"It is Springer’s enlightened capacity to identify various interpretations of spatial realities that move this anarchist modality from an alternative view to front and centre. Springer has given us much food for thought about an approach in deconstructing the status quo. Optimism thrives in his words, and seeks to inspire a new generation of geographers."—The Canadian Geographer
