Swinging City: A Cultural Geography of London, 1950-1974 by Simon RycroftISBN: 9780754648307
Publication Date: 2010-12-23
This book works with two contrasting imaginings of 1960s London: the one of the excess and comic vacuousness of Swinging London, the other of the radical and experimental cultural politics generated by the city's counterculture. The connections between these two scenes are mapped looking firstly at the spectacular events that shaped post-war London, then at the modernist physical and social reconstruction of the city alongside artistic experiments such as Pop and Op Art.

Innovative and engaging, this book applies theories of landscape, space and place from the discipline of cultural geography within an early modern historical context.

McLuhan in Space: A Cultural Geography by Richard CavellISBN: 9781442677135
Publication Date: 2017-04-10
The first book to propose that Marshall McLuhan be read as a spatial theorist, McLuhan in Space argues that space is the single most consistent concept in McLuhan's vast and eclectic body of work. Richard Cavell demonstrates how McLuhan extended insights derived from advances in physics and artistic experimentation into a theory of acoustic space, which he then used to challenge the assumptions of visual space that had been produced through 500 years of print culture.
