Reviews

For me, great landscape architecture results from an ongoing philosophical response to time and place. It reflects a culture wrestling with its relationship to nature in all its forms. In her book, Revealing Change in Cultural Landscapes: Material, Spatial and Ecological Considerations Catherine Heatherington explores this issue with great care. This is a probing piece of work where philosophical positions are interrogated, past and possible direction acknowledged and exemplar-built works discussed. But most importantly, the reader is left to form their own conclusion, and, in this way, the door is left open for new possibilities. - Philip Coxall, Chairman, McGregor Coxall
