Beskrivning
Geography is fundamental to understanding the way the world works. This text offers readers a short and highly accessible account of the ideas and concepts constituting geography. Including discussion of both the human and the natural realms, the text looks at key themes such as environment, space, and place—as well as geography's methods and the history of the discipline—showing us how and why they are essential for a thriving planet.Introductory but not simplified, Bonnett provides students with the ability to understand the history and context of the subject without any prior knowledge. This short, elegant book will be of interest to all readers intrigued by the “geographical imagination.”

Recensioner i media

“Alastair Bonnett successfully cuts through the forest of subjects, topics, themes, and approaches to get right to the essential spirit of the field of geography. What is Geography? demonstrates how geography counters the hyper-specialization of knowledge to provide a space for global inter-connected knowledge to flourish. Bonnett makes a convincing case for why fostering a 'planet of geographers' is critical to humanity’s future.”
