View Rights Portal"Prueba olímpica" test demystifies what is in front of him. Here prose poems are explored, there are verses that become epigraphs of a following poem, obsessions that open a process that can be endless, wounds that discover, themselves, that it makes sense to mock their existence. Lorena has a natural force that disturbs those who read her, like that bird that murmurs near our ear. This book is inserted in the tradition to modify it.

"Hidden in his horn he guards the secret of the jungle”. This might be as well the beginning of a novel, but it's an inspired riddle about wild animals. The illustrations in high varnish of this edition highlight the different skin textures of each animal and invites the reader to discover a new way of reading in a tactile and playful way.
There are many hypotheses describing the interactions involved in biological invasions, but it is largely unknown whether they are backed up by empirical evidence. This book fills that gap by developing a tool for assessing research hypotheses and applying it to twelve invasion hypotheses, using the hierarchy-of-hypotheses (HoH) approach, and mapping the connections between theory and evidence. In Part 1, an overview chapter of invasion biology is followed by an introduction to the HoH approach and short chapters by science theorists and philosophers who comment on the approach. Part 2 outlines the invasion hypotheses and their interrelationships. These include biotic resistance and island susceptibility hypotheses, disturbance hypothesis, invasional meltdown hypothesis, enemy release hypothesis, evolution of increased competitive ability and shifting defence hypotheses, tens rule, phenotypic plasticity hypothesis, Darwin's naturalization and limiting similarity hypotheses and the propagule pressure hypothesis. Part 3 provides a synthesis and suggests future directions for invasion research
This is a story about a monkey who is left without a tree, because she didn’t want to share it with anybody. Moral: The story educates children that it is perfectly safe to share. If they are overly attached to something, they can lose the thing they love the most.
This is a food book. A book that nurtures. That purifies.That detoxifies. That tries to bring us closer to our inner voice, thanks to wisdom of one who has spiritual resources and intellectual baggage, like two weapons that together set fire to the soul of those who are willing to receive. A hope-giving book. A book, which in Juliet's loving pen, makes clear the power of creation as an inevitable product of the union of being human and the magic that transcends it. A book that becomes a gift in each sentence. Lorena Pronsky-Psychologist and writer
