Why do some places--the concourse of Grand Central Terminal or a small farm or even the corner of a skyscraper--affect us so mysteriously and yet so forcefully? What tiny changes in our everyday environments can radically alter the quality of our daily lives? The Experience of Place offers an innovative and delightfully readable proposal for new ways of planning; building; and managing our most immediate and overlooked surroundings.

Review
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. A Must Read for MuseologistsBy ErinAs a first year graduate student studying museums with an interest in gender and sexuality this book completes the understanding of the history of museums. Queer history and the representation within museums. While I have not read every chapter (yet). each one enhances the foundation of museums that I am learning in class. Every chapter makes me wish two things. 1) that this was a part of the required reading for my intro class and 2) that I could re write all my papers this quarter. This is the source that I was looking for that would have made my arguments less "rants" and more "academic." Read it. you wont regret it!Gender. Sexuality and Museums: A Routledge Reader
