| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Human geography is one of the two major sub-fields of geography. Human geography is the study of human use and understanding of the world and the processes which have affected it. Human geography broadly differs from physical geography in that it has a greater focus on studying intangible or abstract patterns surrounding human activity and is more receptive to qualitative research methodologies. It encompasses most of the aspects of the social sciences. This book studies various fields of human geography including cultural landscapes, language geography, quality of life, and the dependence theory.
