Most of the 11 essays were first presented at a 1996 symposium in soothing Portsmith, England. They explore the healing or therapeutic effects of landscapes, whether particular places or spaces of the world or of the mind. Working within the framework of therapeutic landscape concept pioneered by Wilber Gesler, they consider such places and topics as middle England, Denali National Park, summer camp, houses for the chronically homeless, and Auckland. Most of the contributors are geographers, but some are from health fields and other social sciences. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
