With contributions from people at the forefront of developments in this field, in both Europe and North America, The Dynamic Landscape provides a valuable synthesis of current thinking. 'Buy it for its excellent text and celebrate the fact that the contributors are such articulate horticulturists, capable of presenting so clearly an increasingly important aspect of the use of plants in public open space.'- Peter Thoday, The Horticulturist 'This is a much-needed book containing vast amounts of useful information ... It should help all those involved in the design and management of public landscapes to take the plunge into naturalistic planting.' - Isabelle van Groeningen, Garden Design Journal March 2005 'Its clear and easy-to-read text will be of value to all working in amenity horticulture and the design and management of public greenspace. It is a textbook for social horticulture, but of real interest to everyone who has an interest in plants. I can think of very few IoH members who would not be delighted to own this book.'- Peter Thoday, The Horticulturist
