Talk:Milton Santos

Untitled
I hope that my changes have kept faith with the author's intent. I confess that I don't understand the phrases "the skinned ones" and "motivated by a pled uncle", so I didn't try to improve them. 162.84.72.171 02:45, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

Bad English
The author of the article is obviously not a native speaker. It appears that the author, probably from Brazil just like Milton Santos himself, was knowledgeable of Santos life but was unable to properly present the facts in the English language. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.20.196.164 (talk) 10:03, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

References to be added
I came here after he was added to the 'notable' list on Human geography. I had a brief lookup, and he appears in this on my desk (a standard text for throwing at undergraduates) Peet, R (ed.) (1998) Modern Geographical Thought Wiley-Blackwell, p.127

Appears in the history of the radical geographical journal Antipode (journal) http://www.antipode-online.net/aims.asp

And appears in the index of the Dictionary of Human Geography, 2000 (4th edition). I haven't gone beyond books on my desk, but these are some english references which could be added to the current references which seem to be mostly in Spanish (and some currently producing 404s). If I get some time soon, I'll do this myself & have a stab at overhauling the language of the article & adding something more explicit about his work as a geographer. --Cooper-42 (talk) 08:53, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

There's a good biography in English here: http://www.brazzil.com/pages/rpdjul01.htm But I'm not sure how reliable the source is, but it reads similar to what's here--Cooper-42 (talk) 19:04, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
