  An informed, photo-filled guide to “all of the essential stopping places [with] terrifically detailed information on the architectural joys of Rome.” —Books Monthly 
   
  Rome’s architectural remains date as far back as the city’s founding in the 8th century BCE. The primitive settlement that began on the Palatine Hill grew over the next thousand years to the caput mundi—the capital of the world—the largest, most powerful presence in the ancient Western world. Along the way, Rome’s architectural styles, whether developed organically or appropriated from the cultures it subjugated and absorbed, were physical evidence of the politics, propaganda, and pragmatism of the times. 
   
  Written for readers passionate about Rome and how its architecture is inimitably linked to its history, The Architecture Lover’s Guide to Rome is the armchair architect’s tour of the Eternal City. It provides a timeline that begins with the founding of Rome and documents its significant architectural monuments and styles through the millennia, with photos, maps and practical information for visiting.

  After the best-seller The End is My Beginning, co-authored with his father Tixiano Terzani, the long-awaited Folco Terzani’s comeback with a spiritual fable of nature, men and God. 
  This spiritual fable intends to make us reflect on our own life, the things we put our security in, the values we live by, the dreams we have set aside as wishful thinking. It makes us look at the community around us, the connections we have. Through the life of a dog who’s left on the side of the road, abandoned by his owner. He then comes across a wolf, that tells him to go on a journey to find his true identity and who his creator really is. He then meets a pack of wolves, where he learns about their ways, there values through the individual characters, who are also on a journey to discover their creator. This is a parable that encourages mindfulness, purpose and spiritual searching and spiritual formation. 
  The book is a top pick for those seeking a thought-provoking read, a blend of fiction and philosophy that challenges the reader to question their own beliefs and values. It's a journey of self-discovery, of finding one's place in the world, and of understanding the intricate web of relationships that bind us to one another. 
  For fans of Bear Grylls (Soul Fuel), and Julia Cameron (The Artist's Way).
