This book is an introduction to the nature of geography. There are
detailed sections on content, methods and purposes and an attempt
is made to distinguish progress from those changes which are merely
fashion and those which result in genuine progress. One of these,
resulting partly from the adoption of quantitative techniques, is
the improvement in the accuracy and the type of explanation which
the geographer is now able to give. The new techniques have also
helped in the bringing about of profound changes in geographical
laws, the use of models and even the relevance of determinism.
