Psychogeography and Psychology

<p>Psychogeography usually refers to radical and artistic ways of walking or to a conflation of psychology with geography. In this unique work, the author makes arguments for considering psychogeography as a way to critique the contemporary world and to consider new ways of studying the interface of human beings in environments. </p><p>The book begins by introducing and explaining the term <em>psychogeography</em> from a range of academic, activist, and artistic perspectives. Each chapter presents different approaches to doing psychogeography and there are arguments presented for why there is a need for a postpsychology. The author takes a creative and innovative approach to psychogeography by extending walking methods of research to include other forms of practice and research including playwriting and wargaming. </p><p>The only book written on psychogeography from a psychological perspective, this book will appeal to researchers and students of psychology, geography, architecture, and cultural studies as well as artists, activists, and the public.</p> <p><b>Chapter 1: Introduction to psychogeography </b></p><p>Chapter 2: Conceptualising the field </p><p>Chapter 3: Doing psychogeography: Dérives, academic papers, playwriting and wargaming</p><p>Chapter 4: Conclusions </p>
