Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. There is a precise moment when a civilisation stops understanding the war it is fighting. In the summer of 1914, European governments activated mechanisms of alliance and mobilisation that no one knew how to stop anymore, and in thirty-seven days turned the assassination of an archduke into th…e greatest catastrophe the continent had ever seen. No one wanted it that way. No one had the conceptual tools to understand what they were building. We are back in that moment. The war of our time is not declared, not seen and never ends. It has no geographical fronts, no recognisable uniforms. It strikes hospitals and power grids, manipulates elections, paralyses economies, silences dissidents, rewrites reality. It is fought in the submarine cables that carry ninety-five per cent of global communications, in the control systems of nuclear power plants, in the phones we keep in our pockets, in the democratic processes we still insist on calling free. It began decades ago. We are losing it without knowing it. The Invisible War is the story of that war: from Stuxnet, the first cyber weapon in history, which in 2010 destroyed Iranian nuclear centrifuges without firing a single shot, to the planned blackouts that plunged Ukraine into darkness in the middle of winter, the systematic interference in Western democracies, the artificial intelligence that has reduced the cost of lying at industrial scale to zero, and the Chinese robots that in twelve months went from folk dances to martial acrobatics in front of a billion spectators, while the world applauded without understanding what it was really watching. But this book is not only a chronicle of what has already happened. It is an investigation into the categories we have lost: the distinction between peace and war, the border as the limit of sovereignty, truth as the common ground of democratic debate. Three pillars on which we have built Western civilisation over the last four centuries, and which the digital revolution is eroding at a speed our institutions are not yet able to measure. Raffaele Di Marzio has spent more than twenty years inside the systems that manage these risks: banks, critical infrastructures, European regulatory bodies. He writes from that position with the frankness of someone who knows the mechanisms from the inside and has stopped finding what he sees reassuring. He does not offer easy solutions, because easy solutions are the first form of disinformation. He offers something rarer and more necessary: the tools to understand. The facts described in this book existed before they were written. They will continue to exist after you have finished reading it. The difference, now, is you. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
