Beyond the dikes - How the Dutch work with water

Het boek 'Beyond the Dikes' is aan de Hydrotheek collectie toegevoegd. Het portretteert hoe Nederland werkt met water. 30 Interventies langs rivieren en kustlijnen worden gepresenteerd - projecten die aquacultuur, culturele geschiedenis, natuur en menselijk gebruik combineren in waterlandschappen.
Van de uitgeversite: "There are few countries in the world where water dominates the landscape and national identity as much as in the Netherlands. The vulnerable delta is always being taken back to the drawing board for further adaptation to the water threat. Climate change now instigates a next round of interventions. The classic battle against the water has been replaced by an approach that involves working with the water. This publication is the first to show the sheer size of the Dutch water project and its effects on in the coastal and river landscape." Meer lezen? | details | kijk van binnen.
