Reviews

Geographers: Biobibliographical Studies, Volume 37 will be most helpful to geographers interested in the history of their own field and subfields. But beyond their use to this specialized audience, the book's essays demonstrate the many forms a scholarly life can take and different ways of making meaningful contributions to the profession. * Isis Journal *
