Undergraduate geography students are often directed to ’key’ texts in the literature but find them difficult to read because of their language and argument. As a result, they fail to ‘get to grips’ with the subject matter and gravitate towards course textbooks instead. Key Texts in Human Geography serves as a primer and companion to the key texts in human geography ublished over the past 40 years. It is not a reader, but a volume of 26 interpretive essays highlighting: • the significance of the text • how the book should be read • the book’s main arguments and how it advanced geographical thought • reactions and controversies surrounding the book • the book’s long-term legacy. This book is an essential reference guide for all students of human geography and provides an invaluable interpretive tool in answering questions about human geography and what constitutes geographical ‘knowledge’..
