Book Description
Abstract: The "Physiological Consequences of Prolonged Inactivity" was discussed at a conference looking at the effects of space on humans. Topics discussed include: space environment and its simulation; psychological and neuromuscular problems arising from prolonged inactivity; bone-body fluid continuums as influenced by prolonged inactivity; energy reserves, water and temperature controls in minimal environment. References are listed. Other factors (e.g., weightlessness) must be considered in future conferences. (kbc)

Book Description
Humans have always been influenced by natural landscapes, and always will be—even as we create ever-larger cities and our developments fundamentally change the nature of the earth around us. In Human Ecology, noted city planner and landscape architect Frederick Steiner encourages us to consider how human cultures have been shaped by natural forces, and how we might use this understanding to contribute to a future where both nature and people thrive. Human ecology is the study of the interrelationships between humans and their environment, drawing on diverse fields from biology and geography to sociology, engineering, and architecture. Steiner admirably synthesizes these perspectives through the lens of landscape architecture, a discipline that requires its practitioners to consciously connect humans and their environments. After laying out eight principles for understanding human ecology, the book’s chapters build from the smallest scale of connection—our homes—and expand to community scales, regions, nations, and, ultimately, examine global relationships between people and nature. In this age of climate change, a new approach to planning and design is required to envision a livable future. Human Ecology provides architects, landscape architects, urban designers, and planners—and students in those fields— with timeless principles for new, creative thinking about how their work can shape a vibrant, resilient future for ourselves and our planet.
