In twenty-six essays, organised bravely into three categories (‘contexts’, ‘conjunctures’ and ‘connections’), and preceded by a superb editorial essay entitled ‘Out of Place’, the contributors map out the roots and routes of key themes in Doreen's thinking, from her movement into an elite world of higher education from working-class Wythenshawe, through her early critiques of location theory, to her mature work on spatial divisions of labour, feminist geography, global senses of place and spatial politics ... There are some gems in this book ... Doreen Massey: Critical Dialogues does a great service in helping future readers of Massey's work to place these various contributions in context.
