Homo Sapiens

UNESCO – World heritage Atlas

Physical isolation, expansions and migrations have been the key features of human evolution. Two millions of years ago, Homo species started to spread out of Africa at various times, putting together the mosaic of our diversity. The young Homo sapiens species, the last one to be born in Africa, who spread all over the world, is one of the main characters of this choral score. This fascinating journey of humanity is told in this first geographic atlas of the human peopling of Earth.

“Heritage is our link to the past, what we live today and what we will hand on future generations”. These words, that UNESCO tell to the world, sum up the meaning of what was decided 40 years ago, when the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization agreed on the protection of those places in the world that could represent, for cultural or natural criteria, a heritage to humanity. On this important occasion, UNESCO commissioned De Agostini to make this outstanding atlas to map and illustrate the sites.

Frecce Tricolori Italian Air Force acrobatic team The Frecce Tricolori, the Italian elite formation flying team, are one of the most beloved and representative emblems of our country. Their spectacular maneuvers amaze us every time we admire them flying. But how did they get such a precision? Who are the men, which are the means? Who are those who put pilots in a position to fly safely? What is the history of the Air Force acrobatic team? All these questions and many others are met in these volumes, made in collaboration with Frecce Tricolori. Besides the illustrated book, updated on the occasion of the 150th Anniversary of the Unification of Italy, there is also a DVD edition, with over 170 minutes of unreleased footage, some of which shot with the spectacular GO-PRO movie camera.

Orologi da polso Wristwatches The updated and expanded edition of a book dedicated to collectors’ wristwatches, written and developed by two experts in the field. From Patek Philippe to Rolex, from Omega to Vacheron Costantin, all the wristwatches that made an age and the most advanced technology: the best pieces of the most popular brands, the models that left a trace in the twentieth century history, the most wanted and appreciated pieces by collectors and evaluators.

A great illustrated volume made for all those who are keen on worldwide clock-making, with lots of curiosities, in-depth analysis, and a glossary of watch terminology.

Aeronautica Militare Air Force

Trattato di scenotecnica An essay on stagecraft

Made in collaboration with the National Italian Air Force, two titles that offer a privileged insight of the mission, the organization, the history, the military operations, the international efforts, the staff, the facilities and the technology which made the Air Force a leading strength in the international scene.

The book also showcases tables of all the divisions and the airplanes: from the Eurofighter 2000 Typhoon to the F-16A, from the Tornado to the C-2J7 and the C-130J, until the very last flying tests on the T-346A. The deluxe edition also features two 1:100 scale models of the C-130J and the Eurofighter 2000 Typhoon.

Originating in the 5th century BC, the art of stagecraft has evolved and improved over the centuries to reach levels that are difficult to overtake. After some historical notes on set design, the book describes in detail the various features that have a part in stagecraft: costumes, layout, architectural design, curtain, stage, etc. A variety of explanatory drawings help understanding all the individual elements. An essential text that has no equal on the Italian scene.

In mongolfiera contro un albero Riding on a hot-air balloon against a tree

Il mio cuore ti appartiene My heart belongs to you

Il volo di Caterina The flight of Caterina

The analysis of Grassia, journalist for La Stampa, is more or less this: 4000 articles; travels to fifty countries; hundreds of interviews to famous people like Henry Kissinger, Kofi Annan, Leah Rabin; two space launches (watched) and a ride on a hot-air ballon (done). The reporter’s memories interchange with the apparent quiet of the newsroom and the humour daily news offer, so that we can get to know the feelings and the emotions of those people who make and read newspapers.

There’s a new comer in Alex’s class, the beautiful and serious Ylenia. The boy is struck by her and starts doing everything he can to please her: he shows reliable, he stops being late with friends, he studies and does well. But Ylenia keeps a terrible secret and, even though she feels the same way, she decides to keep a distance from him. After long ups and downs of emotions, love explodes and leads us to the final turning point, where life and death engage in fierce battle. A romantic and touching story, a slice of life of small-towns teenagers, with their wishes, naivety and dreams.

The neurosurgery ward of the Bellaria hospital in Bologna.

Caterina is two years and eight months old. She has a brain tumor. How can you bear such pain? You need to hold back your fear and fight. Caterina has had surgery. She can barely move her left arm and leg, she cannot sit down and she has esotropia in her left eye. Yet, despite all, she is alive.

Chemotherapy now begins. Her father Lorenzo stays with her throughout the treatment. In a sequence of “sliding doors” interweaving with the illness, Lorenzo tells us about Caterina’s story and imagines her future. To survive, to pay homage to life, to never forget and to look forward.

A cena coi cannibali A dinner with cannibals It was 1981 when Viviano Domenici was asked by “Corriere della sera” board of direction to follow an archaeological exploration in central America. From that time onwards, he traveled around the world more than once in search for isolated tribes, buried dinosaurs, proofs of civilizations. In this book he collected some of his news reports to allow readers to meet far away worlds, to see the wonder of diversity and to learn to respect all those ethnic groups who try to survive in the dramatic conflict against white people.

Il coniglio bianco The white rabbit Jan is thirty-seven years old. He has a wife, two children he can be proud of and a CV which should easily grant him the grail of modern capitalism. Eventually, he accepts the offer of a mobile communication company based in Munich. His very first mission involves the dismantling of the company’s facilities in Bangalore, but soon Jan understands that something’s wrong and that they are using him as a pawn in a lethal game that goes far beyond the borders of old Europe. A high adrenalin fast-paced thriller that will captivate you until the very last scene.

romance È scritto nel corpo It’s written in the body Sveva is an attractive and successful woman, married to Arturo, a quiet and devoted man. Their marriage protects her from herself and from her past, but their lives are separated by the deeper crack of her continuous betrayals. But when Camilla, a journalist and a sexually unscrupulous writer arrives, an ungovernable passion sparks off between them and slowly starts to change their destiny.

In the meantime, during an auction, Camilla’s husband, Corrado, wins an important work of art that conceals the story of a forbidden true love ended in tragedy. Too focused on this research, he does not realize what’s happening to his wife. Also, a strange presence comes between Sveva and Camilla and spies on them: maybe a disappointed lover, maybe a stalker, maybe a ghost of the past. A novel which celebrates the potentialities of love and its capacity of subverting every convention. A magical, free and creative vision of Eros and of sexuality, beyond deceptions and prejudices.
