CREATING JAPANESE GARDENS
Ref: AW10
Philip Cave
For the Japanese, the garden is a microcosm of the world, full of abstract symbols. Their fascinating gardening tradition has its origins in ancient philosophy and religion and is the perfect expression of the Oriental affinity with nature. These serene and distinctive gardens, with their potent spiritual force, have inspired gardeners the world over. Creating Japanese Gardens brings this great tradition within the scope of any modern gardener through an examination of its philosophy and the meaning of its essential features, providing the knowledge and techniques for Westerners to understand and design a Japanese-style garden in the true spirit of the art.

GARDENS OF THE SPIRIT: Create Your Own Sacred Spaces
Ref: AW39
Roni Jay
The land we plant, cultivate and decorate has always represented perfection in a flawed world. Gardens provide fresh food, beauty for the eyes and a restful place for the soul. This book will help you to create your own special garden, using some of history's most lovely and exotic landscapes as a model and inspiration. Choose from the meditative tranquillity of a Zen garden, the fruit-and-rose-filled sanctuary of an Islamic garden, the pathways, arbours and fountains of a medieval garden, and an Italian renaissance garden.
