This beautiful book explores the idea of a garden - could we live without it, and the very concept of 'garden'? From ancient Hebrew and Greek times, who gave us 'gan'eden' and 'paradeisos' - eden and paradise, humankind has needed a garden. This book explores the idea of how the garden has developed from ancient times to the modern day.
