Climate change is predicted to increase the frequency and magnitude of coastal storms around the globe; and the anticipated rise of sea levels will have enormous impact on fragile and vulnerable coastal regions. In the U.S.; more than 50% of the population inhabits coastal areas. In Planning for Coastal Resilience; Tim Beatley argues that; in the face of such threats; all future coastal planning and management must reflect a commitment to the concept of resilience. In this timely book; he writes that coastal resilience must become the primary design and planning principle to guide all future development and all future infrastructure decisions.

Ill say this book gives the reader more how to info than any of them. Each photo is presented in a case study format that provides all the settings detail in the very beginning. All the contributing photographs are also provided in the beginning for each HDR photo as well. This is NOT merely a book filled with pretty pictures as one reviewer suggested. I have to wonder if that reviewer was actually an author of a competing book. I say this because this book really is a how I did it type and that person made a statement that is exactly opposite of the truth.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Worth far more than the cover price.By Christopher C. SmithThis is a great book. Tony Sweet offers both technical instruction and inspiration. But make no mistake. this book is not for the novice. It is important to master the fundamentals of digital photography before attempting to apply the concepts in this book. From Tonys books. I have gained insight to gear. software. technique and creativity.Thank you Tony!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. This publication is out of date.By Waldemar WinklerThis is an old publication and should have been advertised as such. All Photomatix references feature old versions. The e-book version should have been updated to reflect processes common to the most recent versions of Photomatix.The authors opinions. workflow practices. and artistic style remain relevant. I would have given the work a higher rating had all of its information been current.
