How to Prevent the Next Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic isn't over, but even as governments around the world strive to put it behind us, they're also starting to talk about what happens next. How can we prevent a new pandemic from killing millions of people and devastating the global economy? Can we even hope to accomplish this?<BR><BR>Bill Gates believes the answer is yes, and in this book he lays out clearly and convincingly what the world should have learned from COVID-19 and what all of us can do to ward off another disaster like it. Relying on the shared knowledge of the world's foremost experts and on his own experience of combating fatal diseases through the Gates Foundation, he first makes us understand the science of corona diseases. Then he helps us understand how the nations of the world, working in conjunction with one another and with the private sector, can not only ward off another COVID-like catastrophe but also go far to eliminate all respiratory diseases, including the flu.<BR><BR>Here is a clarion call - strong, comprehensive, and of the gravest importance - from one of our greatest and most effective thinkers and activists.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The origin story of one of the most influential and transformative business leaders and philanthropists of the modern age<BR><BR>“A surprisingly candid memoir of the Microsoft mogul’s early years…Reading this book feels like watching someone take a well-known black-and-white sketch, fill in the details, and paint it in vivid color.” —GeekWire<BR><BR>Everyone is programmed a little differently, and Bill Gates' unique insight led to business triumphs that are now widely known: the twenty-year-old who dropped out of Harvard to start a software company that became an industry giant and changed the way the world works and lives; the billionaire many times over who turned his attention to philanthropic pursuits to address climate change, global health, and U.S. education.<BR><BR>Source Code is not about Microsoft or the Gates Foundation or the future of technology. It’s the human, personal story of how Bill Gates became who he is today: his childhood, his early passions and pursuits. It’s the story of his principled grandmother and ambitious parents, his first deep friendships and the sudden death of his best friend; of his struggles to fit in and his discovery of a world of coding and computers in the dawn of a new era; of embarking in his early teens on a path that took him from midnight escapades at a nearby computer center to his college dorm room, where he sparked a revolution that would change the world.<BR><BR>Bill Gates tells this, his own story, for the first time: wise, warm, revealing, it’s a fascinating portrait of an American life.

How to Avoid a Climate Disaster
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • In this urgent, authoritative book, Bill Gates sets out a wide-ranging, practical—and accessible—plan for how the world can get to zero greenhouse gas emissions in time to avoid a climate catastrophe.<BR><BR>Bill Gates has spent a decade investigating the causes and effects of climate change. With the help of experts in the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, political science, and finance, he has focused on what must be done in order to stop the planet's slide to certain environmental disaster. In this book, he not only explains why we need to work toward net-zero emissions of greenhouse gases, but also details what we need to do to achieve this profoundly important goal.<BR><BR>He gives us a clear-eyed description of the challenges we face. Drawing on his understanding of innovation and what it takes to get new ideas into the market, he describes the areas in which technology is already helping to reduce emissions, where and how the current technology can be made to function more effectively, where breakthrough technologies are needed, and who is working on these essential innovations. Finally, he lays out a concrete, practical plan for achieving the goal of zero emissions—suggesting not only policies that governments should adopt, but what we as individuals can do to keep our government, our employers, and ourselves accountable in this crucial enterprise.<BR><BR>As Bill Gates makes clear, achieving zero emissions will not be simple or easy to do, but if we follow the plan he sets out here, it is a goal firmly within our reach.

*THE NO.1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER*Bill Gates is one of the most transformative figures of our age. In Source Code he takes us back to his beginnings.He describes with candour his childhood in Seattle, the centrality of family - his close relationship with his card-playing grandmother and his demanding but caring parents - his struggles to fit in, his rebelliousness, his first deep friendships and the impact of losing his closest friend.We see Gates's extraordinary mind developing, the restless teenager who discovered a love of coding and computing at the dawn of a new era and felt that 'by applying my brain, I could solve even the world's most complex mysteries'. We see the earliest signs of his phenomenal business acumen, which led him to drop out of Harvard at the age of 20 to devote all his energies to Microsoft, the company he started with his childhood friend Paul Allen. He writes about his first involvement with three Steves - Jobs, Wozniak and Ballmer - who would play a crucial role in so much that followed.The book ends in the late 1970s when Microsoft, still with only a dozen employees, signed its first deal with Apple. The deals would go on and Microsoft would grow unimaginably. Yet Gates never forgot his mother's reminder that he was merely a steward of any wealth that he gained. This warm and inspiring book, Bill Gates' origin story, allows readers to understand his energy and ambition - and to see how he sets himself in the world.

Clima. Come evitare un disastro. Le soluzioni di oggi. Le sfide di domani
Bill Gates ha passato gli ultimi dieci anni a studiare le cause e gli effetti del cambiamento climatico. Avvalendosi della consulenza di fisici, chimici, biologi, ingegneri, esperti di science politiche e finanza, ha individuato i passi necessari per evitare un disastro ambientale sul nostro pianeta. In questo libro, Gates non solo spiega perché dobbiamo mirare ad azzerare le emissioni di gas serra, ma presenta anche le soluzioni per raggiungere questo obiettivo vitale, offrendo una visione chiara delle sfide che ci attendono. Forte della sua esperienza di innovatore capace di imporre idee rivoluzionarie, Gates ci introduce alle tecnologie che già oggi aiutano a ridurre le emissioni, mostra dove e in che modo possono diventare più efficienti, indica in quali settori sono necessari progressi immediati, racconta le storie di chi sta lavorando alle prossime, essenziali, scoperte. L¿autore presenta un programma concreto per arrivare alle emissioni zero, suggerendo non soltanto le politiche che dovrebbero adottare le amministrazioni, ma anche quello che possiamo fare come cittadini per responsabilizzare su questa missione cruciale i governi, le imprese, e noi stessi. Bill Gates lo dice apertamente: azzerare le emissioni non sarà semplice, ma seguendo le proposte di questo libro finalmente è un obiettivo alla nostra portata. In un saggio documentato e autorevole, Bill Gates presenta un programma preciso e realizzabile per azzerare le emissioni di gas serra in tempo per evitare un disastro climatico.
