Rino Cammilleri - Nuovi consigli del diavolo custode. Per andare all'inferno senza passare dal via




Rino Cammilleri – Nuovi consigli del diavolo custode. Per andare all'inferno senza passare dal via


Italian | Piemme | 2007 | PDF | Pages 187 | ISBN: 8838488274 | 1.97 Mb






Consigli del diavolo custode, ovvero una lettera dall'inferno, scritta da un'anima dannata e inviata a un destinatario non meglio specificato, cioè a ogni lettore. Si descrive non tanto come si sta da quelle parti ma quanto sia facile andarci. L'autore dimostra come per andare all'inferno non sia necessario fare qualcosa di particolarmente malvagio: basta non fare proprio niente. Il mittente, ormai prigioniero della parte in cui si è calato, non può più fare altro che l'ultimo dispetto, e mischia ambiguità, disordine, verità e menzogna, così come fanno i diavoli. Tanto che alla fine diventa arduo distinguere realtà e illusione. Il tono sarcastico e pungente ne fa una lettura scorrevole, ma anche seria e attuale, in un momento in cui pochi parlano dell'inferno.







Madoff with the Money (repost)




Madoff with the Money by Jerry Oppenheimer


English | Aug 17, 2009 | ISBN: 0470504986 | 280 Pages | PDF | 2 MB




An intriguing look at Bernie Madoff the man, and his scam


Madoff with the Money is a deeply disturbing portrait of Bernie Madoff based on dozens of exclusive, news-making interviews. From the values Madoff was taught growing up in the working class town of Laurelton, Queens to his high-life on Wall Street and the super-rich enclaves of Palm Beach and the French Riviera, bestselling author Jerry Oppenheimer follows the disgraced money manager's trail as he works his way up the social and economic ladder, and eventually scams his trusting clients in a $ 50 billion Ponzi scheme.




Through Oppenheimer's in-depth reporting, you'll discover new revelations in this startling case, and become familiar with the trusting victims-ranging from non-profit Jewish charities to the likes of seemingly sophisticated individuals such as actress Jane Fonda who would "like to shake Madoff until his teeth fall out," the scion of the Baskin-Robbins ice cream empire who lost a bundle and was forced to rent out rooms in his house, and New Jersey Senator Frank Lautenberg. There's even Madoff's own sister-in-law and talk show host Larry King, who apparently didn't ask the right questions when he invested. All lost their much-needed life savings, while others saw fortunes small and large evaporate in the greedy financial operations of one of history's all-time charlatans.




Madoff With the Money


Delves into the details of the illusive man that lost investors billions


Weaves stories of Madoff's past with those of the present in an engaging and accessible style


Explores how the financial scam that Madoff ran cost individuals and institutions billions of dollars


Other titles by Oppenheimer: Toy Monster: The Big, Bad World of Mattel, and Just Desserts: Martha Stewart the Unauthorized Biography


While there may be other books on the Bernie Madoff debacle, none digs as deep or goes as far to uncover the truth behind the man, and his incredible scam.

Conversion of Large Scale Wastes into Value-added Products (repost)




Conversion of Large Scale Wastes into Value-added Products by Justin S.J. Hargreaves, Ian D. Pulford, Malini Balakrishnan and Vidya S. Batra


English | 2013 | ISBN: 146651261X | 174 pages | PDF | 8 MB




Concern about the fate of waste products produced by a wide range of industrial processes has led to the realization that they may have potential uses and, therefore, value. In an effort to develop more sustainable processes and reduce waste storage, the use of waste as a resource has been gaining attention worldwide. Consequently, there have been a large number of studies aimed at utilizing such wastes.


Conversion of Large Scale Wastes into Value-added Products discusses various selected classes of large-scale waste and their current applications and potential future applications.




This book provides a snapshot of a continually evolving field, which includes both well-established processes and a drive toward developing strategies for new applications of wastes. The first chapter provides a general introduction to the area of large-scale waste utilization, including drivers for waste recovery, and secondary processes and products for waste reuse. Subsequent chapters discuss applications and potential applications in specific classes of large-scale waste:


• Various types of waste generated from different metal processing operations


• Waste generated by coal combustion, a major source of power generation that produces enormous quantities of waste


• Waste electrical and electronic equipment, important for recycling finite resources and reducing health and environmental risks


• Food waste, a significant and diverse waste stream with economic and environmental impacts


The final chapter presents a general conclusion to the broad subject of waste utilization, summarizing the topics and addressing future trends in waste research.
