DESIGNING PATCH DYNAMICS
February 11, 2008
‘The book Brian and I are launching is called ‘Designing Patch Dynamics’ and it is the product of transdisciplinary research between urban design and ecosystem science based in Baltimore MD. It is published by Columbia University Press. As well as presenting the work of two years of urban design, and one year of architecture studio work, it is balanced with substantial academic essays from our ecologist partners and urban design professors.
It is available from Merritt Books for $19.95 which includes shipping and handling. Contact Merritt Books for e-mail or phone orders.

integrative practices.
