Questo libro sulla storia dei videogiochi non ha alcuna pretesa di raccontare ogni avvenimento del medium che in pochissimo tempo diventato il più ricco, diffuso, criticato, influenzato e culturalmente rilevante. E tuttavia passa in rassegna le tappe fondamentali del percorso che ha portato quel sistema di intrattenimento a diventare una parte fondamentale della nostra attuale cultura. Si parla di tecnologia e famiglia, di storia universale e personale, di scoperte continue, curiosità, notti insonni.

Story0
L’hacking non nasce con i computer. Già agli inizi del Novecento dei giovani appassionati modificavano i propri apparecchi radio per ottenere prestazioni non previste dal loro produttore. Alcuni decenni dopo, negli anni ’60, si diffondono i "phone phreaks", degli "hacker dei telefoni" che prefigurano molte caratteristiche della odierna cultura digitale. Con la diffusione dei PC i gruppi hacker diventano un fenomeno mediatico e di massa. Alla metà degli anni ’80, quello che fino ad allora era stato considerato come un "ragazzo prodigio" si trasforma in una potenziale minaccia come autore di clamorose truffe o altre pratiche criminali.

During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Americans depended upon ice to stay cool and to keep their perishable foods fresh. Jonathan Rees tells the fascinating story of how people got ice before mechanical refrigeration came to the household. Drawing on newspapers, trade journals, and household advice books, Before the Refrigerator explains how Americans built a complex system to harvest, store, and transport ice to everyone who wanted it, even the very poor.

The air conditioner is often hailed as one of the modern world's greatest inventions—yet nearly as often blamed for global disaster. It has changed everything from architecture to people's food habits; saved countless lives, and caused countless deaths. First appearing in 1902, when Willis Carrier, an engineer barely out of college, developed the "Apparatus for Treating Air," everyone assumed it would instantly change the world. But the story of air conditioning and its rise to ubiquity is far from simple.

Tehnologia evoluează într‑un ritm exponențial, spune Azeem Azhar, iar noi nu ne vom putea adapta decât dacă ne însușim un ritm progresiv mai lent. Rezultatul? Un „decalaj exponențial“ între puterea noii tehnologii și capacitatea noastră de a ține pasul cu ea. Azhar explică prin decalajul exponențial unele dintre cele mai presante dificultăți ale societății în care trăim: de la inerția afacerilor în a implementa digitalizarea până la reacția sclerozată a democrațiilor liberale în fața avântului problemelor sociale. Cum trebuie întâmpinată această tendință care ne erodează economia, politica și viața?

Since the commercial introduction of the automobile, US automakers have always sought women as customers and advertised accordingly. How, then, did car culture become so masculine? In Pink Cars and Pocketbooks, Jessica Brockmole shares the untold history of women's relationship with automobiles: a journey marked by struggle, empowerment, and the relentless pursuit of independence. This groundbreaking work explores the evolution of women's automotive participation and the cultural shifts that have redefined their roles as drivers, mechanics, and consumers.

As NASA prepared for the launch of Apollo 11 in July 1969, many African American leaders protested the billions of dollars used to fund "space joyrides" rather than help tackle poverty, inequality, and discrimination at home. This volume examines such tensions as well as the ways in which NASA's goal of space exploration aligned with the cause of racial equality. It provides new insights into the complex relationship between the space program and the civil rights movement in the Jim Crow South and abroad.
