Colpo a tradimento : romanzo / Harlan Coben ; traduzione di Riccardo Bettini

Tre60, 2025

Abstract: New York, oggi. Valerie Simpson, una giovane stella del tennis, sogna il grande ritorno sui campi da gioco. Sta valutando l'idea di scegliere Myron Bolitar come agente sportivo, quando viene assassinata tra la folla durante gli US Open. Perché ha cercato di contattarlo poco prima di morire? Dopo una carriera eccezionale ma breve, Valerie era crollata psicologicamente e a soli sedici anni era stata ricoverata in un ospedale psichiatrico. C'è forse un legame tra il doloroso passato della ragazza e il suo assassinio? La polizia sospetta del delitto Duane Richwood, un nuovo talento del tennis, e Roger Quincy, un ammiratore che la perseguitava, ma Myron non crede che questa sia la pista giusta. Indagando per conto suo, scopre che sei anni prima il fidanzato di Valerie, figlio di un noto senatore, era stato ucciso mentre si trovava con lei a una festa da un delinquentello mai più rintracciato. Il senatore potrebbe conoscere dettagli importanti per le indagini, ma sembra trincerarsi dietro un muro di silenzio, così come la madre di Valerie. Myron ha l'impressione che le persone coinvolte vogliano che smetta di scavare. La verità, spesso, è troppo pericolosa, se non addirittura mortale. E Myron potrebbe essere la prossima vittima...

How to avoid a climate disaster

Gates, Bill <1955->

How to avoid a climate disaster : the solutons we have and the Breakthroughs we need / Bill Gates

New York : Vintage Books, 2022

Abstract: Bill Gates has spent a decade investigating the causes and effects of climate change. With the help of experts in the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, political science, and finance, he has focused on what must be done in order to stop the planet's slide toward certain environmental disaster. In this book, he not only explains why we need to work toward net-zero emissions of greenhouse gases, but also details what we need to do to achieve this profoundly important goal. He gives us a clear-eyed description of the challenges we face. Drawing on his understanding of innovation and what it takes to get new ideas into the market, he describes the areas in which technology is already helping to reduce emissions, where and how the current technology can be made to function more effectively, where breakthrough technologies are needed, and who is working on these essential innovations. Finally, he lays out a concrete, practical plan for achieving the goal of zero emissions-suggesting not only policies that governments should adopt, but what we as individuals can do to keep our government, our employers, and ourselves accountable in this crucial enterprise. As Bill Gates makes clear, achieving zero emissions will not be simple or easy to do, but if we follow the plan he sets out here, it is a goal firmly within our reach.

Novesky, Amy

Cloth lullaby : the woven life of Louise Bourgeois / words by Amy Novesky ; pictures by Isabelle Arsenault

Abrams, 2016

Abstract: Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) was a world-renowned modern artist noted for her sculptures made of wood, steel, stone, and cast rubber. Her most famous spider sculpture, Maman, stands more than 30 feet high. Just as spiders spin and repair their webs, Louise's own mother was a weaver of tapestries. Louise spent her childhood in France as an apprentice to her mother before she became a tapestry artist herself. She worked with fabric throughout her career, and this biographical picture book shows how Bourgeois's childhood experiences weaving with her loving, nurturing mother provided the inspiration for her most famous works. With a beautifully nuanced and poetic story, this book stunningly captures the relationship between mother and daughter and illuminates how memories are woven into us all....
