Australia’s Great River Landscape - Murray River and Mallee
Shane Strudwick has been photographing the Murray River and Mallee region for this book for over 6 years starting in 2004. He's aiming to reveal a small part of the secrets, stories, character and connections of this wonderful region for you to enjoy. The stunning, unique and sometimes quirky images show a landscape and communities that have diversity, strength and beauty not seen anywhere in the world. As the Murray River has been through significant drought and stress this book shows you there's a lot more to the river than meets the eyes.
Wrightscapes : Frank Lloyd Wright's Landscape Designs
Here is the first book to examine the environmental landscape designs of Frank Lloyd Wright, probably the world's best known and most influential architect. WRIGHTSCAPES analyzes 85 of his works, and pays particular attention to site planning, landscape design, community scale, and regional planning.
Landscape Design USA features 70 completed landscape projects in USA. Projects are classified under the following sections: 1) Plazas and Streetscapes, 2) Institutional, 3) Corporate and Commercial, 4) Parks, Gardens and Memorial, and 5) Residential. It is the intention of the publisher to make this publication an annual record of landscape design in US.
In this explosive new book, Harris tears down the wall between scientific facts and human values, arguing that most people are simply mistaken about the relationship between morality and the rest of human knowledge. Harris urges us to think about morality in terms of human and animal well-being, viewing the experiences of conscious creatures as peaks and valleys on a "moral landscape." Because there are definite facts to be known about where we fall on this landscape, Harris foresees a time when science will no longer limit itself to describing what people do in the name of "morality"; in principle, science should be able to tell us what we ought to do to live the best lives possible.
This publication explores landscape planning: putting the plan on paper; selecting, placing, and planting trees and shrubs; and maintaining the home grounds.
