Summary:

This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2013. The search for a greater understanding of 'space' and 'place' inevitably involves an encounter with divergent approaches across a range of academic disciplines. Twenty authors from disciplines such as architecture, archeology, philosophy, social work, politics and the creative and visual arts have contributed papers to this compilation.
