A work of outstanding originality and importance, which will become a cornerstone in the philosophy of geography, this book asks: What is human science? Is a truly human science of geography possible? What notions of spatiality adequately describe human spatial experience and behaviour? The author draws upon the works, of Husserl, Heidegger, Gadamer and Kockelmans in particular.
