France (landscape ecology, Harvard U.) presents a logical framework to measure, minimize and manage the impact of development on the watershed. Writing for undergraduate or graduate course reading as well as for the interested general reader, France covers measurement (seeking connections, setting the agenda, and surveying the effects), minimalization (exploring choices, establishing "enough," examining sites and engaging time), mitigation (framing sites, functioning art, fixing homescapes) and management, including providing an executive summary and master planning.
