Abstract
The Poetics of Gardens exemplifies some of the problems inherent in making garden history applicable to contemporary garden design. Written by two distinguished American practitioners and professors of architecture, with axonometric drawings by William Turnbull, the book argues that the impetus for the planning of new gardens can be provided by historical example.
