Taylor & Francis Landscape as Dialogue
Book SynopsisLandscape as Dialogue redefines the process of understanding landscapes for students and practi tioners so they can create more integrated, healthy places. Traditional site analysis sees the landscape as a series of components, evaluated individually, before being put back together. This perpetuates existing social hierarchies, maintains the need for high energy inputs and trumpets iconic designs that contribute to gentrification. This book examines the process of landscape dialogue as a natural give and take with the environment, drawing on diverse and challenging writings from design, geography, philosophy and ecological sciences to probe the relationship between humans and landscape. Each chapter begins with a discussion of a theoretical approach to landscape dialogue, such as perception, information or critique, before offering a series of practical steps and representation techniques that designers can use in understanding the landscape. Detailed illustrated case studies

The History Press Ltd The Coinage of Roman Britain
Book SynopsisThe first two chapters provide a resume of how the coinage of the central Roman state changed, developed and stumbled. In Britain most coins in museums and collections come from hoards (coins deposited in a group) or from coins found singly during excavation or walking over fields. These two classes are very different and are examined separately. The author then looks at how coins were used in Roman Britain, and finally explains the differences between Britain and the rest of the Roman Empire. Despite the need for quantitative as well as well as qualitative analysis, Richard Reece has - for the benefit of those who are understandably put off by reams of statistics - banished all numbers and numerical methods to a single short Appendix. The result is a book sparkling with Dr Reece''s characteristically incisive insights that can be appreciated by anyone interested in Britain''s past.

It is another masterclass by Ali Heath in creating soulful spaces that sing with warmth and cut their own design path.'' - Nicole Gray, Interiors Editor, YOU magazine''Ali is undoubtedly one of the best, most consistent and versatile stylists working today, and her new book Create is testimony to that.'' - Ben Kendrick: Editor, Modern Rustic; Homes and Style Director, Country Living magazine***n her third book Cocoon, interior stylist, designer and writer Ali Heath invites the reader to create a home sanctuary that focuses on the human touch, as an antidote to our fast-paced, tech-driven modern world.This way of decorating is so much more than just a look or style - it''s about taking a holistic approach that draws upon all our senses, not just the visual, and connects us more meaningfully to ourselves and our surroundings. In the past creating a sanctuary was about the decoration of a few key rooms, now it is about how the home as a whole makes us feel. Cocooning is not about isolation or shutting down and does not have to mean going off-grid - it is simply about tuning back into our emotions, creativity and curiosity to satisfy our need for shelter, comfort and wonder. Photographed in inspirational homes around the world - from small inner-city sanctuaries to spacious island retreats, Cocoon celebrates a design approach that speaks to the heart.
