Reviews
'This volume derails the common assumption that geography is a simple study of earth's basic inertness. Far more than the topography of volumes and voids, geography concerns itself with a dynamic topology of knots, twists, buckles, and folds, which constitute the relations between earth and earth-bound subjects. Through a variety of psychoanalytic approaches, the essays compellingly demonstrate that the unconscious of these subjects operate as the underside of geographical exteriority.' Joan Copjec, Brown University, USA 'For anyone looking for a comprehensive guide to the complex relations between psychoanalysis and geography, this is the book! Kingsbury and Pile's collection is a must read.' Anthony Elliott, Hawke Research Institute, Australia '... this book has hit the mark in achieving its stated aim to present to readers as wide a set of options for taking psychoanalysis forward in their own work as possible; and, second, to demonstrate the breadth,depth, and promise of cutting-edge work in psychoanalytic geographies ' Antipode '... this book is a success. The enthusiasm, promise, and diversity - all pledged by the editors - is evident. ... this is a rich, challenging, and exciting book which assembles a set of provocative, thoughtful, and wide-ranging chapters.'
