La philocalie, ou art de vivre dans la beauté et le bien, a inspiré un grand nombre d'enseignements spirituels, consignés dans une anthologie en langue grecque dont la rédaction s'échelonne du IVe siècle au XVe siècle : « Philocalie des pères neptiques, du grec nepsis : sobriété de l'âme ». Elle a été composée à partir des écrits des Pères de l'Église dont beaucoup d'ermites qui prônent une sagesse de vie, faite « d'ascesis et de theoria », d'exercices de contemplation et de réflexion par lesquels la conscience se trouve purifiée. Le choix et les commentaires de Jean-Yves Leloup se sont portés sur des auteurs incontournables : Antoine, Evagre le Pontique, Jean Cassien, Macaire l'Egyptien, Isaac le Syrien, Jean Climaque, Maxime le Confesseur, Syméon le nouveau Théologien, Grégoire Palamas, Séraphim de Sarov et Silouane l'Athonite et à quelques pères anonymes des premiers siècles qu'on appelait les Thérapeutes du désert. Ces saints pères sont aussi appelés « théophores », et parfois « christophores » c'est-à-dire qu'ils portent en eux la présence de Dieu ou du Christ. C'est la flamme fondamentale de ces êtres éveillés que Jean-Yves Leloup a voulu partager afin d'entretenir les étincelles vacillantes de la quête spirituelle d'aujourd'hui. Théologien, philosophe et conférencier, Jean-Yves Leloup est l'auteur de nombreux ouvrages dont Écrits sur l'hésychasme, Prendre soin de l'Être, L'assise et la marche et Métanoïa.

Barthélemy provides us with a first look at the fragments of the Greek Minor Prophets Scroll from the Cave of Horror and embarks on a careful examination of this scroll's place in the history of Septuagint translation and revision. He poses questions and answers that have yet to be fully explored. Devanciers d'Aquila is described as "epoch-making" (Robert Kraft-Gnomon), "a stimulating contribution" (Sidney Jellicoe-Journal of the American Oriental Society), and "a monograph of singular importance" (Geza Vermes-Journal of Semitic Studies).

Remote sensing monitoring of the occurrence and damage of desert locust is conducted by integrating cutting-edge technologies and methods in cross-disciplinary fields in remote sensing science, geographic information science, agronomy, plant protection, agricultural meteorology, mathematics, and computer science. The main contents include spatio-temporal data analysis and processing, desert locust breeding areas monitoring, pest migration path analysis and damage monitoring. Moreover, a desert locust remote sensing monitoring system is constructed and applied in the region of Africa and Asia countries. This book not only provides technical reference for remote sensing monitoring and application of desert locust but also serves as a research reference for scholars and graduate students engaged in agricultural remote sensing, agricultural information technology, plant protection and other related field. It will help to improve remote sensing monitoring and application of desert locust.

Egypt is revered as the home of the famous Desert Ascetics, who first embraced a monastic life and established homosocial communities on the borders of their urban centres in the Nile Valley. Regarded as angels and warriors, the wisdom of the Desert Ascetics formed part of the oral and literary tradition of wonder-working saints whose commitment to asceticism was legendary and inspirational. This book grounds the mythologized stories of Desert Ascetics in the materiality of the desert, demonstrating the closeness of the desert, the connections between non-monastic and monastic communities, and the exciting insights into lived monasticism through the archaeology of monasticism in Egypt.
