The increase in the present population, due to tourist flows, also activates a series of other sectors, generating significant economic benefits. At international level, the main tool for this type of evaluation has been identified in satellite accounting, which estimates the value added of the tourism sector, possibly …

Chapter The forgotten nautical astronomical instruments

Astrology and meteorology have always had great importance for agriculture and navigation.
