This book promises to fill a gap in the literature of Landscape Design that has remained unbridged for far too long. It is the only book available on the subject which provides guidance and instruction for the professional designer. Designers must have a wealth of knowledge on the actual techniques of design and construction, materials and methods, and this volume provides many of the answers they would seek in all these areas. Conditions in many countries result in problems which are not best solved by high tech western solutions, and traditional local techniques, which may almost be forgotten, may provide the solution.
W.F. Hill has many years' direct practical experience of landscape design in the tropics and has taught the subject at university level. His writing style is fluent and engaging and the volume provides a highly comprehensive text. He offers practical advice and suggestions both for the student and the newcomer to landscaping in the tropics
