The Dictionary of Human Geography

The Dictionary of Human Geography is the definitive guide to issues and ideas, methods and theories in human geography. Now in its fifth edition, this ground–breaking text has been comprehensively revised to reflect the changing nature and practice of human geography and its rapidly developing connections with other fields.
Situating human geography within the humanities, social sciences, and sciences as whole, and written by the leading experts in the field, the major entries not only describe the development of concepts, contributions, and debates in human geography, but also advance them. Shorter, definitional entries allow quick reference and coverage of the wider subject area, whilst a consolidated bibliography provides convenient access to key works by major figures.
The Dictionary of Human Geography continues to be seen as the one guidebook to human geography no student, lecturer or researcher can afford to be without.
