        Assemblages of cancer

        Experiences and contexts of breast cancer in the UK, France and Italy

        by Cinzia Greco

        Assemblages of cancer illustrates the tensions in the experiences and context of breast cancer in Western Europe. Breast cancer is presented as a success story in oncology, especially in countries with advanced, universal healthcare systems. At the same time, individual experiences are shaped by uncertainty, local variability of healthcare provisions, and the need for patients to assemble information about the treatments, knowledge on healthcare systems navigation, and different processes of meaning-making to manage the uncertainty and variability characterising individual outcomes. The book explores both how individual bodies and experiences are transformed by different local medical practices, institutions and discourses of breast cancer and how patients need to find their own way in these contexts. Assemblages of cancer is based on ten years of ethnographic work with patients and medical professionals in the UK, France and Italy.

        The Countess and the Organ Player

        by Cesia Hirshbein

        In the historical context of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the height of the Romantic era, the 19th century, Anton Bruckner, the famous Austrian composer and organist, falls in love with the imposing Countess Henriette. She had been appointed lady-in-waiting to Princess Charlotte of Belgium, the wife of Prince Maximilian of Habsburg, to attend to her during the couple's Mexican endeavor. They had been named Emperor and Empress of Mexico and would embark on a journey to America for this mission. Bruckner meets the countess by chance at the funeral of Maximilian, who had been assassinated in Querétaro in 1867, during the so-called Second Mexican Empire. On the recommendation of a musician friend of Henriette's, who sees him at the funeral, she takes piano lessons with Bruckner. When she tells him that she had accompanied the empress to Mexico, the composer becomes enchanted. He admired Maximilian and was passionate about Mexico; he had even wanted to accompany the emperor. Ultimately, the only trips he made were to give organ concerts in London and another at Notre Dame in Paris. Between classes, the countess tells him of the Atlantic crossing, the arrival in Veracruz, and the entrance to Mexico City. Gradually, they grow closer. In one of his concerts, Bruckner meets Franz Liszt, who was a patron of Maximilian's empire in Mexico. Meanwhile, the countess and the organist plan a Requiem, which will be the turning point between them.

        The European or Mediterranean cultivated olive (Olea europaea L., subsp. europaea, var. europaea) is one of the most ancient cultivated fruit tree crops. Today, hundreds of olive varieties are grown to produce high-quality fruit for oil and for table olives consumption. The olive industry has undergone profound innovations in the past 30 years, due to scientific and technical advances, particularly in genomics, breeding, orchard management, mechanization and agro-ecology, although not all these developments are yet available to smaller producers. Olive cultivation has also spread to many countries outside the Mediterranean Basin, where it ihas been traditionally present for over 6,000 years. These new olive-growing countries are experiencing further expansion of the industry, due to increased awareness of the nutritional and health properties of extra virgin olive oil. This book is a much-needed update on olive biology and cultivation, with contributions from leading international experts, and includes: Biology Genetics and breeding Olive propagation and nursery Planting new olive orchards Horticultural management of olive orchards Plant protection Olive by-products (wood, leaves) Multifunctionality of olive groves and ecosystem services The Olive: Botany and Production is invaluable for researchers and students in horticulture and agriculture, as well as producers involved in olive orchard management.

        Il Giglio Bianco di Stalingrado

        The Great Air Battles

        by Andrea Laprovitera, Luca Vergerio

        The White Lily of Stalingrad is the first volume of a new series dedicated to the Great Air Battles of the past, but above all to the pilots who took part in them, their courage and self-sacrifice. The human tribute of the pilots of the various nations at war was very high. Also for this reason many of them were young, often barely twenty years old and with very little flying experience that they necessarily acquired while fighting. The White Lily of Stalingrad is centred on the exploits of a girl, barely twenty years old, ace of the Soviet Aviation and pilot of a fighter plane, the Yakovlev Yak-1. A volume not to be missed, of pure Adventure, in the style of Edizioni Segni d'Autore!

        Uno straordinario viaggio fotografico An epic photographic journey

        by Davide Cenadelli

        “Whoever you are, no matter how lonely, the world offers itself to your imagination, calling you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting - announcing again and again your place in the family of things.”(Mary Oliver) Mont Blanc, the highest peak in Western Europe; the Matterhorn, one of the most famous mountains in the world; the Gran Paradiso National Park, the oldest in Italy; innumerable peaks and glaciers; alpine pastures that are filled with a thousand colors in the flowering season; immense forests that take on the colors of red and gold in autumn; and then Roman traces, castles, fashionable places and others out of time…All of this is found in Valle d'Aosta, a region unrivaled for the grandeur of mountain scenery. In this book, the author will walk you through 50 places in the region, where to leave the everyday routine, to find the way towards harmony and beauty and that special feeling of fullness that certain places know how to arouse in the human soul.

      • My White

        by Ksenia Burzhskaya

        A sensational and highly anticipated novel by Ksenia Burzhskaya, a Russian renowned journalist, writer, and co-host of the YouTube channel White Noise, together with the famous Russian writer, Tatyana Tolstaya. Ksenia is also a speechwriter for Alisa (a voice assistant and Yandex’s alternative to Alexa) and the winner of the literary competition My First Pain (2008) organized by another great Russian author, Ludmila Ulitskaya. My White is set in the modern day. Throughout the book, the main character, sixteen-year-old girl Jane (Zhenya) is preparing for a New Year school performance. Zhenya was brought up by her two moms, artist Alexandra and doctor Vera. But despite that, she faces the same problems every other teenager does: she studies, meets up with friends, falls for a boy, and tries her best to get over an unrequited love and her parents’ divorce. Zhenya’s ultimate goal and destination in the novel, the concert, has two purposes: to gather her mothers and hopefully make them change their mind about the divorce, and to give her a chance to confess to Lyonya, head of their music club and the guy she is secretly in love with.   The novel has two central story lines. The first is a constant rehearsal, anticipation and premonition, that may be more important than the event itself. The second is memories, regrets, attempts to find your own way and answer the eternal questions: what is love? can it last forever? why do we love at all?

        Catastrophe

        Stories and Lessons from the Halifax Explosion

        by T. Joseph Scanlon, Roger Sarty

        Catastrophe weaves together compelling stories and potent lessons learned from the calamitous Halifax explosion—the worst non-natural disaster in North America before 9/11. On December 6, 1917, the Canadian city of Halifax, Nova Scotia, was shattered when volatile cargo on the SS Mont-Blanc freighter exploded in the bustling wartime harbour. More than nineteen hundred people were killed and nine thousand injured. Across more than two square kilometres some 1200 homes, factories, schools and churches were obliterated or heavily damaged. Written from a scholarly perspective but in a journalistic style accessible to the general reader, this book explores how the explosion influenced later emergency planning and disaster theory. Rich in firsthand accounts gathered in decades of research in Canada, the US, the UK, France and Norway, the book examines the disaster from all angles. It delivers an inspiring message: the women and men at “ground zero” responded speedily, courageously, and effectively, fighting fires, rescuing the injured, and sheltering the homeless. The book also shows that the generous assistance that later came from central Canada and the US also brought some unhelpful intrusions by outside authorities. Unable to imagine the horror of the initial crisis, they ignored or even vilified a number of the first responders. This book will be of particular interest to disaster researchers and emergency planners along with journalists, and scholars of history, Maritime studies, and Canadian studies.
