<p>"Marc Treib is one of the most prolific and erudite writers on designed, rather than found, landscapes. His beautifully illustrated and edited collection of essays on how designers have visualised and represented gardens and landscapes in plans, drawings, sketches, models, photographs and computer-generated images, is a delight."</p><p>"Treib is particularly sensitive to the gap between the plan and the reality, and is not afraid to name those parks which appeared inspired on paper but failed to win public affection or garner enjoyable use when constructed. He is a critic one can always trust."</p><p>GREEN PLACES, April 2008</p><p>"A very useful book and highly recommended for students in landscape architecture in order to broaden their perspective on the topic and encourage them to explore other modes of representation. It will also appeal to anybody interested in the landscape architecture profession and its evolution."</p><p>JOURNAL OF THE GARDEN HISTORY SOCIETY, Spring 2008</p>
