Abstract

This book is part of a series “… aimed at students, parents and teachers (which) explains in practical terms the range and scope of an academic subject at university level …”. Each book in the series attempts to address “crucial questions” which college prospectuses, given their particular role in the crowded international market-place, avoid or at best gloss over. It is squarely aimed at the English-speaking world and mainly the British educational diaspora. However, this book, concerning the study of geography, is of interest to the international field geography educationists, not least through the manner in which geography as a subject is described, but also through the detail of its sources describing geography and geographers in the work place, policy making and so on.
