Seit dem Erscheinen des zweibandigen Standardwerkes von F. HONCAMP, "Handbuch der Pflanzenernahrung und Dungerlehre", sind mehr als dreissig Jahre vergangen. Bei den sturmischen Fortschritten auf allen Gebieten der Natur- wissenschaften, insbesondere der Chemie, Pflanzenphysiologie, Biochemie, Bodenkunde und Technologie, ist dieses zur Zeit seines Erscheinens so aus- gezeichnete Handbuch naturlich langst veraltet. Zweifellos besteht heute ein dringendes Bedurfnis nach einem ahnlichen Werk. Wenn wir von dem ursprunglichen Plan abgekommen sind, das HONCAMP- sche Handbuch in neuer Auflage zu bearbeiten, so vor allem deswegen, weil die tiefgreifende Entwicklung auf diesem Gebiet eine vollig neue Gestaltung des Werkes geboten erscheinen liess. Es gliedert sich nun in drei Bande. Band I behandelt im wesentlichen die physiologischen Grundlagen der Pflanzenernahrung. Er enthalt eine ausfuhrliche und systematische Darstellung der eigentlichen Ernahrungsphysiologie. Auf eine Erorterung der allgemeinen pflanzen- physiologischen Grundlagen konnte dabei verzichtet werden, weil im RUHLAND- sehen "Handbuch der Pflanzenphysiologie" ein umfassendes und modernes Nach- schlagewerk zur Verfugung steht. Band II beschaftigt sich mit dem Boden und den Dungemitteln. Unter Berucksichtigung der modernen Agrikulturchemie haben wir das heutige Wissen uber den Boden als Standort und Nahrstoffquelle der Pflanze unter den Verhalt- nissen der landwirtschaftlichen Praxis und des Gartenbaues bzw. des Forstwesens systematisch zusammengefasst. Die folgenden Kapitel befassen sich mit der Beschreibung und Herstellung der verschiedenen Wirtschafts- und Handels- dungemittel. Gerade auf diesem Gebiet bestehen in der wissenschaftlichen Literatur erhebliche Lucken, da keine grosseren Lehr-oder Handbucher vorhanden sind, die sich eingehender mit der Technologie der Dungemittel und der Dungung beschaftigen.

Ecohumanism and the Ecological Culture - The Educational Legacy of Lewis Mumford and Ian McHarg (Paperback): William J Cohen Ecohumanism and the Ecological Culture - The Educational Legacy of Lewis Mumford and Ian McHarg (Paperback)
William J Cohen; Foreword by Frederick R Steiner
R965 Discovery Miles 9 650 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Lewis Mumford, one of the most respected public intellectuals of the twentieth century, speaking at a conference on the future environments of North America, said, "In order to secure human survival we must transition from a technological culture to an ecological culture." In Ecohumanism and the Ecological Culture, William Cohen shows how Mumford's conception of an educational philosophy was enacted by Mumford's mentee, Ian McHarg, the renowned landscape architect and regional planner at the University of Pennsylvania. McHarg advanced a new way to achieve an ecological culture through an educational curriculum based on fusing ecohumanism to the planning and design disciplines. Cohen explores Mumford's important vision of ecohumanism-a synthesis of natural systems ecology with the myriad dimensions of human systems, or human ecology and how McHarg actually formulated and made that vision happen. He considers the emergence of alternative energy systems and new approaches to planning and community development to achieve these goals. The ecohumanism graduate curriculum should become the basis to train the next generation of planners and designers to lead us into the ecological culture, thereby securing the educational legacy of both Lewis Mumford and Ian McHarg.

Frederick R Steiner
R1,409 Discovery Miles 14 090 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

"The Living Landscape" is a manifesto, resource, and textbook for architects, landscape architects, environmental planners, students, and others involved in creating human communities. Since its first edition, published in 1990, it has taught its readers how to develop new built environments while conserving natural resources. No other book presents such a comprehensive approach to planning that is rooted in ecology and design. And no other book offers a similar step-by-step method for planning with an emphasis on sustainable development. This second edition of "The Living Landscape" offers Frederick Steiner's design-oriented ecological methods to a new generation of students and professionals.

"The Living Landscape" offers

- a systematic, highly practical approach to landscape planning that maximizes ecological objectives, community service, and citizen participation
- more than 20 challenging case studies that demonstrate how problems were met and overcome, from rural America to large cities
- scores of checklists and step-by-step guides
- hands-on help with practical zoning, land use, and regulatory issues
- coverage of major advances in GIS technology and global sustainability standards
- more than 150 illustrations.

As Steiner emphasizes throughout this book, all of us have a responsibility to the Earth and to our fellow residents on this planet to plan with vision. We are merely visiting this planet, he notes; we should leave good impressions.
