This novel begins where The Gabriel Chronicles: Book 1—the Beginning ends. After the World Guidance Council (WGC) had taken complete control of the world’s governments and Alexander Gabriel had relinquished control of the WGC, he turned his mind to other things, extraordinary things. Scientists and engineers, led by the incomparable Dr. Isley and financed by Gabriel Industries, began designing and perfecting a new generation of prosthetics. These lifelike prosthetics looked, felt, and moved like a natural limb, allowing amputees throughout the world to begin living normal lives. But Alex, Dr. Isley, and his team didn’t stop there. They took this incredible technology to its ultimate conclusion. They built a complete, viable, synthetic life form (SLF). But again, this wasn’t the end of Alex and Dr. Isley’s contributions. Over the following ten years, they designed and built a ship, a colossal ship—a ship to take all the best from Earth to colonize another planet.
The term biodiversity defines not only all the variety of life in the Earth but also their complex interactions. Under the current scenario of biodiversity loss, and in order to preserve it, it is essential to achieve a deep understanding on all the aspects related to the biological interactions, including their functioning and significance. This volume contains several contributions (nineteen in total) that illustrate the state of the art of the academic research in the field of biological interactions in its widest sense; that is, not only the interactions between living organisms are considered, but also those between living organisms and abiotic elements of the environment as well as those between living organisms and the humans.

A fascinating work that provides a wealth of information on one of the world’s most biodiverse ecosystems. This is the result of investigations by almost 30 groups of researchers from various disciplines. They performed ecosystem analyses following two gradients: an altitudinal gradient and a gradient of land use intensity and ecosystem regeneration following human use. Based on these analyses, this volume discusses these findings in a huge variety of subject areas.
