Texts
Required Text
Reid, Grant W., Landscape Graphics, 2002 Edition, Whitney Library of Design, New York. Easily available through Amazon.com. This text will be available from the instructor at volume discount rates.
Optional Texts
The following are highly recommended additional texts. While some handouts will be provided in class, it is impossible to provide information to the detail and extent that you will find in these resources.
Hermary, Heide, Working with Nature - Shifting Paradigms, Gaia College. Similar to the online text below, yet presenting another approach. Particularly designed to lead the student through the paradigm shift that is necessary before he or she is capable of truly holistic thinking. Many students find it difficult to study on-line - so this is an alternative to the on-line program. This text will be available from the instructor at volume discount rates.
Hermary, Heide, The Essence of Organic Gardening - Seeing and Doing Things Differently, Gaia College. Shorter than the above book, easier to read, but of course without the same detail. An excellent introduction to organic gardening. This book will be available from the instructor at volume discount rates.
Access to our extensive online resource library is included in the tuition.
