This paper discusses aspects of sustainable development and participation, especially in the context of land and forest management in Gedaref State in eastern Sudan. It also examines the increasingly relevant question of who should manage forest land, and is forest management more sustainable in the hands of local users or regulatory institutions.

Our human genome is full of viruses similar to HIV-1. These have played an important role in human evolution and still play an important role in human embryology and day-to-day chemistry. Just how important are they to our evolution past and future?
Where do viruses, such as Ebola and HIV, come from and why they are so aggressive? This book changed tenets of evolutionary virology, developing the concepts of aggressive symbiosis and plague culling, which explain much of the horror of plague virus
The symbiotic pattern of evolution is everywhere and allows us a very different and fascinating window into the way symbiotic viruses work, since all viruses are symbiotic, including those involved in our human reproduction.
