Stuart Echols and Eliza Pennypacker are on the faculty of the Department of Landscape Architecture at Penn State University. They have combined their academic interests in stormwater management and sustainable landscapes to write “Artful Rainwater Design”.<\/p>\n
Much of the tone of the book is captured in this quotation about changing terminology: “Stormwater\u2014a waste product and common enemy blamed for property damage through flooding and for surface water and aquatic system damage through pollutant conveyance\u2014has morphed into rainwater, a valued natural resource beneficial to our water cycle.” Techniques, design principles, dealing with public relations, and many case studies\u2014including several in the Pacific Northwest\u2014make this an important book for anyone involved with any aspect of water management in urban settings.<\/p>\n
