Résumé:
"Nature Over Again" reveals the story behind the majority of Finlay's renowned garden installations, and is the first study to examine his garden designs and 'interventions' in a consequential way. An accomplished Scottish poet, writer, artist and gardener, Finlay infused his garden designs with a distinct aesthetic philosophy and poetic sensibility.John Dixon Hunt situates his analysis of Finlay's gardens in the context of that broader philosophy and poetic work, drawing on Finlay's books, prints and other written reflections about the art and practice of garden design. From the Max Planck Institute in Stuttgart to the Serpentine Gallery in London to the University of California at San Diego campus, the book documents how Finlay built an oeuvre of international renown, and ultimately argues that Finlay's innovations are best understood in the context of the long tradition of European gardens.

Résumé:
Le commerce équitable s'est illustré, ces dernières années, comme une possible réponse aux inégalités dans les échanges entre le Nord et le Sud. Le succès du commerce équitable a révélé les consommateurs des pays développés y étaient sensibles et étaient conscients des nouveaux défis apparus avec la mondialisation. Comment répondre aux besoins alimentaires des populations et dans le même temps conserver les espaces naturels, protéger la biodiversité, faire face aux enjeux écologiques liés au développement industriel et à l'urbanisation... En y associant les populations paysannes héritières de savoirs et de savoir-faire respectueux des équilibres écologiques, répond le commerce équitable. Car l'agriculture paysanne est, par son histoire, porteuse d'une gestion des territoires qui fonde la diversité agricole, alimentaire et, ce faisant, humaine de notre planète. Ce livre permet de découvrir le terrain où s'exerce chaque jour les effets du commerce équitable, ces jardins du monde où sont cultivés les produits, cacao, café, thé, sucre, fruits, épices, riz, fonio, quinoa... par des groupements de petits producteurs. Ce livre est une illustration de la richesse, de la beauté, de la diversité et aussi de la fragilité d'un monde qu'il s'agit de préserver.

Résumé:
To propose a botanical garden in one of the world's most rapidly expanding cities is of course a gesture that invokes ecological issues regarding sustainability and the conservation of plant life. The German landscape architect's planning group Valentien intend the garden that they are constructing, for Chenshan (Hill Chen) in the Song Jiang District of Shanghai (just outside the city center), to be such a gesture, as well as a model of plant conservation and scientific research development-and one of Shanghai's most ambitious landmarks. The project is enormous, and informed throughout by the architects' ecological imperatives: Energy-saving technologies are to be utilized in the garden's buildings (greenhouses, laboratories and education center) and renewable materials will be deployed throughout.
