Champions the science of first-hand encounters, and thereby eschews our discipline's reliance on reducted and interpreted secondary source mapping in the representation of landscape. Ethnographic fieldwork, Doherty suggests, is anthropology and landscape architecture working together, which explains the intertwined socio-ecological narrative. . . Work in the field of landscape architecture may be more expansive than it has ever been, but the ethnographic socio-ecological work in the field for landscape architecture still offers rich, novel and inspiring outcomes.-- ""Landscape Review"" Proposes a valuable theoretical and operational tool that illustrates the essential role of fieldwork in landscape architecture . . . Landscape Fieldwork describes a vital poetic-practice that allows us to develop new understandings, new theories and can help us to find out unconventional solutions to accompany the transformations of places and landscapes.-- ""Architettura del Paesaggio""
