<p>For me, great landscape architecture results from an ongoing philosophical response to time and place. It reflects a culture wrestling with its relationship to nature in all its forms. In her book, <i>Revealing Change in Cultural Landscapes: Material, Spatial and Ecological Considerations </i>Catherine Heatherington explores this issue with great care.<br />This is a probing piece of work where philosophical positions are interrogated, past and possible direction acknowledged and exemplar-built works discussed. But most importantly, the reader is left to form their own conclusion, and, in this way, the door is left open for new possibilities. </p><p><strong>- Philip Coxall, Chairman, McGregor Coxall</strong></p>
