Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1982, this book emphasizes the continued significance and distinctiveness of rural settlement, while at the same time recognizing the great changes of recent decades. The early chapters review the field of rural study and trace the evolution of man-land relationships in the establishment of the traditional elements of rural settlement. Later chapters discuss the changes wrought by urbanisation, the industrialisation and commercialisation of agriculture, the growth of recreation and the expanding role of public policy. The book stresses the processes which underlie rural settlement structure and, consistent with its geographical bias, the functional and cultural foundations of settled landscapes. While the main emphasis is on Europe and North America, the diversity of expression of general trends in rural settlement is recognised by drawing upon examples from Africa, India, Latin America and South-East Asia.

Book excerpt: Despite the agrarian character of our civilisation. Rural Settlement Geography is a recent addition to the rubric of geography in India. Most of the studies of Rural Settlements continue to be concerned with site, situation, distribution type form and pattern and very little work has been done by Indian and foreign goegraphers on the cultural landsccapes of different regions of India. The present work of Dr. Neelam Grover is a poineering study of the rural settlements in Northern Haryana region. The Jats, the yeoman cultivators of the plains; the Rajputs, the indolent, landwoners but not cultivators; the Gujars, the cattle-herders, raisers, and pastoralists par excellence, of the lower hills and thepiedmotn tracts, and the Kanets, the ancient farmers of the Himalayan origin now located in the Siwalik Hills form the universe of Dr. Grover's insightful investigation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing a wealth of information and relevant new case study material, Rural Settlement and Urban Impact on the Countryside encourages students to focus in on the highly topical geographical issues that have changed the countryside through urbanisation and counter-urbanisation. Geographical influences upon settlement location, hierarchy and morphology are studied in relation to the context of continuity and change. Economic conditions which lead to rural depopuoation are considered as are those that have led to the repopulation of some rural areas. The impact of the current cirsis in the countryside and the concept of the 'post-rural' society are also examined in relation to rural settlement. The text is illustrated with examples and case studies from Britain, Italy and a number of LEDCs. Applicable to AQA, OCR and Edexcel exam boards, this book is ideal for any student studying this topic.
