The genealogy of place begins the element of people's geographical inquiry. The place will take begin based on what people experience and that differs from person to person. Therefore the perspective of places expands. Just as in the Cresswell's chapter 2, there are many different perspectives of coming to a conclusion of defining a place and these perspectives have depended on the people's experiences.

The different perspectives have brought many researchers to conclude important factors that define place in the world. For example, some include that place involves the level of dwelling of humans connection with he natural world. While others have concluded that universal thinking can leave out how differences places relate to person to person. Then, within those differences there are purposes throughout regions that influence the the change or motive of change.

I thought at the end of the chapter of how researchers have concluded that "place should not be thought of in terms of stasis and boundedness but are instead the product of processes that extend well beyond the confines of a particular place" was a great ending to understand a universal idea that place's definition is limitless.
