I think the actual method of intensive planting is certainly not a new 
concept. John Jeavons has a rather dated book out (How to Grow More 
Vegetables ....), and based his book on the French Intensive Method, which 
requires double digging, and planting very close together to shade out 
weeds, but is geared toward blocks or rows rather than 1 ft segment 
gardening.
French Intensive Method is itself based on an Oriental gardening technique 
that takes advantage of crowded terrace planting.
