• The economics of park design: getting more park for your money and getting more money for your park.
• A richly illustrated discussion on the right and wrong ways to design seating arrangements
• The latest developments in the linkage of pervious pavement with storm-water management, along with issues of survival for plants in dense urban environments.
• Comprehensive guidelines for the client seeking a consulting designer and the designer seeking a client, from the earliest initiation to the finished product.
• Increased examples and discussion of the relationships and purposes of the elements of park design, as well as experts’ opinions of what makes a good park versus a great park.

The Artificial Anatomy of Parks by Kat Gordon Pdf

A young woman is thrust back into the midst of the dysfunctional, secretive family she escaped in this“heart-piercing psychological drama…a stunner” (Carol Cassella, author of Oxygen). At twenty-one, Tallulah Park lives alone. There's a sink in her bedroom and a strange damp smell that means she wakes up wheezing. It’s far from luxurious, but it’s far away from her difficult family. Then she gets the call that her father has had a heart attack. Now she’s returning to the root of her bad memories: a world of sniping aunts, precocious cousins, emigrant pianists, and lots of gin, all presided over by an unconventional grandmother. A world where no one will answer Tallie’s questions: Why did Aunt Vivienne loathe Tallie’s mother? Why is everyone making excuses for her absent father? Who was Uncle Jack and why would no one talk about him? As Tallie struggles to grow into independence, she will learn the hard way about damage and betrayal, that in the end, the worst betrayals are those we inflict on ourselves. “With heartbreakingly understated prose, Kat Gordon lays out the terrible loneliness of a child at the center of an exploded, secretive family. It is an autopsy of how we love and an exploration of forgiveness.” —Liza Klaussmann, author of Tigers in Red Weather “A genuine and sincere expression of a troubled young soul.”—The Guardian “A compulsive family drama…an excellent read.”—Emma Chapman, author of How To Be a Good Wife

The Anatomy Museum by Elizabeth Hallam Pdf

Anatomy museums around the world showcase preserved corpses in service of education and medical advancement, but they are little-known and have been largely hidden from the public eye. Elizabeth Hallam here investigates the anatomy museum and how it reveals the fascination and fears that surround the dead body in Western societies. Hallam explores the history of these museums and how they operate in the current cultural environment. Their regulated access increasingly clashes with evolving public mores toward the exposed body, as demonstrated by the international popularity of the Body Worlds exhibition. The book examines such related topics as artistic works that employ the images of dead bodies and the larger ongoing debate over the disposal of corpses. Issues such as aesthetics and science, organ and body donations, and the dead body in Western religion and ritual are also discussed here in fascinating depth. The Anatomy Museum unearths a strange and compelling cultural history that investigates the ideas of preservation, human rituals of death, and the spaces that our bodies occupy in this life and beyond.

Anatomy Museum by Elizabeth Hallam Pdf

The wild success of the traveling Body Worlds exhibition is testimony to the powerful allure that human bodies can have when opened up for display in gallery spaces. But while anatomy museums have shown their visitors much about bodies, they themselves are something of an obscure phenomenon, with their incredible technological developments and complex uses of visual images and the flesh itself remaining largely under researched. This book investigates anatomy museums in Western settings, revealing how they have operated in the often passionate pursuit of knowledge that inspires both fascination and fear. Elizabeth Hallam explores these museums, past and present, showing how they display the human body—whether naked, stripped of skin, completely dissected, or rendered in the form of drawings, three-dimensional models, x-rays, or films. She identifies within anatomy museums a diverse array of related issues—from the representation of deceased bodies in art to the aesthetics of science, from body donation to techniques for preserving corpses and ritualized practices for disposing of the dead. Probing these matters through in-depth study, Anatomy Museum unearths a strange and compelling cultural history of the spaces human bodies are made to occupy when displayed after death.

Plant Anatomy by Richard Crang,Sheila Lyons-Sobaski,Robert Wise Pdf

Intended as a text for upper-division undergraduates, graduate students and as a potential reference, this broad-scoped resource is extensive in its educational appeal by providing a new concept-based organization with end-of-chapter literature references, self-quizzes, and illustration interpretation. The concept-based, pedagogical approach, in contrast to the classic discipline-based approach, was specifically chosen to make the teaching and learning of plant anatomy more accessible for students. In addition, for instructors whose backgrounds may not primarily be plant anatomy, the features noted above are designed to provide sufficient reference material for organization and class presentation. This text is unique in the extensive use of over 1150 high-resolution color micrographs, color diagrams and scanning electron micrographs. Another feature is frequent side-boxes that highlight the relationship of plant anatomy to specialized investigations in plant molecular biology, classical investigations, functional activities, and research in forestry, environmental studies and genetics, as well as other fields. Each of the 19 richly-illustrated chapters has an abstract, a list of keywords, an introduction, a text body consisting of 10 to 20 concept-based sections, and a list of references and additional readings. At the end of each chapter, the instructor and student will find a section-by-section concept review, concept connections, concept assessment (10 multiple-choice questions), and concept applications. Answers to the assessment material are found in an appendix. An index and a glossary with over 700 defined terms complete the volume.

Ultrasonographic Anatomy of the Face and Neck for Minimally Invasive Procedures by Hee-Jin Kim,Kwan-Hyun Youn,Ji-Soo Kim,You Soo Kim,Sung Ok Hong,Jongju Na Pdf

This is the very first book to describe the superficial anatomic structure of the face and neck by means of detailed ultrasonography (US). This superbly illustrated book will help aesthetic physicians to familiarize themselves with the US anatomy of the face and neck and to understand the applications and benefits of US when performing minimally invasive aesthetic procedures in this region. A deep understanding of anatomy is imperative if such procedures are to be safe and effective. Bearing in mind the range of potential anatomic variations, US can offer vital assistance in identifying target structures of the face beneath the skin when carrying out treatments that would otherwise be performed “blind”. In this book, readers will find detailed guidance on the use of US in the context of botulinum toxin and filler injections, threading procedures, and other minimally invasive aesthetic approaches. This is done with the aid of more than 530 US images, including cadaveric dissections and illustrations of volunteers and patients. For novices, valuable information is also provided on the basics of US imaging.
