Cooper lavora come corriere per Mercuryo, titanica multinazionale del commercio online, ma non è un corriere qualsiasi. Nessuno sa, infatti, che l’azienda possiede una tecnologia segreta capace di far viaggiare nel tempo! Un giorno però, durante una normale giornata di lavoro, avviene un piccolo contrattempo, che nel caso di spedizioni ordinarie comporterebbe solo un ritardo nella consegna, ma nel caso di Cooper rischia di bloccarlo nel passato! Una commedia fantascientifica beffarda e pirotecnica che, muovendosi fra futuro e passato, diventa una puntuale riflessione sul presente.

First published in 1999, the main feature of this book is its multidisciplinary nature, since the book focuses on the complexity of spatial/ economic networks from several methodological points of view. For this purpose both theoretical and empirical works have been included. The aim of the book is to provide an updated and fresh look at the mentioned issue with innovative and creative papers coming from leading experts belonging to different disciplines. Therefore the book could be considered as an expert and critical guide - through different methodological approaches - to the topic of (complex) networks in the space-economy. All the contributions provide innovative and in some cases provocative elements to the understanding of networks and development over space.

This is a bundle of six titles in the series exploring the dangers of animals in the wild; Crocodile, Monkey, Platypus, Polar Bear, Swan and Tiger.

Early learners are encouraged to ask and answer questions about nature (e.g. Why do rainbows have so many colors? Why do some trees lose their leaves? Why do some clouds have rain falling out of them? Why do volcanoes stay quiet for so long and then erupt? Why do flowers smell so good?) in this playful text. Each question is posed and answered first with an imaginative "silly" answer followed by the correct answer. The text sequence and repetition creates an engaging game for young readers as they are encouraged to dream up their own "silly" answer on the way to learning.
