This book discusses the remarkable plant diversity of the Maltese Archipelago. Despite its relatively small area and long-term human exploitation, many different plant communities occur in this territory. The book presents phytosociological investigations, together with taxonomical studies, which have been conducted over more than forty years, highlighting the unique features of this central Mediterranean insular ecosystem. It also describes the phytosociological role played by several narrow endemic or phytogeographically relevant taxa and introduces many phytocoenoses exclusively growing in the archipelago. The study integrates the palaeogeographic issues linked to the ancient and intriguing history of the different civilizations that succeeded on the islands for thousands of years. The book also focuses on the N2000 habitats.
Tra realtà e fantasia questo romanzo è un affascinante viaggio, un'analisi interiore, tesa verso una dimensione superiore alla ricerca del senso della vita. Da un giovane delfino intento a cogliere il senso della sua esistenza, inizia a dipanarsi la trama che porterà il suo spirito a maturare e poi alla metamorfosi: diventa un'anima. Nell'Eden la giovane anima affronta l'apprendistato alla vita, un percorso irto di imprevisti che la conducono a indagare sul mondo in cui dovrà nascere. Scopre che laggiù, distratto dai cosiddetti "bagliori della vita", l'uomo ha quasi scordato di essere formato da una parte fisica e da una spirituale e legandosi a ciò che gli appare reale, ha imparato a sopravvivere tra caduche utopie mondane. Teme che anche lei, nascendo, possa "mondanizzarsi". Per dipanare i suoi dubbi, decide di scendere sulla Terra. Tra gli uomini, l'angelica clandestina è coinvolta in affascinanti avventure che la portano a comprendere il vero scopo della vita. Una storia che conduce alla serenità.
