A Folk Guide to Geography as a Holistic Science.
Archer, Kevin
Journal of Geography, v94 n3 p404-11 May-Jun 1995
Defines geography as a holistic science that explains variations in the human-environment relationship over the earth's surface. Proposes bridging the gap between the specialized professional approach to geography and practical pedagogical needs. Maintains that geographers should translate their work for nongeographers. (CFR)
