This book provides students in human geography with a vital
resource - a collection of writings critical to understanding the
field as a whole and revealing the interactions of its component
parts. It is designed to give students ready access to the
literature their studies are most likely to lead them to consult.
The book is divided into five parts. Parts I and II describe the
nature of the enterprise and show the origins and current state of
thinking on central issues. Part III is concerned with interactions
between nature, culture and landscape. Part IV considers area
differences and geographic units such as region, place and
locality. Part V provides insights into the concepts of space, time
and space-time. The editors have provided a general introduction,
introductions to each part and contextual notes for each chapter.
Each part concludes with sections of further reading by subject and
the volume ends with a time chart of the main developments in
geography.
This collection of seminal articles aims to be revealing,
challenging and engaging. It amply demonstrates why human geography
is a subject worthy of the student's engagement and provides a
vital and rewarding resource for its understanding.
