Story0
Amateurs and professionals studying birds at the end of the 19th century were a contentious, passionate group with goals that intersected, collided, and occasionally merged in their writings and organizations. Driven by a desire to advance science, as well as by ego, pride, honor, insecurity, religion and other clashing sensibilities, they struggled to absorb the implications of evolution after Darwin. In the process, they dramatically reshaped the study of birds. Daniel Lewis here explores the professionalization of ornithology through one of its key figures: Robert Ridgway, the Smithsonian Institution’s first curator of birds.

Story0
Thurgood Marshall was the most important American lawyer of the 20th century. He transformed the nation's legal landscape by challenging the racial segregation that had relegated millions to second-class citizenship. He won 29 of 33 cases before the United States Supreme Court, was a federal appeals court judge, served as the US solicitor general, and, for 24 years, sat on the Supreme Court. Marshall is best known for achievements after he relocated to New York in 1936 to work for the NAACP.

Does your blood pressure surge if the car in front of you turns without signaling? Do your neck veins pulsate when a cashier takes too long to ring you up? Does relaxing seem like it'll have to wait until you're dead? Then your name could very well be Brian Frazer. On paper, Frazer is the world's healthiest guy. He eats right, exercises regularly, gets plenty of sleep, has never smoked and has missed only one day of flossing in the last five years. But inside he's a swirling vortex of angst, capable of contracting a new malady every month.

To glimpse America’s future, one needs to look no further than its college campuses. Of those institutions, none holds more clout than Yale University, the hallowed “cradle of presidents”. In Sex and God at Yale, recent graduate Nathan Harden undresses perversity among the Ivy and ideology gone wild as the upper echelon of academia is mired in nothing less than a full-fledged moral crisis.

Questo audiolibro è un unicum. Mai fino ad ora un giudice della Corte aveva descritto il funzionamento di un organo così centrale nella vita giudiziaria e politica del nostro paese, e che parla solo attraverso le proprie sentenze. Con prosa misurata ma non reticente, sfilano nelle pagine, minuziosamente annotati, nove anni incandescenti (dal 2005 al 2014) punteggiati da sentenze "storiche", precedute e seguite da polemiche e speculazioni anche giornalistiche.

Nel novembre 2018 l'astrofisico Federico Nati parte per una missione in Antartide con un team internazionale. La missione è rischiosa e ambiziosa: spedire nella stratosfera un telescopio di tre tonnellate per studiare la nascita delle stelle e le origini del cosmo. Gli scienziati combattono contro le difficoltà del lavoro sperimentale, amplificate dalla ostilità dell'ambiente polare, per portare a compimento l'esperimento su cui hanno scommesso anni di lavoro e carriera.

"Oggi il ministro, con mia sorpresa, mi ha comunicato la revoca dell'incarico di presidente ASI. È il primo spoils system di ente di ricerca. Grazie alle migliaia di persone con cui ho condiviso quattro anni fantastici di spazio italiano." Con questo messaggio, il 6 novembre 2018, Roberto Battiston annuncia il suo allontanamento dall'Agenzia spaziale italiana. Un cambio improvviso, imposto dalla politica, diventa per l'autore l'occasione di raccontare per la prima volta dall'interno il mondo dello spazio italiano.

Poche donne nella storia ebbero la possibilità di distinguersi nelle discipline scientifiche, considerate appannaggio maschile. La più nota, nella tarda antichità, fu senza dubbio Ipazia, scienziata e filosofa, nata ad Alessandria d'Egitto nel 370 d.C., inventrice di strumenti come il planisfero e l'astrolabio. Figlia del matematico Teone, e lei stessa primo matematico donna della storia, fu la più nota esponente alessandrina della scuola neoplatonica, circondata dal rispetto di allievi giunti da ogni angolo del mondo.

"Al termine della prima settimana, seicento assaggi avevano già azzerato ogni mia volontà di capirci ancora qualcosa. In quattro, cinque giorni mi spazzolavo la storia del Barolo o dell'Amarone, pretendendo anche di giudicarla. Era come stilare la classifica dei migliori film della stagione, fermandosi ai titoli di testa. Il mio spettacolo non andava mai oltre l'unghia del bicchiere. E seduti di fronte a me, non vedevo più colleghi e collaboratori, ma polli da batteria, costretti a beccare senza sosta." Con tono schietto e pungente, Tiziano Gaia ci conduce nel mondo dei vini.

La sua immagine è dappertutto. Su tazze, magliette, sui muri delle città, su spille e borse; e le sue frasi e i suoi aforismi sulla scienza e sulla vita sono citati ogni giorno. Albert Einstein è il vero scienziato iconico del secolo scorso; il suo nome - anche per chi fatichi a masticare le teorie fisiche - è sinonimo di genio eccentrico (famoso l'aneddoto che vuole il suo guardaroba pieno di completi identici così da non perdere tempo al mattino a pensare come vestirsi); saggezza bonaria; ma anche risolutezza.

L'audiolibro, racconto di una vita, cerca di ricondurre la vicenda di Basaglia - tra l'antifascismo, il dopoguerra, l'università e la direzione degli ospedali psichiatrici di Gorizia e Trieste - all'interno dei mutamenti epocali che coinvolsero la società e la cultura italiane.
