Atlas of Lebanon by Eric Verdeil Pdf

After fifteen years of reconstruction in a relatively peaceful environment spanning the years 1990 to 2004, Lebanon has experienced successive violent political events resulting from complex entangled internal and external struggles. The Syrian crisis and its political, economic and demographic consequences on Lebanon have increased these tensions. This atlas sheds light on these new challenges and adds new data that complete the analyses already published in the Atlas du Liban. Territoires et société (Atlas of Lebanon. Territories and Society) released in 2007 by the same research team. Some of its components are included in this edition. Beyond the international regional crisis and the population movements, it takes into account Lebanon’s socio-economic dimensions, the environmental issues linked to uncontrolled urbanization and to natural risks, as well as conflicts due to local territorial management.

Lebanon is once again perceived as a territory divided between multiple allegiances. The second chapter is devoted to the analysis of population dynamics, despite the lack of reliable data whose sources are subject to discussion. It includes analyses of internal population flows, the Lebanese diaspora, and the assessment of Syrian refugees’ influx. The third chapter shows the fragility of the Lebanese economic model. Its dependency on foreign investments and on...

The Atlas of Animals by Cristina Maria Banfi,Rita Mabel Schiavo,Cristina Peraboni Pdf

"Open the wildest atlas ever--and learn amazing facts about a variety of animals and the people who help them. Meet animals fierce and timid, large and small, fast and slow, and even some that are already extinct. This stunningly illustrated atlas takes children across the globe, from polar ice and tundra to the rainforests and desert, so they can locate each creature precisely and understand its unusual characteristics and behavior. There are Asian lions and Indian rhinoceros, wolves and wildcats, lemurs and sharks, wombats and koalas, howler monkeys and tapirs, and so many more. In addition, the atlas introduces seven inspiring people (one for each continent) who have dedicated their lives to saving our planet's fauna, including: Charles Darwin, who encountered giant tortoises on the Galapagos Island; Konrad Lorenz, a Nobel Prize winner who analyzed the behavior of graylag geese; Dian Fossey, renowned for her work with the gorillas of Rwanda; Armand David, who gathered evidence on the giant panda; and President Ulysses S. Grant, who helped create Yellowstone Park, thus protecting the endangered bison."--
