend into the other? Part memoir, part theory, A Life Lived Remotely tells the story of a transition to the digital age. It follows the author's journey through remote work, framing it within the exponential growth of the Internet and the rapid spread of neoliberalism.

"Quem nunca pecou que atire a primeira pedra", disse Jesus na Bíblia. Dependendo da intenção de quem a jogasse, este também seria considerado um pecador. Se lançasse a pedra com raiva, certamente teria agido com Ira. Se sentisse prazer com o ato, cairia na Luxúria. Se a pedrada fosse por causa de uma dívida, seria um gesto de Cobiça. Se fosse para ficar com os bens da vítima, seria Inveja. Se fosse para aparecer perante os outros, olha aí a Vaidade. Se precisasse beber para tomar coragem, cometeria a Gula.
