Publisher's Synopsis

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.
