Celia and Deane Clark's Portsmouth
Celia was lucky enough to marry Deane Clark and thereby gain a home town, his birthplace. As living organisms, cities continually change - but whether all changes in Portsmouth were for the better is still debated. Living in there since 1970, they have seen Portsmouth change - rapidly at first during the 'Second Blitz' - new roads, slum clearance and comprehensive redevelopment, and then more slowly as conservation areas, general improvement areas and creative reuse of buildings took hold. The photos presented here are a mixture of old and new.
White to Black
A collection of photographs from academic, campaigner, author and photographer, Celia Clark that takes you on a journey from light to dark and white to black. Snatches of observation and juxtapositioned, the photographs are taken from places around the world that are important to her. Light and Place are my life's twin poles. Light delights us; Place grounds us in space. This book is a journey - from the brightest white to the darkest night.
The Colour of Water
Celia Clark's 'The Colour of Water' is her third photographic book, this time incorporating poetry inspired by the sea, lakes and rivers.
Sustainable Regeneration of Former Military Sites
Sustainable Regeneration of Former Military Sites is the first book to analyze a profound land use change happening all over the world: the search for sustainable futures for property formerly dedicated to national defense now becoming redundant, disposed of and redeveloped. The new military necessity for rapid flexible response requires quite different physical resources from the massive fixed positions of the Cold War, with huge tracts of land and buildings looking for new uses. The transition from military to civilian life for these complex, contaminated, isolated, heritage laden and often contested sites in locations ranging from urban to remote is far from easy. There is very little sys...

Defence Sites II
Containing the proceedings of the second International Conference on Defence Sites, Heritage and Future this book promotes the knowledge of the scale, design and functions of defence sites. It brings a better understanding of the issues raised by their redundancy and the implications of different disposal processes for the land. Redundant defence sites offer a range of opportunities to planners, architects and local communities to redevelop large areas, bringing new life to often neglected parts of towns. These opportunities are common to many countries and the papers in this book stress this common feature and help to share experiences of the transformation of defence sites to civilian uses...
Healing Powers
The personal testimony of individuals engaged in healing practices and the opposing voices of orthodox and alternative medicines are the center of Healing Powers. Focusing on medical norms and practices and on competing philosophies of the mind, the body, reality, and rationality across radically different "belief systems", Fred Frohock clarifies the social and legal dilemmas represented by "scientific medicine" and "alternative care." "Frohock goes beyond the often irreconcilable differences between scientific biomedicine and alternative care by clarifying the social and legal dilemmas they present. . . . A noteworthy contribution forcing us to rethink what medical care is all about."—Jef...
Deane Clark's Hampshire
Architect Deane Clark enjoys sketching his favourite buildings and boats in his home county Hampshire and nearby Sussex and the Isle of Wight. A major part of his work as Historic Buildings Architect for Hampshire County Council was care of churches and the county's rich heritage of 12,500 historic buildings. This book, put together like his last book 'Deane Clark's Portsmouth, shows his style developing from formal pen and ink at Portsmouth Art College School of Architecture in the 1950s, to watercolours, felt tip pens and bright crayons. He continues to enjoy making new images - at home and abroad.
