La difficile comunicazione tra esperti e pubblico costituisce un problema di lungo corso, con cui in passato si sono misurati scienziati illustri. Uno di questi è Gian Carlo Wick (1909-1992), il meno noto dei "ragazzi di via Panisperna," che al termine della carriera volle narrare in una serie d’interventi l’avventura del gruppo di Fermi e l’epopea della fisica nel Novecento. I testi raccolti in quest’antologia offrono un esempio virtuoso di divulgazione, unendo al rigore scientifico la capacità di spiegare con parole comprensibili il miracolo della "fisica diversa" che, praticata con modestissime risorse finanziarie, fece di via Panisperna un centro di ricerca di livello internazionale. [Abstract translated by Google Translate: This is the abstract in English… The difficult communication between experts and the public is a long-standing problem, with which illustrious scientists have measured themselves in the past. One of these was Gian Carlo Wick (1909-1992), the least known of the "Via Panisperna boys," who at the end of his career wanted to narrate the adventure of Fermi's group and the epic of physics in a series of interventions. in the twentieth century. The texts collected in this anthology offer a virtuous example of dissemination, combining scientific rigor with the ability to explain in understandable words the miracle of "different physics" which, practiced with very modest financial resources, made Via Panisperna an international research center.]
