"What is geography? Geography is a fundamental fascination with, and a crucial method for, understanding the way the world works. This text offers readers a short and highly accessible account of the ideas and concepts constituting geography. Drawing out the key themes that define the subject, What Is Geography? demonstrates how and why these themes-like environment and geopolitics-are of fundamental importance. 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. Introductory but not simplified, What Is Geography? provides students with the ability to understand the history and context of the subject without any prior knowledge. Designed as a key transitional text for students entering undergraduate courses, this book will be of interest to all readers interested in and intrigued by the "geographical imagination.""-- Provided by publisher.
