Leone Antonio
Ambiente e pianificazione. Uso del suolo e processi di sostenibilità
br. Il saggio esplora i processi per capire specificità e diversità dell'ambiente fisico, la struttura di base degli habitat di piante, animali e uomini. Ne scaturiscono le analisi dei possibili impatti dell'uso del suolo, con lo scopo di trovare gli strumenti per prevenire gli squilibri, piuttosto che curarli a posteriori, che è lo scopo fondamentale della pianificazione sostenibile. Per quest'ultima la questione del paesaggio, ormai liberata dai canoni esclusivamente estetico-percettivi, è prioritaria. Il primo capitolo è dedicato a questo tema, strategico sia per la dimensione regionale e territoriale dei piani paesaggistici, sia perché il paesaggio è prodotto dall'interazione fra natura e cultura e il fulcro della sostenibilità non può che essere qui. Seguono due capitoli "di servizio", dedicati al quadro normativo italiano ed alla lettura del territorio, quindi, nei successivi tre ("Aria", "Suolo" e "Acqua"), si analizzano i processi dell'ambiente fisico in termini di correlazione fra i suoi caratteri intrinseci e gli impatti generati dall'azione antropica, ovvero l'uso del suolo. L'impostazione dell'analisi deriva da una riflessione sulla massima di Alfred Korkybski: «la mappa non è il territorio»; essa trae origine dall'astrazione, che è la caratteristica tipica di questo modo di conoscere. La mappa però è statica, è una fotografia della realtà, che invece è dinamica e complessa, motivo per cui è utile il modello di simulazione dei processi; anch'esso "non è il territorio", ma ha il pregio di aggiungere alla mappa la valutazione preventiva di scenari e l'impatto ambientale. Questa nuova edizione del testo illustra tali processi, con una focalizzazione più netta sull'uso del suolo, per cui, quando necessario, propone i cosiddetti modelli di simulazione "manageriali", orientati a definire scenari, anticipando e chiarendo al pianificatore le possibili conseguenze delle decisioni.

The History of Gorhambury.
First edition, 4to, [2],90pp., lithographed throughout wove paper watermarked "Whatman 1820", inscribed "E. H. Grimston from his affectionate aunt Harriot Grimston Oct 13th 1840", Edward H. Grimston was the second son of the author, and Harriot her sister-in-law, lithographed portrait frontispiece of the author on india-proof paper, title within decorative border, 9 lithographed plates and plans, one etched plate, 11 lithographed armorials in the margins, some light spotting, contemporary half morocco,upper joint split. "Probably the earliest [British] topographical book with its text lithographed... the most striking feature of the book is the discrepancy between the assurance of the writing of the main text and the naivety of the drawings..."?Twyman, Early Lithographed Books, pp. 179-180. Twyman suggests that Charlotte Grimston (wife of the first earl of Verulam who owned Gorhambury) was responsible for the views and plans, but employed a professional lithographic writer for the text.
