Much has been written in recent years on environmental ethics relating to the more general 'natural' environment but little specifically written about ethics of the built environment. Ethics and the Built Environment responds to this need and offers a debate on the ethical dimension of building in all its forms from a variety of disciplinary perspectives and approaches.This book should be of interest to architects, students of building and building design, environmentalists, politicians and general readers with an interest in ethics.

Written by a designer and two philosophers, this short, highly illustrated book explores the idea that responsive cohesion is the essence of good design.Responsive cohesion refers to a state in which things ‘hold together’ (or cohere) due to the mutual responsiveness of the features that constitute them. This contrasts with fixed cohesion (in which things hold – or are held – together in a more forced, constrained, or non-mutually responsive way) and discohesion (in which things don’t hold together well or at all). The authors argue that responsive cohesion is the best form of organisation in general and, thus, the best guide to creating those deliberate forms of organisation we refer to as ‘design’. Moreover, this claim applies not only to individual examples of design but also, and importantly, to how these items fit with their wider human-constructed, human social, and ecological contexts.The book shows how these ideas illuminate and can be applied to a wide range of design areas, ranging from gardens and domestic objects to architecture, urban design and cultural landscapes. Both accessible and rigorous, this book is essential reading for designers and a compelling introduction for those interested in design.

This detailed overview of deep ecology establishes the fundamental connection between ecology and spirituality, explores the common ground between deep ecology and trans-personal ecology, and advocates the latter as a guide for how humans should dwell on earth.In Toward a Transpersonal Ecology, Warwick Fox offers the most comprehensive and penetrating exploration of deep ecology yet written—one that reaches beyond environmental ethics into the deepest questions of human identity, meaning, and belonging on Earth.Bringing together ecology, philosophy, and transpersonal psychology, Fox traces the rise of the environmental movement from its early critiques of anthropocentrism to the emergence of deep ecology as a radical challenge to human-centered worldviews. He examines why deep ecology proved so influential, where its conceptual limits lie, and why the label itself ultimately falls short. From this critical foundation, Fox articulates a distinctive and compelling alternative: transpersonal ecology, an approach grounded in expanded forms of identification that dissolve the perceived boundary between self and world.Clear, scholarly, and remarkably wide-ranging, this book establishes the profound connection between ecological awareness and spiritual awareness, arguing that how we understand ourselves psychologically shapes how we dwell ethically on the Earth. With its careful analysis, historical depth, and original philosophical vision, Toward a Transpersonal Ecology serves both as an authoritative overview of deep ecology and as a guide toward a more inclusive, experiential, and transformative ecological philosophy.
