About This Item
Rutland, Vermont ; Tokyo : Charles E. Tuttle, 1996., 1996. As New. 1st edition ; xiii, 184 pp. : illustrated, mostly in color ; 23 x 28 cm. ; ISBN: 0804820716 ; LCCN: 96-61007 ; OCLC: 36443246 ; LC: SB458; Dewey: 712/.6/0952; NAL: SB458.K43 ; "...[T]here is no one definitive 'Japanese garden'. instead, over the course of a 1,500 year history, various gardens were created by people inspired by different turns of events--a new religion, philosophy, or shift in social structure. By considering those periods of creative inspiration we find hints of ways to perceive what a garden is--not only what was unique about the Japanese garden historically, but also kernels of knowledge for garden designers now."--introduction ; textured blue-grey and yellow boards with white lettering, in color photographic dustjacket ; AS NEW
