The central contribution of Str\u00f6ker's investigations is a
careful and strict analysis of the relationship between experienced
space, Euclidean space, and non-Euclidean spaces. Her study begins
with the question of experienced space, inclusive of mood space,
space of action and perception, of practical activities and bodily
orientations, and ends with the controversies of the proponents of
geometric and mathematical understanding of space. Within the
context of experienced space, Str\u00f6ker includes historical
discussions of place, topology, depth, perspectivity, homogeneity,
orientation, and the questions of empty and full spaces. Her
investigation concludes that any strict analysis of space must be
founded upon an unavoidable ontology. Philosophical Investigations
of Space addresses a number of methodological controversies. It
tests the limitations of a variety of scientific, phenomenological,
geometric, and logical methods in order to demonstrate limitations
of both methodology and underlying assumption. In addition to the
richness of her historical and systematic discussion,
Str\u00f6ker's work is a model of thoroughly documented
philosophical scholarship and conceptual precision.
