Publication Information

First published in 1994. This book comprises a second edition of Human Geography, behavioural approaches, first published in 1984.

Content Overview

The first edition attempted to synthesize the massive volume of geographical literature to have appeared mainly since 1960 concerned with both how people come to know the environment in which they live and with the way in which such knowledge influences subsequent spatial behaviour.

Approach and Analysis

As with the first edition, the rationale for, advantages of, and shortcomings with behavioural approaches are explored at length in both substantive chapters and in a number of detailed examinations of particular aspects of life in advanced Western society.
