Will not be admitted to the oral the student that in the written test reported a lower score 18.

Recommended reading

The literature on the subject is vast and varied. For the teacher does not exist books to recommend. In particular almost every subject there are several contributions on internet, also produced by the technical expert working on the territory of Fire department.
For example, one of the final activities of the course would be to produce a selected bibliography divided by topics discussed in the lessons, to benefit of future courses.
