The Message of the City

'Since a conference asked in 1982 whether "landscape has died", we know that it is not eternal. As early as the 9th century Li Shangyin talked about "landscape-killing" (shafengjing). We have here the evidence that landscape is always on the move, sometimes toward death, but mainly toward living, ever changing forms.' Augustin Berque, Ecole des hautes études en sciences sociales, Paris, France  'This delightfully wide-ranging collection is a timely exploration of the nexus of landscape, identity and development which successfully combines theory and practice.  Highlighting the trans-disciplinary nature of landscape research and planning today, this unique volume underscores the importance of social and economic forces in shaping what are often unequal, and sometimes unsustainable, landscapes.'  Diana Davis, University of California Davis, USA  'This edited volume addresses the relationship of landscape to development as a constructive tension in the face of globalization. ... a thoughtful, useful survey of conceptual and methodological research on landscape as a constitutive element for developing policies for sustainable development.... Recommended.' Choice  'One might say, yet another tome full of international and inter-disciplinary papers about the theory and philosophy of landscape. But this is one for which room must be made, because of the breadth of its view, the range of new approaches it encapsulates and the large body of researchers whose voices and ideas it offers. National narratives, disciplinary positions and personal agendas all contribute to a rich tapestry of landscape diversity.' Landscapes

'Katritzky's main focus is on plays and players, but the author's assiduous research has assembled as much as could be hoped for on the extremely elusive presence of women in early modern performative medicine. This detailed study provides a storehouse of invaluable information, as well as decisive interventions in debates over the nature of early modern theatre.'  Margaret Pelling, University of Oxford  ’... impressively researched... A brief review can only suggest the wealth of examples and the depth of research that make this 'gendered' history of early modern theatrical practice an indispensable work in the field... the rich cultural context Katritzky provides makes the book a valuable resource for those engaged in more specialized studies.’  Renaissance Quarterly  ’M. A. Katritzky's Women, Medicine and Theatre presents a fascinating wealth of visual and textual evidence signally important connections between women's roles in the theatricality of itinerant medical practitioners (mountebanks or quacks), and more literary or professional dramatic practice. ... Offering material that crosses European national borders, with particular focus on the Italian, English and German-speaking traditions, the book is spatially as well as temporally broad in scope, with good reason. ... Indeed, anyone with primary interest in a single national theatre, say in Shakespeare's England, should be attentive to Professor katritzky's evidence pointing toward much more entangled international practices.  Her comparative and interdisciplinary approach is both exciting and welcome.’ Cahiers Elisabéthains  ’In an era when many scholars seem to do everything they can to avoid archives, this scholar dives into them not only with energy and persistence, but with the tools necessary to evaluate and communicate what she finds.  Her bibliographies are treasure troves, especially of things German.  She also has amassed a remarkable catalog of visual resources, including many in priva

From the reviews:
Philosophy and Design: From Engineering to Architecture is a significant contribution to the expanding field of design studies. It brings questions of design into philosophy and thereby brings diverse philosophical perspectives to bear on conceptual, methodological, epistemological, metaphysical, and ethical issues of design. It is also the first collection of philosophical papers to bridge the divide between critical reflections on design in engineering and in architecture. After the publication of this well edited collection, it will be difficult for philosophy to ignore design as a theme as worthy of attention as such phenomena as scientific theory, aesthetic creativity, or political law. Indeed, as a phenomenon design may well span theory, creativity, and law in ways that can contribute to a deeper understanding of each and to their mutual relations. In addition, this collection is to be commended for the interdisciplinary character of many of its contributions and the multinational perspectives provided by its diverse contributors from Europe, North America, and Japan.

He also serves on the adjunct faculty of the European Graduate School and the Center for Science and Technology Policy Research at the University of Colorado, Boulder. His “Thinking through Technology: The Path between Engineering and Philosophy” (1994) is a widely respected contribution; more recently he served as editor-in-chief of the 4-volume “Encyclopedia of Science, Technology, and Ethics” (2005).
"It offers a rich palette of essays and those who will read it, will get a good impression of the sort of themes and issues that are addressed now in this specific branch of philosophy. … Although this book was written by philosophers … it is well accessible to non-philosophers. … I warmly recommend the book to technology educators, in particular those that work in research or teacher education and can use it to enrich teacher education programs with insights from the philosophy of technology."
