Research Methods in Geography: A Critical Introduction

"On the other hand, as a desk reference for graduate students or even many faculty, such inconsistencies are less important - and in that capacity, Research Methods in Geography is a good and accessible resource for current practice in the discipline." (International Planning Studies, 2011)

"Encompassing both the new-and-trendy and the tried-and-true, this comprehensive 'travel guide' across the discipline's vast and diverse intellectual terrain is remarkable for its breadth, depth, and scope."
—Jonathan D. Phillips, University of Kentucky

"This vibrant and engaging collection takes students through the research process from conceptual foundations to writing, making this book an ideal guide for those undertaking their first research project."
—Joanne P. Sharp, University of Glasgow

"This excellent text, giving both a synoptic and detailed treatment of the subject, and written by some of the most respected geographers in the field, will be extremely useful for all flavors of methods courses in geography. It will also be a valuable reference for students and faculty alike, whether in the human geography, physical geography, or geographic information science realm."
