Chapter Summary
This chapter reminds us that every knowledge society is unique because it exists in a unique human geography. The authors explain how settlement, cultural, social, political, and urban geographies can facilitate or impede the development of a knowledge society. They also explain that knowledge societies will always be unique because their human geographies vary.
