Product Description
Excerpt from Physical and Commercial Geography: A Study of Certain Controlling Conditions of Commerce
The triple authorship, corresponding practically to the three Parts of this book, expresses graphically our belief that the facts and princi ples involved in a study of the environmental relations of man require contributions from both the natural and the social sciences, and are best presented by a combination of workers from these two fields. Therefore while each author is directly responsible for the presenta tion of material from his particular field, the outline and general character of treatment is the joint work of the three authors. General editorial supervision has been exercised by the author of Part II.
