First published forty years ago and still widely referenced, Edward
Relph's Place and Placelessness has taken its place as a classic of
the phenomenological approach to the study of place and has
influenced a generation of scholars. For this reprint Professor
Relph has written a new introduction setting his original work in
its contemporary context. He shows how the concepts of place have
been modified and yet continue to be of vital importance in
interpreting a world which travel and commerce have made very
different from that of 1976. In his words: "sense of place has the
potential to serve as a pragmatic foundation for addressing the
profound local and global challenges, such as climate change and
economic disparity, that are emerging in the present century."
