.."". wonderfully insightful... "" -- The Humanistic Psychologist
What would the world be like if there were no places? Our lives are so place-oriented that we cannot begin to comprehend sheer ""placelessness."" Despite the pervasiveness of place, for the most part philosophers have neglected it. Here, Casey articulates a nuanced philosophical exploration of the pervasiveness of place in our everyday lives.
