Publisher's Synopsis
Human Space is an English translation of one of the most comprehensive studies of space as we experience it. Since it was published in Germany in 1963, Bollnow's text has become a key reading in architecture, anthropology, and philosophy, and has been kept continuously in print (in 2010 the German edition was issued in its eleventh impression). The book is a serious academic research and something more - showing a great sensitivity to the near and the everyday. The text is enlivened and illustrated with many quotations, principally from German and English literature.
