LEGATURA EDITORIALE. Zustand: NUOVO. Un'opera che è anche una riflessione su ambizione e umiltà: perché spesso quando ci illudiamo di stringere le redini della Storia, nel nostro pugno c'è in realtà solo una goccia di pioggia. Pioggia, nebbia, vento, gelo, siccità. C'è un protagonista silenzioso che attraversa i millenni e influenza le sorti dell'umanità più di re, generali e rivoluzioni: è il clima, con tutti i suoi emissari atmosferici. Storia del mondo in 10 tempeste ripercorre i grandi avvenimenti del passato dall'inedita prospettiva della meteorologia, per mostrare quanto di frequente l'incontro tra uomini e destino sia stato deciso da fenomeni naturali inattesi. Napoleone aveva calcolato tutto: il perimetro della pianura di Waterloo, la disposizione dell'artiglieria, l'assalto della Guardia. L'unica incognita cui non aveva pensato fu il temporale che si scatenò nella notte tra il 17 e il 18 giugno 1815, rendendo il terreno impraticabile e costringendo l'imperatore a ritardi rivelatisi poi determinanti. A partire da episodi come questo, Vincenzo Levizzani ci guida attraverso i secoli per raccontarci le tante volte che i piani umani si sono scontrati con la furia degli elementi: dalla nebbia sfruttata da Annibale per la vittoria nella battaglia del Trasimeno ai cambiamenti climatici che spinsero i cosiddetti «barbari» a emigrare, contribuendo alla caduta dell'Impero romano; dalle nevicate che influenzarono l'esito della guerra delle Due Rose al tornado che giocò un ruolo chiave nella guerra d'Indipendenza americana; dall'anticiclone responsabile della carestia che scatenò la Rivoluzione francese alle osservazioni delle nubi che condannarono Hiroshima e Nagasaki a diventare i bersagli della bomba atomica. In queste pagine, Vincenzo Levizzani mostra come il tempo atmosferico abbia da sempre agito da regista invisibile dei grandi eventi e come continui a farlo ancora oggi, impattando sulle nostre abitudini, sull'economia e sulla cultura.

LEGATURA EDITORIALE. Zustand: NUOVO. La pioggia è il più frequente, ma anche il più misterioso ed elusivo tra gli eventi meteorologici. Senz'altro uno di quelli che, sin da quando eravamo bambini, ci ha posto davanti a interrogativi incessanti: perché piove in un certo momento? Come mai le precipitazioni sono sempre diverse? A volte veniamo investiti da acquazzoni di breve durata, altre volte la pioggia è leggera e prosegue anche per ore e ore: come facciamo allora a dire che è piovuto poco o tanto? Come quantifichiamo la pioggia? In questa sua nuova avventura scientifica, Vincenzo Levizzani ci svela i segreti delle precipitazioni atmosferiche e ci racconta in che modo l'umanità, nel corso dei millenni, le ha vissute e affrontate. Pagg. 296, brossura.…
