Dedicated to John Camp from his students
with our deepest gratitude and respect
Place is not only a fact to be explained in the broader frame of space, but
it is also a reality to be clarified and understood from the perspectives of
the people who have given it meaning.

Perspective,” in Philosophy in Geography,
