While the discipline of geography has had much to say about how such environmental transformations occur, few studies have focused on the lives of geographers themselves, their ideologies, and how they understand their field. This edited collection illuminates the social and biographical contexts of geographers in postwar Britain who were influenced by and studied under the pioneering geomorphologist, A. T. Grove. These contributors uncover the relationships and networks that shaped their research on diverse terrains from Africa to the Mediterranean, highlighting their shared concerns which have profound implications not only for the study of geography and geomorphology, but also for questions of environmental history, ecological conservation, and human security.. | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | Climate Change; Desert Geomorphology; Desert Ecology; History of Geography; Environmental History; the Me | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-28323-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-28325-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-28323-0 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
