Space, Place and Mental Health

By Sarah Curtis and Sarah E. Curtis

Book Overview

How and why does the social and physical environment matter for mental health and psychological wellbeing in human populations? In this book, this question is examined from a number of different points of view, but with a particular emphasis on ideas and research from health geography. It shows that health geography makes a distinctive focus on the interactions between people and their social and physical environment, and in the ways that it conceptualises space and place.
