Descrizione

The Maldives are universally celebrated as the epitome of a tropical paradise: a dream archipelago, home to ultra-luxurious resorts and pristine beaches. But this glossy image conceals a reality that is much richer, deeper, and more surprising. This book takes the reader beyond the crystal-clear surface, revealing the Maldives as a crossroads of stories, exchanges, and knowledge, an ecological and cultural laboratory that is unique in the whole world.
