********************************************************************************
Everybody knows Alberto Angela and the the most part of us was fascinated by the episodes of his "Ulysses, the pleasure of discovering", listening him telling stories about the ancient past and the modern today. The same feelings come from this book and the trip made by a coin through the Roman Empire. You can almost hear the Alberto's voice while explaining the life in the Empire, from the haircuts of matrons, to surgeries, to fighting scenes between legions and barbarian people. The story goes fast, never boring or predicted, always precise and detailed, nothing to do with boring textbooks of Roman History.
