This accessible and engaging text explores the relationship between philosophy, science and physical geography. It addresses an imbalance that exists in opinion, teaching and to a lesser extent research, between a philosophically enriched human geography and a philosophically ignorant physical geography.Science, Philosophy and Physical Geography challenges the myth that there is a single self-evident scientific method that can and is applied by physical geographers. The book explores the various philosophies that have been developed to study and explain the key questions that are asked by physical geographers in their research. The purpose here is raise awareness of problems and issues that appear a natural and normal part of working processes. Furthermore it emphasises the difference the real world geographical context and the geographer make to the study of environmental phenomenon.
This important text demonstrates using numerous examples the relevance of philosophy for both an understanding of published material and for the design and implementation of studies in physical geography.
