Examples of the ABC method are presented through international case studies and are illustrated with photographs and maps.Places: Linking Nature and Culture for Understanding and Planning is written for environmental planners, decision-makers, students, and all those who are concerned about the history and future of places, presenting a new, more highly integrated way of thinking that will help address serious challenges in effective, efficient, and equitable ways.…
