Overview
Human Geography, ninth edition retains the organization
and structure of its earlier versions. Like them, it seeks to introduce
its users to the scope and excitement of geography and its
relevance to their daily lives and roles as informed citizens. We
recognize that for many students, human geography may be
their first or only work in geography and this their first or only
textbook in the discipline. For these students particularly, we
seek to convey the richness and breadth of human geography
and to give insight into the nature and intellectual challenges of
the field of geography itself. Our goals are to be inclusive in
content, current in data, and relevant in interpretations. These
goals are elusive. Because of the time lapse between world
events and the publication of a book, inevitably events outpace
analysis. We therefore depend on a continuing partnership with
classroom instructors to provide the currency of information
and the interpretation of new patterns of human geographic substance
that changing conditions demand.
