He considers the why, the what, the how and the where of garden design by tracing the development of gardens through history and across social, political and philosophical boundaries. Fully illustrated throughout, each chapter critically examines a particular type of garden both as part of a wider socio-political context and as an aesthetic entity, asking how the design of each garden reflects the philosophical approach of its creator. Inspirational, reflective and informative, this book brings together knowledge and understanding from a diverse range of related interests to add depth and breadth to a fascinating subject., Highly illustrated to present and explain in a most appealing way, the historic styles of gardens with particular emphasis on the philosophy of garden design. This carefully structured overview makes the large subject of garden history accessible to a wide range of readers. The sections on history and philosophy are written as succinct essays, illustrated with photographs or perspective drawings. The essays deal with the ideas and historical conditions, which led to the making of particular types of gardens. The section on styles will focus on plan analysis and will be illustrated. Diagrams illustrate the key features of styles and representative garden plans with short descriptions explaining each style.
