内容説明
Introducing human geography from a unique global perspective, this concise but comprehensive work provides readers with a basis for understanding the human world as it is today and as it has evolved through the centuries. Exploring the long history of human geography, from pre-classical maps to today's technical advances, and stressing its links with other academic disciplines in the social sciences, humanities, and physical sciences, the book offers a new organizational framework exploring all of human geography in a logical sequence, and introducing all relevant methodologies, including environmental determinism and possibi8lism, positivism, humanism, and Marxism. The author presents human geography as a pragmatic, wide-ranging discipline, grounded in space and place, with a strong explanatory power for major cultural and economic issues, continually evolving in response to the changing needs of society. Offering readers a firm foundation in theory, Human Geography also provides a wealth of provocative case studies chosen to illustrate philosophical and conceptual ideas, and to impart basic geographical knowledge. Accessible and comprehensive, it is essential reading for anyone who needs to understand the world we live in, and how we live in the world. _
