The Changing Nature of Physical Geography
Formerly The Nature of Physical Geography, this volume has achieved great success as the only comprehensive overview of the field of physical geography. In this new edition, Gregory takes stock of the major developments which have occurred in the discipline over the 15 years since its first publication, fully updates the text, and restructures the chapter format. A fluent companion to a richly-diverse, ever-changing discipline, it is indispensable for all students of physical geography.

Physical Geographers can learn the history of physical geog
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Many physical geography instructors provide no history of, or detail the prospects for, the discipline they instruct in. This is by far the best scholarly attempt to provide a synopsis of the possibilities for physical geographic research: where it was, and where it CAN go. The bibliography is outstanding. Highly recommended as a supplement to American Intro. Physical Geography courses (for motivated majors) even though it is written for the British university. It may help breath life back into a neglected subject that the authors believe has great promise for examining past, present, and future global environmental change.
