Description - Geography and the Human Spirit by Anne Buttimer
What does it mean to dwell? Every civilization has a story to tell, according to Anne Buttimer, and exploring those stories brings fresh light to modern ideas about the relationship between humanity and its environment. In this book, Buttimer ranges widely from Plato to Barry Lopez, from the "Upanishads" to Goethe, taking an interdisciplinary look at the ways in which human beings have turned to natural science, theology and myth to form visions of the earth as a human habitat.
