Spectrumpedia second edition - it's here!
Hi everybody,
it is with great pleasure that I annonunce you the release of the new Spectrumpedia in its second edition, revised and enhanced in every part. It is now divided into two volumes.
Please note that at present it is available in Italian only, but a translation is underway. Although my spare time has noticeably decreased these days (maybe you noticed that I pretty much disappeared from this forum lately), I managed to translate half of the first volume so far, and I plan to have it available as a free sample before the Spectrum's 40th anniversary. Hopefully the second volume will be ready within the first half of May.
As in 2012, in fact, a free of charge digital edition in PDF format for consultation purposes on PCs and mobile devices can be downloaded from my website. It is distributed under the Creative Commons CC-BY-NC International 4.0 license. Even if you do not understand Italian, I suggest you to take a look at it so that you can get an idea of the work's scope and depth. There are so many corrections and enhancements it would just be too long to mention.
The Italian printed edition is already for sale. It is possible that once completed, the English translation will also be published on paper.

I translated the first volume of the book to English. You can download it from the address in the first post.
I shall try to translate the second in time for next 23rd of April, but I am not sure about it. Too much to do these days :-S
Just one little note: I am not an English native speaker, and although I cared to make my translation as accurate as possible, there could be some imperfections in it - grammar, spelling etc. If you believe you found some, please write me at alessandrogrussu (at) gmail (dot) com and I will look into it.
I wish you a good reading :)
(Currently too busy with other stuff, like fixing my computer...)
Anyway, this looks lovely. :x

Meanwhile, some more corrections have been made to Volume 1, and the translation of Volume 2, after a hiatus of a couple of weeks, proceeds again ~O)
