Applied Geography offers an invaluable introduction to useful research in physical, environmental and human geography and provides a new focus and reference point for investigating and understanding problem-orientated research. Forty-nine leading experts in the field introduce and explore research which crosses the traditional boundary between physical and human geography. A wide range of key issues and contemporary debates are within the books main sections, which cover: natural and environmental hazards environmental change and management challenges of the human environment techniques of spatial analysis Applied geography is the application of geographic knowledge and skills to identify the nature and causes of social, economic and environmental problems and inform policies which lead to their resolution.

Excerpt from Studies in the Principles of Geography: Following the Problem Method This little book represents an attempt to develop a working knowledge of some of the principles of geography through the problem method of attack. It is the outgrowth of classroom experience and has been in the process of evolution through a number of years. The method of attack and development follows as nearly as possible the natural steps in the thinking process. The aim has been not to sacrifice pedagogical considerations for the sake of a logical arrangement, but to correlate the two in the best possible way. It will be noted that there arc ten groups of problems. Each group is introduced by the statement of the large idea, the central thought running through the entire series of problems. The main problems of this book involve what may be considered a list of basic minimum essentials in the principles of geography. The conclusions, which are an essential part of each problem, require the formal statement of a large list of geographic principles, each vitally connected up with some problem full of life interest. The related problems are calculated to give the student drill on principles previously learned, and to afford opportunity to recognize old principles in new associations. Frequently it will be found that the related problem is really a corollary to the main problem, rather than a mere practice exercise. It may not be out of place here to state that this syllabus was awarded first place by the National Council of Normal School Presidents and Principals in a competition among syllabi submitted from thirty-seven normal schools in twenty-four states.

Not illustrated. 1913 edition. Excerpt: ... in the pursuit of further geographical studies, or in occasional need of interpreting these data in general reading. Cultural aims.--Turning to those aims of geography that consider something beyond mere utility, namely, intellectual pleasure, mental strength, refinement, and growth of character, the subject, it will be found, has much to offer. It should be noted that some of the preceding utilitarian aims have also a cultural side, as the development of the social sense and patriotism, and the appreciation of history and literature. Geography contributes to the enjoyment of the natural elements and forces, the beauty of scenery, and the ways of life of the people, both in our local walks and in more extended travels. One should read the geography of the places to be visited, their history and literature, if one wishes to get the most pleasure and satisfaction out of travel. The subject of geography is intrinsically very interesting. Books of travel, exploration, and of descriptive, general geography may be very pleasant and entertaining reading. In fact, in the beginning when geography had not yet been accredited as a distinct subject for schools, and efforts were made to introduce it, this was one of the chief arguments of its advocates. Sir Thomas Elyot, in the Govemour, 1531, writing about cosmography (what geography was then), says: "For what pleasure it is, in one hour to behold those realms, cities, seas, rivers, and mountains that uneth scarcely in an old man's life can not be journeyed and pursued! What incredible delight is taken in beholding the diversities of people, beasts, fowls, fishes, trees, fruits, and herbs: to know the sundry manners and conditions of people, and the variety of their natures, and that in a warm study...
