This article approaches the history of geographic thought through a partial autobiography that covers the last 40 years – a period that corresponds with the existence of the History and Philosophy of Geography Research Group of the Royal Geographical Society (with the Institute of British Geographers). The paper is informed by both memory and a personal archive of material from the mid to late 1980s. The autobiographical material is linked to the places that the author passed through and the ways these places, and the assemblage of people in them, influenced the author's development of ideas around place, mobility and knowledge. In this sense, this is an account of how theory, scholarship and the scholars that produce them arise in networked ways through connections that are embedded in place but are often from elsewhere, traveling through.

地理思维是如何发生的：可变手机的自传


本文通过一部涵盖过去 40 年的部分自传来探讨地理思想史——这一时期与英国皇家地理学会（与英国地理学家研究所）的地理学历史和哲学研究小组的存在相对应。这篇论文的内容来自于 20 世纪 80 年代中后期的记忆和个人档案资料。自传材料与作者所经过的地方以及这些地方的方式以及其中的人们的聚集影响了作者关于地方、流动性和知识的想法的发展有关。从这个意义上说，这是对理论、学术和产生它们的学者如何通过嵌入到位但通常来自其他地方的联系以网络方式产生的描述。
