註釋Ref: CosmoGeography is a flourishing and diverse field of study, drawing on a range of disciplines from geology to the social sciences. Cosmo's highly successful Dictionary has already in its first two editions proved its value as an invaluable guide to, and in many instances explanation and illustration of the principles, concepts, and terminology of geography in the 1990s. This new, enlarged edition reflects advances in the discipline in recent years. Many new entries have been added, a significant proportion of which relate to the critical inter- face between human and physical considerations. Existing entries have been revised and updated and the dictionary now includes over 2000 terms widely used by modem geographers. It provides a detailed definition and explanation of each and has an extensive cross-referencing system, which enables the reader easily to identify associated terms. The COSMO DICTIONARY OF GEOGRAPHY provides:o An up-to-date explanation of terms from all branches of the subject.o Concise definitions of terms and conceptso Detailed entries of important areaso Comprehensive, modem and packed with vital informationo Informative and explanatory illustrations and diagrams
