Readers with either a keen or a hazy grasp of what landscape architecture entails will gain an altogether sharper and more encompassing understanding after absorbing the 1,000 examples from around the world presented in this brightly delineating volume... The reigning concern now, alongside accessibility and appeal, is environmental preservation and improvement. From those basic needs spring astonishingly creative approaches... The small but sharp color photographs, effectively sequenced by theme, are accompanied by succinct and genuinely informative captions... A thousand times over these gracefully designed spaces are welcoming and dynamic, living proof of our ability to dwell in harmony with nature.--Donna Seaman"Booklist" (11/01/2012)
