Summary: A Must For Anyone Interested In The Landscape!
Comment: This small book, with a simple title, Understanding Ordinary Landscapes, is a huge resource in the area of cultural landscape, and our connections through culture to nature. The initial attraction was the fun and entertaining sound of the title- understanding ordinary landscapes. Something for recreational travel reading? It was not to be. Months later I have yet to reconcile more than a few of the classical issues, dilemmas, enigmas, and debates in this seemingly simple subject area of our relationship to the world we live in.

Understanding Ordinary Landscapes is a collection of contemporary cultural landscape essays and is a theoretical basis for comprehending the mysteries of perception of the landscape, the environment, and furthering the culture versus nature discourse. It brings critical analysis, and an annotated bibliography to the relatively new area of landscape architectural theory. A must for professionals and anyone interested in the landscape.
