La nostra vita, ci ricorda Bill Bryson, è il risultato di "una straordinaria dose di fortuna biologica", l'esito di una serie lunghissima di eventi, per molti versi assolutamente misteriosi. Questo libro prova a spiegare come un tale colpo di fortuna si sia potuto verificare.

Ottimista globale, utopista impaziente, riluttante imperatore contemporaneo - per censo e per influenza -, Bill Gates dedica ormai da anni le sue risorse, economiche e intellettuali, a cercare di risolvere i problemi del mondo. Il padre di Microsoft Corporation si racconta in questa conversazione con Massimo Franco, ripercorrendo le tappe significative della sua vita e tratteggiando la sua filosofia di intellettuale organico della globalizazzione.

From his unassuming beginnings as a curious young computer enthusiast to his meteoric rise as the co-founder of Microsoft and one of the wealthiest individuals in the world, Bill Gates's journey is a testament to the power of innovation, vision, and determination.

Vitangelo Moscarda, il protagonista dell'ultimo, straordinario romanzo di Pirandello, in seguito alla banale osservazione della moglie a proposito del suo naso che pende un po' da una parte, si mette sulle tracce del vero se stesso, accorgendosi però, che se il corpo può essere unico, così non accade per l'anima. La sua ricerca finisce per prendere inquietanti aspetti che si avvicinano ad una molteplicità di sapore faustiano, fino ad una modificazione tale dei propri comportamenti, che spinge sua moglie, i parenti e gli amici a considerarlo pazzo.

L'autore di "Breve storia di (quasi) tutto" ci accompagna nel viaggio più affascinante: quello dentro di noi. Bill Bryson è un insostituibile compagno di viaggio, qualunque siano la meta e il percorso. Questa volta ci guida in una interessante passeggiata all'interno del corpo umano, dalla testa ai piedi. Molti di noi, infatti, non hanno un'idea precisa di come il corpo funzioni in tutte le sue parti e di cosa succeda al suo interno, della sua capacità di difendersi dalle malattie e di guarire, ma anche dei numerosi modi in cui qualcosa può andare storto.
