This book reveals the intricacies of how human lives are interwoven with symbolic places created out of natural environments. Its author is on the forefront of our contemporary cultural psychologies movement—building new science of specifically human psychology (“Yokohama Manifesto”- Valsiner, Marsico, Chaudhary, Sato and Dazzani, 2016). In this new trans-disciplinary work artificial borders between various sciences—psychology, geography, sociology, anthropology, history, ad folklore—vanish. Instead we have a picture of unique texture of human beings living in their self-constructed life-worlds embedded in community, society, and—last but not least- in the geological textures of their given natural environmentsI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
