        Invasive alien plants and animals are known for their disruption of ecosystems and threat to biodiversity. This book highlights their major impact on human health. This includes not only direct effects through contact with the species via bites, wounds and disease, but also indirect effects caused by changes induced in ecosystems by invasive species, such as more water hyacinth increasing mosquito levels and thereby the potential for malaria. Covering a wide range of case studies from different taxa (animals and plants), and giving an overview of the diverse impacts of invasive species on health in developed and developing countries, the book is a significant contribution that will help in prioritizing approaches to controlling invasive species and mitigating their health effects. It covers invasive plants, marine species, spiders and other arachnids, ticks and dust mites, insects, mosquitos and other diptera, freshwater species (invertebrates and fishes), amphibians and reptiles, birds and mammals. Key Features Collects together the major health impacts for the first time Covers animal and plant invasive species Examines issues in developed and developing countries The broad spectrum of the analyzed case studies will ensure the appeal of the book to a wide public, including researchers of biological invasions, doctors, policy-makers and managers, and students of invasive species in ecology, animal and plant biology and public health medicine.

        Metamorphoses of the Fairy Tale

        by Antonella Cagnolati, Angela Articoni

        Survived for millennia, handed down and told from generation to generation, beyond the space and time in which they arose, fairy tales have traveled and crossed borders wherever there were communities prepared to listen to them and empathically accept their deepest meaning. Through fantastic form these narratives have distilled and conveyed an archaic wisdom – result of the experiences practiced by humanity in its complex struggle to survive: men and women of all times have found answers to their doubts, questions and problems that for centuries gripped their destinies and to which it was necessary to find creative and adventurous solutions, showing the wide palette of human conditions and events.

        Going Solo on Lake Como

        by Ciara O'Toole

        Sometimes flying by the seat of your pants is the best thing you can do … When Ciara O’Toole and her husband move to Lake Como, Italy, they make plans – to run their own businesses, to learn the language and to immerse themselves in the Italian way of life. But just a few months into the adventure Ciara’s marriage ends and she finds herself alone in a country where she doesn’t speak the language. She is faced with a choice: return to Ireland or stay in Italy and make her new life work. Determined to make a go of it, she throws herself into everything – forging new friendships – whirlwind romances, attempting to eat her own weight in four-cheese pizzas … and learning to fly a seaplane! Her new passion grips her as she works tirelessly towards an all-important milestone: her first solo flight. Told with warmth, humour and disarming honesty, Going Solo on Lake Como is the inspirational story of how one woman finds her wings and takes to the skies. ‘It made me laugh, it made me cry. It is epic in scope but incredibly intimate.’ Jane Maas

There lives the boy,in the bunker, since the seals that used to preserve mankind’s survival have beenbroken. He is a privileged boy, but everything is about to end, to collapse, perhapsforever. This is an apocalyptic novel, set in the distant future, where technology andmonstrosity prevail; overshadowing each other, confining what is left of the humanrace in ever narrowing spaces, and making emotions burst into mighty manifestationsof violence and power. T.I.M.E. is the last room of a wrecked castle on theedge of the abyss, it’s the last word before the end comes, the shiver that permeatesthose who recognise that destruction is before us, and that we have to fight to defeatit, even though it bewitches us. Mythological creatures that have inhabited the mostancient stories and legends of our culture, take here the shape of the darkest partsof humankind. In the book, we find bunkers, castles, citadels and imaginary planets,all in a fantasy novel that draws from the reality and casts incredible visions into afuture with all the makings. Paolo Salvini, whose imagination and ability to surprisenever fail, portraits Good and Evil, which contain passion, causes for reflection andcreativity, catching the reader’s attention thanks to an incredibly fast-paced plot.
