The Landscape of Man
Now available in a new, updated edition, The Landscape of Man is a formative study on the history of landscape architecture. From small gardens to megacities, humans have always molded their environment to express or symbolize ideas---power, order, comfort, harmony, pleasure, and mystery, to name a few. In 1975, authors Geoffrey and Susan Jellicoe linked these ideas together to demonstrate that they are manifestations of a single, innate process. The authors examined human-created spaces from ancient Mesopotamia, Greece, Rome, the Muslim world, medieval Europe, India, China, Japan, pre-- Columbian America, and the post-Renaissance West in all its phases, as well as planning and landscape architecture from the mid-- to late twentieth century. With a new introduction and final chapter by internationally respected landscape critic Tim Richardson, this edition explores modernism to postmodernism, post--industrialism to large-scale urban planning in China and elsewhere, before ending with small--scale healing and community gardens. Redesigned throughout with a contemporary look and feel, and illustrated in full color, this valuable resource to landscape architecture is made available to a new generation of readers interested in uncovering the history of our built environments.

Making European Space
"Making European Space crystallizes and critically examines the key policy ideas emerging in the new field of European spatial planning, and explores the arguments surrounding policy themes such as polycentric development, sustainability, mobility and peripherally. It develops a theoretically informed critique based on discourse analysis and cultural sociology of space. The book is divided into four general sections. The first section, "Theoretical Framework," contains a general introduction to the themes, followed by two theoretical chapters on respectively European integration and the approach used for analyzing spatial policy discourses. "Representations of Space" contains the empirical analysis of the cases. This analysis is thematic and covers the language and images representing the analyzed cases which are drawn widely from the emerging literature on the implementation of the European Spatial Development Perspective (ESDP) as well as the authors' own empirical research. "Spatial Practices"deals with the practices, institutions, governance structures and questions of implementation relating to these policy fields. In the final section, "Power, Rationalities and Knowledge," the underlying rationalities of these spatial policy discourses are presented and wider implications for European integration are discussed.
