Landscapology. Learning to Landscape the City

With a foreword by Charles Waldheim, chair of landscape architecture at Harvard, this book explores and promotes an inspirational new vision for the urban landscape. Essays and illustrations, and six case studies of urban landscaping problems and solutions, show why Van Beek and Vermaas propose a new discipline: Landscapology, where landscape architecture, urban planning and ecology are combined in a new profession, for a more sustainable world.
