Description

Named probably the most American Society of Landscape Architects’ Best possible Books of 2016, Nature and Cities asserts that ecologically based totally urban designs and plans are very important as the sector urbanizes and the results of climate change grow more severe. On this choice of essays, leading international landscape architects, architects, city planners, and urban designers explore the industrial, environmental, and public health benefits of integrating nature more fully into cities and of linking ecological information to actions across many scales, communities, and regions. The book builds upon the idea of Ecological Design and Planning, also edited by George F. Thompson and Frederick R. Steiner (Wiley, 1997).
