Review
...some excellent sections and case studies are included. Chapter 5 is also useful in that it explains the structure of the examination for the student and gives details on improving exam technique. ...this text has a lot to offer departments, particularly if they are looking for up to date information on areas they currently study... -- Scottish Association of Geography Teachers (SAGT) 20011027 Great to have well tried books rewritten and updated, and kept entirely relevant. Improved diagrams appreciated, new examples add variety, and all in one book is ideal. Well trusted "local" Geographers as authors who know Scotland's courses, requirements and exam system. It is spot on for Higher - great! -- Mrs E Caldwell, Carnoustie High School 20011001
