In 2025, edited by Maristella Agosti and Virginio Cantoni, Storia dell’Informatica Italiana (History of Italian Computing, CNR Edizioni) was published in three volumes. I co-authored two chapters in Volume 3: Le Olimpiadi Italiane di Informatica (The Italian Informatics Olympiads, with Roberto Grossi) and L’Informatica in edicola (Computing on the Newsstand, with Stefano Ferilli).

The three volumes (in Italian) can be downloaded in full from eprints.bice.rm.cnr.it. Below is the complete index of all 41 chapters, each individually downloadable via its own DOI (the file also includes the volume cover, prefaces, and index).
