Description
The International Encyclopedia of Human Geography provides an authoritative and comprehensive source of information on the discipline
of human geography and its constituent, and related, subject areas. The encyclopedia includes over 1,000 detailed entries on philosophy
and theory, key concepts, methods and practices, biographies of notable geographers, and geographical thought and praxis in different
parts of the world.
This groundbreaking project covers every field of human geography and the discipline?s relationships to other disciplines,
and is global in scope, involving an international set of contributors. Given its broad, inclusive scope and unique online accessibility,
it is anticipated that the International Encyclopedia of Human Geography will become the major reference work for the discipline
over the coming decades.
The Encyclopedia will be available in both limited edition print and online via ScienceDirect – featuring extensive browsing, searching, and internal cross-referencing between articles in the work, plus dynamic linking to journal
articles and abstract databases, making navigation flexible and easy. For more information, pricing options and availability visit

Audience
Readers will include undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers, teachers and lecturers, and professionals.
Given the multidisciplinary
nature of human geography and the so-called spatial turn across the social sciences and humanities, the International Encyclopedia
of Human Geography will also provide an invaluable source of information for scholars and students outside the discipline.
