Introducing Human Geographies is a 'travel guide' into the academic subject of human geography and the things that it studies.

The coverage of the new edition has been thoroughly refreshed to reflect and engage with the contemporary nature and direction of human geography.

This updated and much extended fourth edition includes a diverse range of authors and topics from across the globe, with a completely revised set of contributions reflecting contemporary concerns in human geography. Presented in four parts with a streamlined structure, it includes over 70 contributions written by expert international researchers addressing the central ideas through which human geographers understand and shape their subject.

It maps out the big, foundational ideas that have shaped the discipline past and present; explores key research themes being pursued in human geography's various sub-disciplines; and identifies emerging collaborations between human geography and other disciplines in the areas of technology, justice and environment. This comprehensive, stimulating and cutting-edge introduction to the field is richly illustrated throughout with full colour figures, maps and photos.

The book is designed especially for students new to university degree courses in human geography across the world, and is an essential reference for undergraduate students on courses related to society, place, culture and space.
