This is a sociological study of a distinct subculture - the Mafioso - whose behavioural patterns have been largely determined by the specific political, economic and social history of Sicily: a society characterized by a weak state and organized on the basis of self-help.
This book presents intelligent methods like neural, neuro-fuzzy, machine learning, deep learning and metaheuristic methods and their applications in both volcanology and seismology. The complex system of volcanoes and also earthquakes is a big challenge to identify their behavior using available models, which motivates scientists to apply non-model based methods. As there are lots of seismology and volcanology data sets, i.e., the local and global networks, one solution is using intelligent methods in which data-based algorithms are used.
Above the Crati Valley in Calabria, Southern Italy, lies a small hilltop village where life revolves around a lively bar, a wood-fired pizza oven, and the people who gather there. Into this world steps Johnny, an English expat who has lived among the locals long enough to be considered one of their own. Through laughter, misunderstandings, and more than a few glasses of wine, Johnny and his best friend Mario share the stories of the bar, the unforgettable characters who pass through its doors, and the escapades that unfold within. Some are surreal, some wonderfully ordinary, but all carry the warmth, mischief, and humanity of village life. Told with gentle humour and deep affection, John Broughtons's BAR TALES celebrate friendship, community, and the quirks of small-town life.
Mussolini, in the thousand guises he projected and the press picked up, fascinated Americans in the 1920s and the early '30s. John Diggins' analysis of America's reaction to an ideological phenomenon abroad reveals, he proposes, the darker side of American political values and assumptions. Originally published in 1972.
