Today
Urania is currently published every month, but with a slightly decreasing success; Urania Collezione sells a little more copies. Urania is by far the longest life science fiction series published in Italy (in July 2005 the issue number 1500 was released: it contained the translation of Stories for Men, a short novel by John Kessel; Il ranch di Cranwell, a short novel by Giorgio Monicelli; and short stories by Fruttero & Lucentini, Gianni Montanari, and Giuseppe Lippi). Both series share editor-in-chief Giuseppe Lippi and cover artist Franco Brambilla.

Famous quotes containing the word today:
“Xenophobia looks like becoming the mass ideology of the 20th-century fin-de-siècle. What holds humanity together today is the denial of what the human race has in common.”
—Eric J. Hobsbawm (b. 1917)
“The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“That we can come here today and in the presence of thousands and tens of thousands of the survivors of the gallant army of Northern Virginia and their descendants, establish such an enduring monument by their hospitable welcome and acclaim, is conclusive proof of the uniting of the sections, and a universal confession that all that was done was well done, that the battle had to be fought, that the sections had to be tried, but that in the end, the result has inured to the common benefit of all.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
