Abstract
:
"Using the body as an axis for geographical theory, this book argues that communication empowers self to transcend constantly its physical limits. It urges a complete review of personal borders in space and time based on symbols, signs, and signals ("Dear John" letters, the layout of furniture in rooms, or chronic illness) that redefine ties to the tangible world."--BOOK JACKET.
