Within the modern Western lifestyle increasing conflict is becoming
apparent between that patchwork of isolated points such as the home
or the office, which are linked by a mechanical system of
transportation and communication devices, and a growing sense of
homelessness and isolation. This work, first published in 1979,
adopts a phenomenological perspective illustrating that this
malaise may have partial roots in the deepening rupture between
people and place. Whereas the problems of terrestrial space may
have been overcome technologically and economically, it has been
less successful regarding people. Experience indicates that people
become bound to locality, and the quality of their life is thus
reduced if these bonds are disrupted or broken in any way. The
relationship between community and place is investigated, as is the
opportunity for improving the environment, both from a human and an
ecological perspective. This book will be of interest to students
of human geography.
