      Geopolitics of Rare Earths

      The Strategic Challenge for the New Industrial Revolution: Key Players and Investments

      China blocks their exports. The United States looks to Greenland to extract them. Europe does not produce them, but desperately needs them: Rare Earths are today’s gold of the 21st century.

      Geopolitics of Rare Earths takes the reader inside the new great game of critical raw materials, where China controls 80% of refining, the United States rushes to find new deposits, and Europe–still lacking a common strategy–tries to focus on recycling and partnerships. The book clearly answers crucial questions: Which industrial groups are leading this change? What role can Europe and Italy play? What financial instruments allow operators and investors to participate in this global challenge?

      Enriched with charts, tables, and a color map on the inside covers locating rare earth reserves, the book combines geopolitics, economics, and finance, offering a valuable tool to navigate a contest that will determine wealth, energy security, and power in the coming decades.

      The Tao of Business

      The Art of Rebelling Against the Ordinary

      Rebelling against fate, breaking the rules, and living a life worth living. A journey for those who are not satisfied with “that’s how it’s always been done,” but instead are fueled by questions, dreams, and inner revolutions.

      Halfway between a personal growth book, a biography, and an entrepreneurial essay, The Tao of Business is a true journey of discovery along a different path–the path of the extraordinary.

      Dario Vignali–founder of several companies, including Marketers, the most important Italian community of founders, creatives, and digital professionals–shares the journey that took him from being a shy young man to becoming an entrepreneur and creating several successful businesses. The real achievement, however, was not accumulating tangible results, but deeply understanding the meaning of a full, authentic, and conscious life.

      The Tao of Business, the result of years of experiences, research, mistakes, and achievements, is a powerful guide for those who want to create something of their own, pursue freedom, and live with intention. Not just a book, but an invitation to rewrite the rules of your own game.

      Genius writing

      The power of words to develop your idea machine

      Stop thinking about what to write and start writing to think! Matteo Bortolotti reveals the practical side of writing: a super-power with which to realise ourselves and our goals.

      Artificial intelligence can write anything, but it can never write what you think, feel and really want. After more than twenty years of writing and coaching, the author invites us to rediscover the irreplaceable power of writing ‘for humans’ by demonstrating why we should continue - or begin - to practice it. Writing, in fact, is not just for telling stories: writing is an extension of the mind, a tool with which to imagine and plan one’s life.
