Synopsis

A Companion to Environmental Geography is the first book to comprehensively and systematically map the research frontier of 'human-environment geography' in an accessible and comprehensive way.

Presents both the current 'state of the art' research and charts future possibilities for the discipline
Extends the term 'environmental geography' beyond its 'traditional' meanings to include new work on nature and environment by human and physical geographers - not just hazards, resources, and conservation geographers
Contains essays from an outstanding group of international contributors from among established scholars and rising stars in geography
