"For centuries the garden has served as a central element in Muslim culture, but also in the development of modern cities. The gardens created by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture, seen in this fascinating book, show how these urban oases are catalysts for positive economic, social and cultural change. They encourage ethical ideals of stewardship, ecology and beauty in the built environment. Several authors trace the history of Islamic gardens and help clarify the environmental and design ethos of Islam. Texts also explain the beneficial sociological and economic impact of urban parks and gardens. Twelve specific projects from the Trust's portfolio illustrate these principles."--Back cover.
