Cuprins
Textul de pe ultima copertă
In recent years the number of physical and human geographers with interests in the tangled relationships between environment and society has grown considerably. Fueled by resurgent public and governmental concern about ′the human impact′ on the non–human world, there is currently more research and teaching activity in the marchlands between ′pure′ physical and ′pure′ human geography than ever before. In over 30 chapters A Companion to Environmental Geography brings together international expertise from across the discipline to map the growing middle ground between physical and human geography and explore human environment relationships.
Taking in a range of topics from remote sensing and ethnography to biodiversity, geoarchaeology, and environmental governance, this Companion is the first book to provide comprehensive and systematic coverage of this emergent area of study.
