      • Martini Maria Cristina | MMC Edizioni

        MMC EDIZIONI is a publishing house based in Rome.Born in 2001 as a generalist, along the time it has specialized almost exclusively in non-fiction, dedicated in particular (but not only) to the city of Rome.The main series, called "A walk with history" offers an alternative vision of the city through the historical reconnaissance and analysis of some of its urban furnishings that are not taken into consideration such as small fountains, clocks, inscriptions, sacred shrines, plaques. This series stands out for a particular graphic style and for the abundance of photographs, specially made for these books.Other series on Rome are instead dedicated to in-depth studies on specific historical and customs themes, or on the mysterious aspects of the city that also reveal its dark side.In the MMC catalogue are other non-fiction books on topics such as Music, Interculture, Anthropology and a series of stories for children encouraging solidarity, non-violence and respect for the environment

        Urban Insect Pests

        Sustainable Management Strategies

        by Gregory J Baumann, Partho Dhang, Zia Siddiqi, Ed Vargo, Rajeev Vaidyanathan, Julian Entwestle, John Cooksey, Chow Yang Lee, Michael Rust, Changlu Wang, Frantisek Rettich, David Liszka, Eli Shaava

        A companion to 'Urban Pest Management', this book builds on the issues of insect pests in urban settings to discuss control strategies that look beyond products. From an environmental and health perspective, it is not always practical to spray chemicals indoors or in urban settings, so this work discusses sustainable control and best practice methods for managing insects that are vectors of disease, nuisance pests and the cause of structural damage.

        Los animales de El Bosco (The Animals of Hieronymus Bosch)

        by Manuel Marín

        The first artist to enter the realm of fantasy was Hieronymus Bosch. He revels in the delights of pleasure. He relishes eating giant fruits, running on water and flying on top of a fish. He is joyful without even realizing it. Bosch is also aware that serenity and calmness let things be seen as they are. No one before had ever seen our feelings as we get lost in the madness of invisible realities.

        Biology and Management of the Formosan Subterranean Termite and Related Species
        December 2023

        Biology and Management of the Formosan Subterranean Termite and Related Species

        by Nan-Yao Su, Chow-Yang Lee, Lauren Davies, Thomas Chouvenc, J. Kenneth Grace, Claudia Husseneder, Shuji Itakura, Hou-Feng Li, Nathan Lo, Kok-Boon Neoh, Wakako Ohmura, Faith M. Oi, Rudolf H. Scheffrahn, Qian Sun, Gaku Tokuda, Edward L. Vargo, Chia-Chien Wu, Koichi Yamamoto

        The Formosan subterranean termite, Coptotermes formosanus, is the most destructive and invasive termite species globally. It is also the only termite species listed in the world's 100 worst invasive alien species of the Global Invasive Species Database. Annually, its infestation costs more than $4 billion in control and damage repairs in the USA alone. This book is the first comprehensive resource drawing on all the literature on C. formosanus since Tokuichi Shiraki first described the species in 1909. The book covers the worldwide distribution of this species, its biogeography, and how it has dispersed from its native range in southern China and Taiwan to different parts of the world. It describes its present taxonomic status and discusses the species' biology, ecology, foraging behavior, physiology, chemical ecology and its association with symbionts. From a practical standpoint, the authors address all of the various management options for this species, such as baits, soil termiticides, wood preservatives, inspection and detection technologies, and Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approaches. Lastly, there are chapters dedicated to another important destructive species, Coptotermes gestroi (the Asian subterranean termite), and the recently discovered C. formosanus/C. gestroi hybrids. This important book is an essential and valuable reference for researchers, graduate students, pest management professionals, chemical manufacturer personnel, building and property managers, and others. It provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of the biology and management of the Formosan subterranean termite and the Asian subterranean termite.

        Sechs moderne Theaterstücke

        by Samuel Beckett, Jerome Kilty, Klaus Händl, Christoph Nußbaumeder, Moritz Rinke, Peter Turrini

        Samuel Beckett: Hörspielskizze I, Hörspielskizze II Deutsch von Elmar Tophoven Mit Endspiel (Bd. 2) war Beckett von Anbeginn Autor der Spectaculum-Reihe, in der inzwischen seine sämtlichen Theaterstücke erschienen sind. Seit seinem ersten Hörspiel 1956 spielt diese Gattung in seinem Gesamtwerk eine bedeutende Rolle, nicht zuletzt durch die Motive und Querverweise, die sich wie ein Netz über das »dramatische Werk« legen. Deshalb ist es sinnvoll, wenn aus Anlaß des 100. Geburtstages zwei zentrale Werke für das Radio erscheinen, in denen Samuel Beckett versucht, »aus dem Menschen etwas über den Menschen herauszubringen«. Jerome Kilty: Geliebter Lügner Es sind überaus emotionale Briefe, die sich die berühmte Schauspielerin Stella Campbell und der wohl erfolgreichste Dramatiker des 20. Jahrhunderts Bernard Shaw geschrieben haben. Beide meist verheiratet, aber nie miteinander, konnten über vier Jahrzehnte nicht voneinander lassen und lieferten sich große Liebesbeweise - per Post. Händl Klaus: Dunkel lockende Welt Ein abgetrennter Zeh in einer Ecke, eine Ärztin, die sich mit ihrem Vermieter streitet, ob es einen Gattenmord zu vertuschen oder ein Mutter-Sohn-Drama aufzudecken gilt, eine Wohnung in Leipzig, eine in München, ein Gewirr aus Phantasie und Realität, eine dunkel lockende Welt erzählt uns Händl Klaus. Peter Turrini: Bei Einbruch der Dunkelheit Alois, 15 und heimlicher Dichter, wird in das Herrenhaus des ortsansässigen Komponisten eingeladen. Er muß dort mit Schrecken feststellen, daß es in der Welt der Kunst nicht um Schönheit, sondern um Verrat, nicht um den Ausdruck von Gefühlen, sondern um die bessere Formulierung geht. Christoph Nußbaumeder: Mit dem Gurkenflieger in die Südsee Hier hat ein Autor im erweiterten Europa über Menschen aus Osteuropa geschrieben, die gezwungen sind, im »goldenen Westen« zu Billiglöhnen zu arbeiten. Mitten im Turbokapitalismus schafft Nußbaumeder ein unsentimentales Theaterstück über die »Sklaven des 21. Jahrhundert

        Portraits of anarcho-Judaism

        by Hayyim Rothman

        The forgotten legacy of religious Jewish anarchism, and the adventures and ideas of its key figures, finally comes to light in this book. Set in the decades surrounding both world wars, No masters but God identifies a loosely connected group of rabbis and traditionalist thinkers who explicitly appealed to anarchist ideas in articulating the meaning of the Torah, traditional practice, Jewish life and the mission of modern Jewry. Full of archival discoveries and first translations from Yiddish and Hebrew, it explores anarcho-Judaism in its variety through the works of Yaakov Meir Zalkind, Yitshak Nahman Steinberg, Yehudah Leyb Don-Yahiya, Avraham Yehudah Heyn, Natan Hofshi, Shmuel Alexandrov, Yehudah Ashlag and Aaron Shmuel Tamaret. With this ground-breaking account, Hayyim Rothman traces a complicated story about the modern entanglement of religion and anarchism, pacifism and Zionism, prophetic anti-authoritarianism and mystical antinomianism.

        4 saints in 3 acts

        A snapshot of the American avant-garde in the 1930s

        by Patricia Allmer, John Sears

        Four Saints in Three Acts by Gertrude Stein and Virgil Thomson was a major avant-garde phenomenon of the 1930s, an experimental opera that nonetheless achieved remarkable popular success. Photography was a key element of that success, but its complex roles in the construction, representation and dissemination of the opera have hitherto received little critical attention. The photographic recording of the all-African American cast in particular affords a unique insight into the complexities of Four Saints in relation to the Harlem Renaissance and the New York avant-gardes of the time. This book, published in collaboration with The Photographers' Gallery, London, presents a wide selection of photographs of the cast, performances, and other material - many images reproduced for the first time - alongside essays by an international range of scholars exploring different aspects of the opera, including dance, fashion, music, and avant-garde writing, as well as photography.

        Little People, Big Dreams. Deutsche Ausgabe | Kinderbuch ab 4 Jahre

        by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, Miguel Bustos, Silke Kleemann

        Bruce wurde im Jahr des Drachen in San Francisco geboren und wuchs in Hongkong auf. Als Kind spielte er in über 20 Filmen mit, aber das reichte ihm nicht, er tanzte auch Cha-Cha-Cha und liebte Fechten und Boxen. Zurück in den USA studierte er Philosophie und dachte sich seinen ganz eigenen Kampfstil aus. Außerdem eröffnete er Kampfschulen und produzierte Filme. Er wurde zum Vorbild vieler junger Menschen auf der ganzen Welt. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Schauspielerin, Fußballer oder Bürgerrechtsaktivistin, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen. Für welches Alter sind diese Bücher gedacht? Für Babys das perfekte Geschenk zur Begrüßung in eine Welt voller Träume! Und Eltern werden in schlaflosen Nächten von diesen Büchern dazu ermutigt, das Vorlesen zu einem selbstverständlichen Teil des Lebens zu machen. Kleinkinder werden von den Illustrationen verzaubert sein – sie werden zahlreiche Dinge entdecken. Auch sind die Bücher großartige „Vokabeltrainer“! 3- bis 5-Jährige werden alles, Illustrationen und Texte, geradezu in sich aufsaugen! 6-, 8- und 10-Jährige haben ein ausgeprägteres Verständnis für die Illustrationen und die Bedeutung der Geschichte – es geht nicht nur darum, sich selbst zu akzeptieren und die eigenen Zukunftsträume zu verwirklichen, sondern auch darum, andere so zu akzeptieren, wie sie sind. Später: Die Bücher sind gute Geschenke zu jedem Anlass, denn die Träume der Kindheit können das ganze Leben lang Wirklichkeit werden.
