When you turn on the tap or twist the cap, you might not give a second thought to where your drinking water comes from. But how it gets from the ground to your glass is far more complex than you might think. Is it safe to drink tap water? Should you feel guilty buying bottled water? Is your water vulnerable to terrorist attacks? With springs running dry and reservoirs emptying, where is your water going to come from in the future? In Drinking Water, Duke professor James Salzman shows how drinking water highlights the most pressing issues of our time.

I tragici e recenti avvenimenti della guerra che sta scuotendo l’Europa e il mondo intero hanno messo in crisi tutto ciò che fino a poco tempo fa consideravamo una certezza: non solo la pace, ma anche la disponibilità delle materie prime, e quindi il loro reperimento e stoccaggio, lasciandoci con quesiti importanti sul futuro energetico. In questa nuova pubblicazione, Andrea Moccia ci darà gli strumenti per conoscere la materia, capire quali sono le armi a nostra disposizione per combattere la profonda crisi energetica in corso e rispondere alle domande che quest’ultima ha sollevato nell’opinione pubblica.

In Nature’s Fortune, Mark Tercek, CEO of The Nature Conservancy and former investment banker, and science writer Jonathan Adams argue that nature is not only the foundation of human well-being, but also the smartest commercial investment any business or government can make. The forests, floodplains, and oyster reefs often seen simply as raw materials or as obstacles to be cleared in the name of progress are, in fact as important to our future prosperity as technology or law or business innovation.
