"Geography has various streams and branches, Resource Geography being one of these. Resource satisfies individual needs and attains social objectives. It also refers to the positive interaction between man and nature. Man is, of course, the most important and integral part of resource creation, as he is situated on the top of the hierarchy of resource, consumption. The aim of this book is to understand the various aspects of Resource Geography." (jacket)
