Introducing Human Geographies, First Edition Paul Clok

'Introducing Human Geographies' provides an innovative, comprehensive and stimulating first-year introduction to human geography. This major new textbook introduces some of the flavour and excitement of human geography today, playing not only to recognisable subfields but also making accessible some of the more contemporary developments which form the cutting edge of the discipline.



This new undergraduate textbook is structured around three main sections. The first - Foundations - works through a number of underlying debates that are stimulating much contemporary innovation within human geography. The second - Themes - provides a sub-disciplinarily structured account of this innovation, outlining its contribution to questions of development, economy, environment, history, politics, society, and culture. The final section - Contexts - highlights how these questions come together in work on particular 'spaces' and 'places', emphasising how much of the best contemporary work in human geography blurs traditional sub-disciplinary distinctions.

Introducing Human Geographies, First Edition Bewertungen

The chapters are short, clearly written, of high quality, with a wealth of excellent visual material to help make key points in a variety of ways and a glossary of key terms at the end.
Progress in Human Geography

Written in a clear and easily approachable manner, striking an appropriate balance between explaining concepts and providing examples from past and contemporary geographical research...in a well-structured format. It will prove useful for students wishing to dip into specific areas of geographical research as well as being a comprehensive introductory text for first year undergraduates.
