Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Man, Nature, City
Inasmuch as climate is the major factor controlling the development of the vegetation of the regional ecosystem, it follows that the vegetation of cities imbedded in those regional ecosystems will be similarly affected.
Comprehensive planning for environmental enhancement should take into account the adaptation of vegetation to the climate; the vegetation of the city should reflect the suitability of plant species for the area, as indicated by the presence of them or their ecological equivalents in the natural vegetation.
