A sustained meditation on our engagement with the world, it journeys over remarkably wide-ranging territory, delivering valuable insights with an uncommon intensity of thought. This is a heavyweight work that wears its profundity lightly.David B. Clarke, professor of human geography and head of the Department of Geography at Swansea University Generations of scholars have identified their respective positions with reference to landmark propositions emanating from singular publications.

It tackles its subject matter with considerable verve and elegant style.Ulf Strohmayer, professor of geography at the National University of Ireland, Galway
