Abstract

This paper sets out to discuss the discipline of Time Geography. To succeed in this aim the issue has to be defined and explained within the context of geography, and its uses illustrated in an attempt at understanding the manifestations in the spatial organisation and man. Geography is a very broad discipline and embraces many diverse fields of study. It encompasses many different elements of the planet from the atmosphere to the sociosphere. This latter sphere examines man's interaction with the geographical sphere.
