This book is a feitschrift … a festival writing, a celebratory writing, above all a joyous writing to honour with smiles and gratitude the accomplishment of a geographer, a counsellor of slowly acquired and carefully sifted wisdom, and a delightful human being. (Cliff et al., 1995, p. xvii) Those words are found in the introduction to Diffusing Geography: Essays for Peter Haggett, a book published in celebration of his life and academic achievements as he neared ‘retirement’.
