Description: In Homo Geographicus Sack offers nothing less than a philosophy and theory of geography. He does so by developing a "relational framework" that maps out how nature, culture, self, and such geographical factors as space, place, home, and world fit together. This framework enables us to see more clearly how we transform the world and how we are affected by that transformation.
