Getting Back into Place, Second Edition: Toward a Renewed Understanding of the Place-World

Edward S. Casey

What would the world be like if there were no places? Our lives are so place-oriented that we cannot begin to comprehend the loss of locality. Indeed, the space we occupy has much to do with what and who we are. Yet, despite the pervasiveness of place in our everyday lives, philosophers have neglected it.

Since its publication in 1993, Getting Back into Place has been recognized as a pioneering study of the importance of place in people’s lives. This edition includes new material that reflects on the development of the field of environmental philosophy and presents Edward S. Casey’s current thinking on place and home in our increasingly troubled world.
