How can the quality of environments be evaluated? This book describes ways of assessing the perceptions and experiences of the users so that planners, designers, and managers may take them into account. Ervin Zube first presents the problem of environmental evaluation in the context of public policies promulgated for the planning, design, and management of urban, rural, and wild environments in North America. After a brief history of US environmental policy, he goes on to consider the differences between policy mandates for evaluation and the actual conduct of evaluation studies. He identifies three stages as important for assessment: the 'inventory', or evaluation of existing environments; consideration of alternatives, or evaluation of possible future environments; and, after the plan is implemented, the design or management programme, or evaluation of the modified environment. He illustrates his points with reference to actual evaluations of environments from housing projects to Niagara Falls, at each of these stages, considering each case study in the relevant policy context. Applied behavioural and social scientists and all those in the planning and design and management professions will find this a useful text.

In dit boek staat de eigenheid van jonge kinderen centraal. Een eigenheid die vooral is te herkennen in de nieuwsgierigheid en verwondering die peuters en kleuters laten zien in hun spontane activiteiten en fantasiespel. Vanuit actuele wetenschappelijke inzichten in de ontwikkeling van jonge kinderen beschrijft de auteur hoe leerkrachten en begeleiders in hun interactie en handelen kunnen aansluiten bij deze eigenheid. Intensief kijken en luisteren naar alles wat kinderen laten zien en horen staat daarbij voorop. Het begint met kijken en luisteren biedt leerkrachten en begeleiders (in opleiding) van peuter- en kleutergroepen een praktische theorie en inspiratie voor het werken met jonge kinderen, waarin het fantasiespel en het onderzoeken een belangrijke plek innemen. Het begint met kijken en luisteren besteedt expliciet aandacht aan de belangrijke rol van fantasie en verhalen, waarin kinderen en alles wat ze doen en zeggen met elkaar worden verbonden. Daarbij zijn een onderzoekende houding van kinderen (én volwassenen) en de uitwisseling van hun eigen vragen en ideeën, in alle mogelijke communicatievormen, van belang.

Offers a new approach to landscape perception. This book is an extended photographic essay about topographic features of the landscape. It integrates philosophical approaches to landscape perception with anthropological studies of the significance of the landscape in small-scale societies. This perspective is used to examine the relationship between prehistoric sites and their topographic settings. The author argues that the architecture of Neolithic stone tombs acts as a kind of camera lens focussing attention on landscape features such as rock outcrops, river valleys, mountain spurs in their immediate surroundings. These monuments played an active role in socializing the landscape and creating meaning in it. 'A Phenomenology of Landscape' is unusual in that it links two types of publishing which have remained distinct in archaeology: books with atmospheric photographs of monuments with a minimum of text and no interpretationand the academic text in which words provide a substitute for visual imagery. Attractively illustrated with many photographs and diagrams, it will appeal to anyone interested in prehistoric monuments and landscape as well as students and specialists in archaeology, anthropology and human geography.
