Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A New Method With Geography: Illustrating the Use of the Sketch-Map There has, in recent year, been much discussion on the subject of map-drawing as an aid in the study of Geography; and, while many good teachers strongly advocate it, some equally good teachers as strongly oppose it. The opposition is founded mainly on the fact that it takes up too much valuable time. And, who will say that this objection is not well taken? Pupils have been encouraged to spend weeks in the mechanical construction of maps into whose real meaning and relative proportions they took but little trouble to inquire, but rather spent their time in tracing outlines and coloring surfaces according to some model (usually the map in the book) which lay before them. This mechanical accuracy of copying is, in itself, not a bad thing, but it does not develop the faculty of location nor teach the pupil anything about Geography. To draw maps according to some cartographic diagram, or design, is to defeat the object intended to be gained, and hence, many of our best teachers have warred against map-drawing. The Sketching of maps from memory at once sets aside these objections and retains all that is favorable. This exercise when rightly conducted is a most valuable aid, and the following lessons have been arranged to assist teachers and pupils in its execution. The pupils should take their places at the black-board, and at the direction of the teacher draw the boundary lines, - drawing the same lines at the same time. In this way the outline may be discussed and criticised at different points and its accuracy determined from their memory of positions and relative proportions. Mountains, rivers and lakes should then be sketched, and discussed as to their location, trend, and extent. The capitals and other important cities should then be located.

Download or read book The SAGE Handbook of Qualitative Geography written by Dydia DeLyser and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2009-11-18 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the dynamic growth, change, and complexity of qualitative research in human geography, The SAGE Handbook of Qualitative Geography brings together leading scholars in the field to examine its history, assess the current state of the art, and project future directions. "In its comprehensive coverage, accessible text, and range of illustrative studies, past and present, the Handbook has established an impressive new standard in presenting qualitative methods to geographers." - David Ley, University of British Columbia Moving beyond textbook rehearsals of standard issues, the Handbook shows how empirical details of qualitative research can be linked to the broader social, theoretical, political, and policy concerns of qualitative geographers and the communities within which they work. The book is organized into three sections: Part I: Openings engages the history of qualitative geography, and details the ways that research, and the researcher′s place within it, are conceptualized within broader academic, political, and social currents. Part II: Encounters and Collaborations describes the different strategies of inquiry that qualitative geographers use, and the tools and techniques that address the challenges that arise in the research process. Part III: Making Sense explores the issues and processes of interpretation, and the ways researchers communicate their results. Retrospective as well as prospective in its approach, this is geography′s first peer-to-peer engagement with qualitative research detailing how to conceive, carry out and communicate qualitative research in the twenty-first century. Suitable for postgraduate students, academics, and practitioners alike, this is the methods resource for researchers in human geography.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As political, economic, and environmental issues increasingly spread across the globe, the science of geography is being rediscovered by scientists, policymakers, and educators alike. Geography has been made a core subject in U.S. schools, and scientists from a variety of disciplines are using analytical tools originally developed by geographers. Rediscovering Geography presents a broad overview of geography's renewed importance in a changing world. Through discussions and highlighted case studies, this book illustrates geography's impact on international trade, environmental change, population growth, information infrastructure, the condition of cities, the spread of AIDS, and much more. The committee examines some of the more significant tools for data collection, storage, analysis, and display, with examples of major contributions made by geographers. Rediscovering Geography provides a blueprint for the future of the discipline, recommending how to strengthen its intellectual and institutional foundation and meet the demand for geographic expertise among professionals and the public.
Download or read book Legal Geography written by Tayanah O’Donnell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first legal geography book to explicitly engage in method. It complements this by also bringing together different perspectives on the emerging school of legal geography. It explores human–environment interactions and showcases distinct environmental legal geography scholarship. Legal Geography: Perspectives and Methods is an innovative book concerned with a new relational and material way of examining our legal-spatial world. With chapters examining natural resource management, Indigenous knowledge and political ecology scholarship, the text introduces legal geography’s modes of analysis and critique. The book explores topics such as Indigenous environmental rights, the impacts of extractive industries, mediation of climate change, food, animal and plant patents, fossil fuels, mining and coastal environments based on empirical, jurisdictional and methodological insights from Australia, New Zealand and the Asia-Pacific to demonstrate how space and place are invoked in legal processes and contestations, and the methods that may be employed to explore these processes and contestations. This book examines the role of legal geographies in the 21st century beyond the simple “law in action”, and it will thus appeal to students of socio-legal studies, human geography, environmental studies, environmental policy, as well as politics and international relations.
