The book "Mani: Morphology-History-Archaeology-Monuments-Culture" is an expression of respect and love for Mani and its people, but it is also a useful guide for every visitor-explorer to become acquainted with the greatness of Mani and its inhabitants.

The region of Laconia has Mount Taygetus as its backbone and is a rocky, barren, and poor place (las = stone + konos), and it was named Mani over time.

Mani is located at the edge of Europe and has a long history and culture. The historical journey of Laconia-Mani begins from the Paleolithic period and continues with the Homeric epics, classical Greece, the Byzantine years, the Frankish and Venetian rule, the Ottoman rule, and the struggles of the Maniots for freedom.

Specifically, apart from the morphological and summarized historical elements presented at the beginning of the book, it discusses the Asclepia-ancient healing centers, the ancient temples and cities of Laconia-Mani, the Byzantine and post-Byzantine church architecture and religious life. It also mentions the castles, towers, and tower houses of Mani's reality, the social organization, customs, traditions, customary law, and briefly touches on the laments that are interactively related to the relevant topics.
