Dilbert (leaving out many other comics)

· Scott Adams explains everything:
does JIT work in Italy ?

- Not only engineering -
Some suggested readings
on persuasion techniques

· For absolute beginners:
Robert B. Cialdini, "Influence, the psycology of persuasion" (in Italy,"le armi della persuasione", Giunti).

· A memorable work, focused on communication:
Vance Packard, "The hidden persuaders" (in Italy, "I persuasori occulti", Einaudi - 1958 (!!!!).

· A little step further, heading to hypnosys:
R. Bandler - J. Grinder, "Patterns of the hypnotic techniques of M.H.Erickson" (in Italy, "I modelli della tecnica ipnotica di M.H. Erickson", Astrolabio).

· A masterpiece (watch out, it is applied to psycotherapy):
Milton H. Erickson, "Hypnotic realities" (in Italy, "tecniche di suggestione ipnotica", Astrolabio).

· THE book on NLP:
R. Bandler - J. Grinder, "The structure of magic" (in Italy, "La struttura della magia", Astrolabio).

R.V.Joule - J.L.Beauvois, "Petit traité de manipulation à l'usage des honnetes gens" (in Italy, "Piccolo trattato di manipolazione ad uso degli onesti", Rizzoli).

Sport

· Fencing, first at all. Being in the Fiamme Oro - Polizia di Stato - Fencing Team for six years had left some nostalgic feeling. Anyone wants to challenge me ? :-)

· REALLY love Table-Tennis. Anyway I won't decline an invitation for a soccer match.

· Swimming (eight years), Taek Won Doo and Karate (four years), plus some other various sport (sailing, for instance, on Laser 1,2 and "cat"...)

Personal Computing

· I began steamlining the config.sys with MS-DOS 3.1 and a performant monochrome Hercules Video Array (the 3-colors CGA was a dream...) and I resolved my love-hate relationship with the PC only in late 1999, with my first laptop....

· I'd love to start in again some project with neural networks...

World Wildlife Fund - WWF

· I've been a militant activist in WWF from 1997 to 1999. At last I switched to the H.R. section, managing the volounteers group in the Latium Delegation.

Music

· Want to play together ? My instrument is transversal flute but I can (hardly) manage a piano or a guitar.

· Favourite authors: The Beatles, The Queen, U2, R.E.M, The Police, PinkFloyd, P.Simon & A.Garfunkel, Vangelis P.,The Blues Brother, The Beachboys, G.Brassen - Classical authors: L.v.Beethoven, N.Rimskij-Korsakov, J.S.Bach, P.I.Tchaikovsky, G.Rossini, A.Vivaldi, R.Wagner, F.Chopin, M.Mussorgsky;

Gastronomy

· I attended a sommelier course in 1999.

· Looking for some pals for a ONAF course next winter....

Jewellery

· From the serial: "once I was a goldsmith...(!)". Want to see some of mine creations with the "microfusione a cera persa" technique ? Here you are three examples:

- Ciondolo in oro con perla bianca
- Ciondolo in oro con perla grigia scaramazza
- Anello in oro bianco con diamanti tagliati a brillante

All realized in the "Anthares" goldsmith laboratory, Via Nuchis - Luras 07025 - SASSARI
(MANY thanks to Stefania Depperu...my beloved teacher!)

And here I am...
