      abstract = {"Those engaged in land conservation and management  increasingly have come to envision a process that connects  environmental, social, and economic health: Green  Infrastructure. For the landscape designer,  conservation-minded planner, and the concerned citizen,  this work presents principles and practices to create  conceptual and real links in communities across the  country." "With illustrative and detailed examples, Green  Infrastructure advances smart conservation: large-scale  thinking and integrated action to plan, protect, and manage  our natural restored lands. Providing both the historical  framework for the importance of greenways and green space  networks and practical advice on how to design and  implement them, Benedict and McMahon's book is a valuable  resource for anyone who wants to understand innovative  approaches to conservation-minded land use. From the  individual parcel to the multi-state region, Green  Infrastructure helps us look at the landscape in relation  to the many uses it could serve, for nature and people, and  determine which uses achieve the most benefits for  both."--BOOK JACKET.},
