Paperback. SECOND EDITION - REVISED AND CORRECTED There is a precise moment when a civilisation stops understanding the war it is fighting. We are living ours. In 1914, Europe took thirty-seven days to turn the assassination of an archduke into the greatest catastrophe in its history. No one wanted it. No one managed to see it in time. Today the war has changed shape again: it is not declared, it is not seen and it does not end. It has no fronts and no uniforms. It shuts down hospitals and power grids. It manipulates elections. It empties bank accounts. It turns the phone in our pocket into the eyes and ears of a stranger. It is fought in the undersea cables that carry 95% of the world's communications, in the software of power stations, in the processes we still insist on calling democratic. It began decades ago. We are losing it without realising. The Invisible War tells that war like a thriller and documents it like a report: Stuxnet, the cyberweapon that in 2010 destroyed Iranian nuclear centrifuges without a single shot; the blackouts that left Ukraine in the dark in the depth of winter; the systematic interference in Western democracies; the artificial intelligence that has driven the cost of the lie to zero on an industrial scale; the Chinese robots that in twelve months went from folk dances to martial acrobatics before a billion people, while the world applauded without understanding what it was watching. But it is not only the account of what has already happened. It is an investigation into what we have lost: the distinction between peace and war, the border as the limit of sovereignty, truth as the common ground of debate. The three pillars on which the West built four centuries of civilisation, now eroding at a speed our institutions still cannot measure. Raffaele Di Marzio has spent more than twenty years inside the systems that manage these risks: banks, critical infrastructure, European regulators. He writes with the candour of someone who knows the mechanisms from within and no longer finds what he sees reassuring. He does not sell easy solutions, because easy solutions are the first form of disinformation. He offers something rarer and more necessary: the tools to understand before it is too late. The facts described in this book existed before they were written. They will still exist when you have finished reading it. The difference, now, is you. Second edition, revised and corrected: this version has been fully re-edited to remove typos and improve readability, taking readers' feedback into account. The editorial revision covers the Spanish, French and English editions. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

There is a precise moment when a civilisation stops understanding the war it is fighting. We are living ours.
In 1914, Europe took thirty-seven days to turn the assassination of an archduke into the greatest catastrophe in its history. No one wanted it. No one managed to see it in time. Today the war has changed shape again: it is not declared, it is not seen and it does not end.
It has no fronts and no uniforms. It shuts down hospitals and power grids. It manipulates elections. It empties bank accounts. It turns the phone in our pocket into the eyes and ears of a stranger. It is fought in the undersea cables that carry 95% of the world's communications, in the software of power stations, in the processes we still insist on calling democratic. It began decades ago. We are losing it without realising.

Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
Deberá devolver los bienes o entregarlos a Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, Illinois, U.S.A., sin demoras indebidas y, en cualquier caso, en un plazo máximo de 14 días a partir del día en que nos comunique su desistimiento del presente contrato.
