Medical geography is a fascinating area of rapidly evolving study
that aims to analyse and improve worldwide health issues based on
the geographical factors which have an impact on them. Perspectives
in Medical Geography will appeal to both novice and seasoned
researchers looking to be informed on the latest theories and
applications in the field. Chapters represent a wide range of
industries, ranging from private/public universities to private
companies to non-profit foundations. Contributors describe ways in
which map and geography librarians can engage in public health
research - creating data standards, archiving map collections and
providing mapping/GIS services. In addition to compiling current
theories and practices related to medical geography, this volume
also features commentaries from two pre-eminent geography
librarians, sharing their perspectives on this emerging field and
how map and geographic information librarians can engage in
health-related research through their profession. This book was
originally published as two special issues of the Journal of Map
& Geography Libraries.
