Fundamentals of Physical Geography

by Majid Husain

Physical geography deals with the spatial and temporal characteristics and relationships of all phenomena within the physical environment of the earth. A systematic study of physical geography is of immense help in understanding the numerous environmental challenges of the contemporary period. Earth is a place of great physical and cultural diversity, yet people know little about it. The main objective of the present book is to explain the spatial dimensions of the earth s natural systems and their processes. The chapters of the book have been organised in a logical sequence well suited to the curriculum of established physical geography courses. The text includes many special features that are intended to enhance and clarify students understanding and mastery of the material. It has also been adequately documented with suitable maps and diagrams. The book will also be useful for teachers, and for those having interest in knowing more about the physical aspects and the processes responsible for various orders of the earth.
