The Scope of School Geography

Abstract

THE authors have briefly reviewed the scope of school geography, maintaining two dominant themes throughout, one the essential unity of the subject, the other the scientific character of its data and its methods. “Geography, properly speaking, has a definite viewpoint of its own and is not a mosaic of loans from other subjects.” “The teaching of geography is no less the work of a specialist than the teaching of chemistry or history.”

The Scope of School Geography.

By Dr. R. N. Rudmose Brown O. J. R. Howarth J. Macfarlane. Pp. 158. (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1922.) 5s. 6d. net.
