There is a growing body of knowledge revealing a sweeping array of
connections between public health and green infrastructure - but
not until now have the links between them been brought together in
one comprehensive book. Green Infrastructure and Public Health
provides an overview of current research and theories of the
ecological relationships and mechanisms by which the environment
influences human health and health behaviour. Covering a broad
spectrum of contemporary understanding, Coutts outlines: public
health models that explicitly promote the importance of the
environment to health ways in which the quality of the landscape is
tied to health challenges of maintaining viable landscapes amidst a
rapidly changing global environment This book presents the case for
fundamental human dependence on the natural environment and creates
a bridge between contemporary science on the structure and form of
a healthy landscape and the myriad ways that a healthy landscape
supports healthy human beings. It presents ideal reading for
students and practitioners of landscape architecture, urban design,
planning, and health studies.
