Human Geography

Five Volume Set

This four-volume set begins with a discussion of the histories and geographies of geographical knowledge. While human geography's succession of "theoretical turns" is important in understanding the discipline, this work also demonstrates the multiple, textured ways in which geography explains how we represent ourselves and others. Volumes III and IV focus on the central concerns of the discipline: Space (in relation to productions, practices and performances) and Nature (in relation to distinctions between "culture" and "nature").

SAGE Fundamentals of Geography is a series of authoritative Major Works in Human Geography and Physical Geography edited by internationally recognised scholars. The first two in the series are overview volumes on these two main subject areas. Taken together, these two sets demonstrate what is singular about the geographical imagination and the unique contribution its diverse perspectives makes to human science and natural science, as well as the link it provides between the human and the natural.
