The Dictionary of Human Geography

This guide to the concepts, terms and theories of human geography has now been fully revised to reflect recent changes in the nature and practice of human geography. The format of previous editions remains unchanged: the dictionary includes short definitional entries and longer, interpretative essays on human geography and its major sub-fields, thereby providing readers with a contextual background to the terms. By directing readers to the major sources for further information, the dictionary also serves as a useful companion to geographical literature and a useful tool for essay writing.
