«Allegro ma non troppo» is the satirical essay by Carlo M. Cipolla, published by Booket in 2012 in paperback (112 pages, in Spanish).
A parody of academic knowledge in two texts: the first ironizes about medieval economic history and the spice trade; the second humorously states the mathematical laws of human stupidity, presented as an abundant and dangerous social force. Cipolla uses paradox and absurdity to dismantle the seriousness of social science.
Belongs to Booket's Divulgación collection. Translated by María Pons from the original Italian.
For readers who enjoy the short essay, academic satire, and social criticism with a humorous touch.
Carlo Maria Cipolla was an Italian economic historian. He was a member of both the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the American Philosophical Society.
