Résumé:

"Providing at once a vast panorama and a profound analysis of contemporary European garden art, this volume reveals the multiple historical, artistic, architectural, scientific, technological and aesthetic influences that have contributed to the horticultural masterpieces of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. The book shows how in the field of garden design, the use of new materials, the influence of ecology and art as well as town planning have brought about a break with tradition, and how new goals are emerging."--Jacket.
