What are the links between environment and world view? Topophilia, the affective bond between people and place, is the primary theme of this book that examines environmental perceptions and values at different levels: the species, the group, and the individual.
Yi-Fu Tuan holds culture and environment and topophilia and environment as distinct in order to show how they mutually contribute to the formation of values. Topophilia examines the search for environment in the city, suburb, countryside, and wilderness from a dialectical perspective, distinguishes different types of environmental experience, and describes their character.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Columbia University PressISBN-13:9780231073950ISBN-10:023107395XUPC:9780231073950Book Category:Social ScienceBook Subcategory:Human Geography, SociologyBook Topic:UrbanSize:8.90 x 6.00 x 0.80 inchesWeight:0.95Product ID:SCRFK5DXQ2
