The aim of this book is to present, in depth, updated information
on soil and microbial processes involved in mixed plantations of
Eucalyptus and N2-fixing species, especially Acacia mangium,
focusing on Forestry, Soils, Biology, Ecosystem Services and
Sustainability. The potential of substituting chemical N fertilizer
by a consortium of leguminous species that fix atmospheric nitrogen
is an interesting solution for a more sustainable, economically and
environmentally sound forest system. Among the main topics, we
present reference topics on soil microbiology, as biological
nitrogen fixation, the role of mycorrhiza in mixed plantations,
bio-indicators of soil quality, and plantgrowth promoting bacteria
with biotechnological potential. Here we discuss Ecosystem services
and ecological benefits of these systems, the invasive potential of
A.mangium, as well as the regulations and perspectives of land use
policies for mixed forests and their role in the sustainability of
the system.

This book written by D. Duarte, a fifteenth century Portuguese
King, embodies in a very unique way the spirit of knighthood. This
is a result of D. Duarte's revolutionary way of approaching this
art, by focusing both combat and horse-riding techniques on the
person behind these skills. Being a strong believer in the ability
to improve one's character, D. Duarte's lessons on will power,
managing fear and being one with the environment, are as relevant
for today's society, if not even more, as when they were written.
Thus, the precise and straight forward way used by D. Duarte to
approach these psychological and spiritual topics make this book a
valuable adviser for anyone looking to progress from Martial Artist
to Instructor and, finally, becoming a Teacher. D. Duarte's
brilliant insights into the Human spirit are now available through
this 2nd edition, which includes a NEW CHAPTER on recent research
that raises intriguing questions regarding both identity of the
portrait usually thought to be D. Henrique, Duarte's brother, as
well as D. Duarte's own name.
