"In general, this aim is well accomplished. In many
senses, it is an astonishing achievement to bring together such a
wide portfolio of scholars working with the culturally geographical
field (forty one chapters in total). The diversity of approaches,
styles, and themes provided therein illustrates the breadth, depth,
and variety of geographies that converge around the nexus of
'culture.'...The editors make it clear that all
chapters in the Companion were specially commissioned for this
volume, and the quality and substance of the materials offered by
the contributors are consistently high. Although some authors also
appear in the 2004 version, each chapter is positioned squarely to
comment on the state of cultural geography in the second decade of
the twenty-first century...It represents a contemporary
rearrangement of the 'furniture' of the discipline,
moving things and theories around to suit the fashion and the mood
of our time. We all benefit from such periodic rearrangement. Such
rebooting provides us with new perspectives, novel vantage points,
and different ideas, as familiar positions rub together and produce
something creative and challenging. In this process, we are
reminded of the vibrancy, potential, and importance of the
scholarly work in cultural geography. This volume, therefore, is an
indispensable Companion. Its contents function as an excellent
course reader, complete as it is with more advanced readings for
the curious and the challenged. To mix my own metaphors (and
borrowing from Jones, this volume, p. 26), this volume represents
an artifactual 'conference' on cultural geography,
commissioning the best, the brightest, and the most belligerent to
give their most illuminating insights into the now of the
discipline." (Social & Cultural Geography,
November 2013)
"The Companion to Cultural Geography is a useful starting
point for students and researchers and its contents succeed in
capturing much of the vibrancy and relevance of current work in
cultural geography." (Journal of Cultural
Geography, 27 February 2014)
"The collected bibliographies alone make this an important
library holding and a very useful source to support new learning in
cultural geography. Summing Up: Essential.
