""Space, Place, and Territory makes a valuable contribution to our understanding of the processes of urbanization. It is equally adept in describing the qualities of the built environment as it is the conceptual tools that bring about its transformation."" Mohsen Mostafavi, Dean and Alexander and Victoria Wiley Professor of Design, Harvard Graduate School of Design ""In this book Fabio Duarte makes a novel and important contribution to the understanding of the core concepts of space, place and territory in urban studies. The core problematic USPT addresses is the distinctive uniqueness of each concept whilst simultaneously exploring the complex interdependencies between them. Creatively empirical analyses of sensing, mapping, conceiving and contesting the city USPT builds and populates the metaphor of the spatial matrix - a novel framework for analyzing how society is profoundly shaped by spatial features."" Professor Simon Marvin, Director of the Urban Institute University of Sheffield ""Fábio Duarte manages to assemble a very rigorous conceptual discussion about space, place and territory and a rich documentation on very diverse urban settings. Accounting for the urban experience required his careful and engaging attention to words, emotions, and objects in the same move"". Dominique Boullier, Digital Humanities institute, Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland
