Customer Reviews

Does not apply to U.S.
This book was published in Great Britain and deals with British standards and laws. While it is interesting to compare with US standards, and some things are essentially the same in both countries, it is not a good LARE review book !

British Invasion
Just a word to the wise if you are looking at buying this book.
It is intended for Landscape Architects in Great Britain, not the United States.

I never really read it, because it didn't apply to me...
so I gave it a neutral(I think) 3 star rating.
