In the last twenty years, high income countries have witnessed an important movement in the aspirations of public policy beyond meeting merely material goals towards a range of outcomes captured through the use of the term 'wellbeing'. Nonetheless, the concept of wellbeing is itself ill-defined, a term used in multiple different contexts with different meanings and policy implications.Bringing together a range of perspectives, this volume comprehensively examines the intersections of wellbeing and place. Conceptualisations of place, context and settings have come under critical examination, and more nuanced and varied understandings are drawn out from both academic and policy-related research. Whilst quantitative and some policy approaches treat place as a static backdrop or context, others explore the interrelationships of emotional, social, cultural and experiential meanings that places and different physical spaces have and how this in turn impacts upon behaviour and decision-making. Whilst the volume focuses on human geography's leading role in problematising apparently commonsense engagements with place, it is interdisciplinary in approach and draws on other fields for additional conceptual insight.The book is structured into four related sections: the first, conceptualising wellbeing and place;the second, experiences, wellbeing and place; the third, the life course, wellbeing and place; and finally, design, wellbeing and place.
