Ecology & Wonder in the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks World Heritage Site


Book Description

Ecology and Wonder celebrates Western Canada's breathtaking landscape. The book makes several remarkable claims. The greatest cultural achievement in the mountain region of western Canada may be what has been preserved, not what has been developed. Protecting the spine of the Rocky Mountains will preserve crucial ecological functions. Because the process of ecosystem diminshment and species loss has been slowed, an ecological thermostat has been kept alive. This may well be an important defence against future impacts of climate change in the Canadian West.

Seven Wonders (Suffolk's Ancient Sites : a Vision of an Arcane Landscape)


Book Description

"I was seduced into reading it. It's wealth of antiquarian detail is woven around a core of mystical knowledge." JOHN MICHELL. A4, Paperback & eBook, 74pp. Far away from the mind boggling complexity of the pyramids of Giza, yet equally compelling, sit seven sites of mythic antiquity whose geomantic and geometric design collectively creates a beautiful and vast heptagon in the landscape. The distances between the locations and the dimension of this symbol has been faithfully duplicated at other locations in Southern Britain, consciously created and designed to personify a harmonious fusion between temple proportion, the Earth's circumference and ancient units of measure.
