Key Methods in Geography Upplaga 2
"Its range is far broader than the majority of methods texts, being concerned with both human and physical geography... Given the seriousness with which Key Methods in Geography approaches all aspects of research, it will continue to find wide favour among undergraduate geographers."
- Times Higher Education Textbook Guide
"All geographers, whatever their interest, need to do research. This book will help them get started in the best possible way, with thoughtful advice on everything from project design, through choice of methods, to data analysis and presentation. The editors have assembled an impressive array of authors, all experts in their chosen field."
- Tim Burt, University of Durham
"Excellent book. Valuable teaching aid. Well written and covers a wide range of methods thoroughly."
- Sue Rodway-Dyer, Exeter University
"This is an excellent book and deals with a number of topics (which I teach) outside of the tutorial module where it is a recommended text for geographers. A very useful textbook throughout a 3 year Geography programme."
- Ian Harris, Bangor University
Key Methods in Geography is an introduction to the principal methodological issues involved in the collection, analysis and presentation of geographical information.

A short definition
A summary of the principal arguments
A substantive 5,000-word discussion
