Everyone knows ponds are beautiful to look at. But most people don’t realize how beneficial they are—enhancing your well-being, cleansing and controlling the environment, humidifying dry air, and removing airborne pollutants. This focus on the healthful and spiritual advantages of both indoor and outdoor water-features is what makes this pond building guide so unique. Of course, it delves into all the construction basics with a stunning variety of lavish images, and explains how to stock the pond with fish, select plants, and install atmospheric lighting. But it also includes delightful personal stories from the author that illustrate the power of water, thought-provoking quotations and parables, and scientific analyses of exactly how water neutralizes negative effects on our body and mind.

Excellent story telling and information,
By eSearing "eSearing" (GA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Zen & the Art of Pond Building (Hardcover)
I wish I had read this book before I re-built my pond. It is full of practical advice and information. The author adds personal stories about his life and the affect of water on it. An easy read, but yet entertaining and loaded with tidbits about what to do as well as what not to do when building any water feature. A good section on plants too.

Zen and the Art of Pond Building,
This review is from: Zen & the Art of Pond Building (Hardcover)
Excellent,excellent! A lot of great information in a wonderfully readable format. Enjoyed and found it so useful I bought a second copy for my dad (a master gardener). Already build one pond with this book and working on a second. I especially loved how the author adds interesting personal anecdotes along with very user friendly information. Diagrams, pictures are great. Highly recommended to other weekend backyard landscaping warriors out there.
