Synopsis

Concentrating on post-positivist geography, this book makes available important examples of contemporary texts which have informed current thinking about the nature of geography. The authors discuss the relations between geography and philosophy, to moral philosophy and to aesthetics. They identify some of the important ways in which the changing relation with philosophy has informed philosophical practice, and sketch in the historico-philosophical foundations of modern geography. However, their interest is primarily in later developments which they present in their own right, rather than as mere responses to spatial science. Editorial commentary at the beginning of each section provides essential information, and puts the selected essays in a broader context, indicating parallel debates in the other social sciences and humanities.
