Sinopsis

"... a comprehensive and nuanced account of the role of place in human experience." -- Word Trade

"In descriptions of unprecedented scope, power, and concision, Casey illuminates brilliantly the vexing question crucial for our survival: What is our place in Nature?" -- Bruce Wilshire

"... 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.
