| Summary/Abstract |
Using wide-ranging examples from climate change and natural hazards to urbanization and ethnicity, this Very Short Introduction explains the concepts and methods used by geographers, and explores the current state of the subject. Looking at both its strengths and its controversies, the book's conclusion is no less than a manifesto for Geography's future.
