Résumé:
A massive reduction in population and collosal overhaul of economic structure have presented enormous challenges for the people of east Germany over the past 20 years. As part of the International Building Exhibition Urban Redevelopment 2010, 19 towns and cities in the federal state of Saxony-Anhalt have implemented a series of innovative projects and formulated proposals as to how the ever-shrinking towns and cities of east Germany could be redesigned to accommodate their present status. This book provides a general view of the methods, methodology and results of this investigation. A historical review of the urban developments of the last two decades show the causes of urban reduction and the IBA's earliest solutions, and three scenarios on the themes of town, landscape and climate outline questions and possible developments for Saxony-Anhalt up to the year 2050. With the IBA, Saxony-Anhalt has also instigated a laboratory for the city of tomorrow, to sustain this project well into the future.

Résumé:
Amidst city concrete and suburban sprawl, Americans are discovering new ways to reconnect with the natural world. From community gardens in New York's Lower East Side to homeless shelters in California, the search for a more sustainable future has led grassroots groups to a profound reconnection to place and to the natural world. Studies of the health consequences of renewing a connection with nature support the urgency of providing green surroundings as cities expand and the majority of the earth's population lives in urban areas. Medical research results, from groups as diverse as healthy volunteers, surgery patients, and heart attack survivors, suggest that contact with nature may improve health and well-being. Engagement with nearby natural places also provides restoration from mental fatigue and support for more resilient and cooperative behavior. Aspects of stronger community life are fostered by access to nature, suggesting that there are significant social as well as physical and psychological benefits from connection with the natural world. This volume brings together research from anthropology, sociology, public health, psychology, and landscape architecture to highlight how awareness of locale and a meaningful renewal of attachment with the earth are connected to delight in learning about nature as well as to civic action and new forms of community. Community garden coalitions, organic market advocates, and greenspace preservationists resist the power of global forces, enacting visions of a different future. Their creative efforts tell a story of a constructive and dynamic middle ground between private plots and public action, between human health and ecosystem health, between individual attachment and urban sustainability.

Résumé:
Christophe Girot has occupied the Chair of Landscape Architecture at the ETH Zurich since the year 2000. Girot's projects are all based on simple geometric and gestural movements. His concept of garden architecture begins with the modelling of the earth surface. The resulting topography is the basis of a restrained plant vocabulary.

Résumé:
Most people do not think to observe geology from the sidewalks of a major city, but all David B. Williams has to do is look at building stone in any urban center to find a range of rocks equal to any assembled by plate tectonics. In 'Stories in Stone', he takes you on explorations to find 3.5-billion-year-old rock that looks like swirled pink-and-black taffy, a gas(...)

Williams has to do is look at building stone in any urban center to find a range of rocks equal to any assembled by plate tectonics. In 'Stories in Stone', he takes you on explorations to find 3.5-billion-year-old rock that looks like swirled pink-and-black taffy, a gas station made of petrified wood, and a Florida fort that has withstood three hundred years of attacks and hurricanes, despite being made of a stone that has the consistency of a granola bar.
