This study surveys the major trends in geography since 1945 in the English-speaking world and sets their appreciation within the context of economic, social and political changes. It focuses on the debates among geographers regarding what their discipline should study and how it should be done. The text draws on a wide reading of the geographical literature produced in the last 50-year period characterized by both massive growth in the number of academic geographers and substantial shifts in conceptions of the discipline's scientific rationale.
