Synopsis

This edition reflects advances in the discipline in recent years. Many new entries have been added, a significant proportion of which relate to the critical interface between human and physical considerations. The dictionary now includes over 2000 terms widely used by modern geographers. It provides a detailed definition and explanation of each and has an extensive cross-referencing system which enables the reader to easily identify associated terms.

About this title

Review:

... redresses the bias towards physical geography exhibited by many previous editions ... This third edition is ideal for its target readership and I recommend it.
Reference Reviews

I put ownership of this dictionary and a decent atlas as the essential bases for studying at A level having examined and still examining for Cambridge, Welsh Joint Education, and in the past for Oxford, I am emphatic about this.
