Product Description

Product Description
Introducing Human Geographies is a comprehensive, stimulating and innovative introduction to human geography. This second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to build upon the success of the acclaimed first edition. Now in full colour and with sixteen new chapters, discussion points and glossary definitions in the margin, it is even more accessible.



Part one discusses the principal ideas through which human geographers understand and shape their subject.



Part two examines each of the main sub-fields:

· cultural geography

· development geography

· economic geography

· environmental geography

· historical geography

· political geography

· rural geography

· social geography

· urban geography.



Part three demonstrates how different thematic interests are combined in cutting-edge human geographical debates.



Introducing Human Geographies continues to be the essential textbook for first year undergraduate geography students taking introductory courses in human geography.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent introductory text to key comtemporary debates, 25 May 2002
By A Customer
This book provides undergraduates, particularly first year students in human geography a comprehensive grounding into the key debates within human geography. It is also a good text for any students wishing to re-familiarising with a variety of geographical issues. This book is easy to understand, but never simplistic. It also excellent case study material and references for further reading. A near essential book for any human geographers.

4.0 out of 5 stars A contemporary description of human geography, 2 Mar 2001
By A Customer
This book combines the expert views and knowledge to produce a book showing the varied spectrum of human geography. Using descriptive terminology, and detailed case studies, it relates to human behaviour and other aspects in a geographical spatial context.

It covers every aspect of human geography, from the historial development of hegamonic nations, to social-economic geography, to contemporary issues such as equity and sustainability. This book is a helpful undergraduate student textbook, precisely focusing on the subject. This book is technical and may not be be everyday readable material.
