Big or small, islands and their inhabitant communities have long
been the focus of intellectual enquiry, but in recent years a whole
host of new academic institutes, journals, and conferences have
devoted themselves to their study and research. And while early
scholarly work mostly originated from those working in the natural
sciences, and in Physical and Human Geography, Anthropology, and
Archaeology, in the last twenty years or so serious research has
also burgeoned under the rubric of, for example, Cultural
Geography, Regional Development, Environmental Studies, Tourism,
and Identity Studies. This new four-volume collection from
Routledge meets the need for a comprehensive reference work to
allow users to make better sense of this voluminous scholarly and
practical literature. Indeed, the sheer scale-and range-of the
research output makes this title especially welcome. Island Studies
is fully indexed and has a comprehensive introduction, newly
written by the editors, which places the material in its
intellectual context. It is an essential work of reference and is
destined to be valued by scholars, advanced students, and
policy-makers as a vital one-stop research resource.
