Wildlife and Roads: The Ecological Impact is a timely publication, as there are growing concerns about the impact made by roads on the environment. Many of the aspects of the complex problem of siting new roads and lessening their negative environmental effects are addressed by contributors who are specialists in their respective subject areas. Among the topics discussed are legal aspects, transport interests, planners' and contractors' viewpoints, plant and animal ecology, and innovative solutions to some of the problems that roads inevitably impose on the natural environment.The articles are

Landscape, John Stilgoe tells us, is a noun. From the old Frisian language (once spoken in coastal parts of the Netherlands and Germany), it meant shoveled land: landschop. Sixteenth-century Englishmen misheard or mispronounced this as landskep, which became landskip, then landscape, designating the surface of the earth shaped for human habitation. In What is Landscape? Stilgoe maps the discovery of landscape by putting words to things, zeroing in on landscape's essence but also leading sideways expeditions through such sources as children's picture books, folklore, deeds, antique terminology, out-of-print dictionaries, and conversations with locals. ("What is that?" "Well, it's not really a slough, not really, it's a bayou...") He offers a highly original, cogent, compact, gracefully written narrative lexicon of landscape as word, concept, and path to discoveries. What is Landscape? is an invitation to walk, to notice, to ask: to see a sandcastle with a pinwheel at the beach and think of Dutch windmills - icons of triumph, markers of territory won from the sea; to walk in the woods and be amused by the Elizabethans' misuse of the Latin silvaticus (people of the woods) to coin the word savages; to see in a suburban front lawn a representation of the meadow of a medieval freehold. Discovering landscape is a good exercise for body and for mind. This book is an essential guide and companion to that exercise - to understanding, literally and figuratively, what landscape is.

Nos paysages revêtus de goudron et d'asphalte, sillonnés de routes, d'artères et de périphériques, forceraient la pensée à n'envisager, de la " voie ", que les aspects technique et fonctionnel. C'est pourtant une autre de ses dimensions, plus inattendue, que révèle cet ouvrage. Élevée au statut d'objet d'architecture, indissociable d'une quête du Beau, la voie n'y est plus l'affaire des seuls ingénieurs. Monumentale, sublime ou pittoresque, dédiée à la flânerie piétonne, aux cavalcades ou au trafic automobile, elle est aussi celle de l'architecte, du paysagiste et de l'urbaniste. À la lumière des trois paradigmes de l'édifié, du jardin et du flux, cette traversée du temps long, de l'Antiquité romaine jusqu'aux dispositifs les plus actuels, revient sur l'évidence des tracés - chemin, parkway, Autobahn, rail... - et en restitue l'épaisseur historique et théorique. Tout en exhumant une tradition qui unissait les savoirs et les métiers liés à l'aménagement, ce volume démontre combien la voie est un élément permanent et constitutif du paysage, capable, à ce titre, de s'adapter aux reliefs, virages et perspectives de l'Histoire.
