Communicating in Geography and the Environmental Sciences is about communicating effectively in academic settings. This key text builds on the success of its earlier editions and comprehensively covers the whys and hows of essays, research and laboratory reports, reviews, summaries, annotated bibliographies, maps, figures, tables, posters, examinations and talks. This book was written to provide students with an insight into the expectations of the people for whom they will be writing essays, giving talks and drawing figures, enabling them to prepare better work than might otherwise have been possible.
