Sustainability and Historic Preservation: Towards a Holistic View
broadens the horizons of the mushrooming drive to correlate the
objectives of these two spheres. To date, discussions of the
relationship between historic preservation and sustainability have
generally focused on the energy consumption of buildings. The nine
chapters in this book show how that agenda can and should be
expanded by examining many other facets of the environment,
including agricultural lands, urban waterworks, irrigation systems,
natural settings, an arboretum, and post-World War II suburbs.
Written by specialists from a variety of disciplines anthropology,
architecture, landscape architecture, and urban history among them
the contents explore new realms in which historic preservation and
sustainability can have common purpose. This book addresses
subjects of concern to many persons engaged in both fields and
argues the case for creating a greater spectrum of common ground
between them.
