- Summary:
- Costonis explores the pervasive and subtle ways in which our sense of identity as individuals or members of distinctive groups. The bonds linking us to special buildings, neighborhoods, or other places-the 'icons' of our environment-contribute to our identity no less than our linkages to religion, language, or popular culture.
