  This book covers the key topics of geomorphology for A level students. It explores the processes of landscape change through examples, and explains techniques which enable the student to measure the present landscape processes, assess the effects of past processes, interpret and use field observations and simple statistical methods. The author stresses the role of humans in shaping landforms and encourages readers to explore their local landscapes. Open-ended questions and data-response exercises are included in each chapter. Collard aims to promote an enduring interest in the landscape and to relate the ideas and concepts to the students' own lives.
