Afficher les exemplaires de cette édition ISBN'... a tour de force, at once comprehensive, authoritative, accessible and impressively up-to-date. As a broad and balanced introduction for students, teachers and others concerned to understand the major issues in development, it would be difficult to beat and is to be highly recommended. Going far beyond the bounds of geography it covers the range of relevant disciplines as only geographers can. It is much more than a textbook. It is a treasure house of information and insight concerning contemporary issues in development.'
Professor Robert Chambers, Institute of Development Studies, Universityof Sussex
'… an excellent course book for both under-graduates and graduates, and well-endowed with teaching and learning techniques. … It has high ambitions in scope and depth and fulfils them handsomely. As a course text, it must dominate the field.'
Professor Piers Blaikie, Emeritus Professor, Schoolof DevelopmentStudies, Universityof East Anglia.
'Geographies of Development: An Introduction to Development Studies… reflects its intended interdisciplinary appeal, while remaining faithful to its explication of spatial imperatives and impresses of often complex processes. The authors provide carefully balanced and accessible surveys of the respective terrains, conceptual and empirical, highlighting areas of consensus and dissention. The scope of coverage is impressive.'
Professor David Simon, Department of Geography, Royal Holloway, Universityof London
