dc.description |
There has always been a long-standing relationship between Geography and the<br />military. In the book Military Geography: from Peace to War, Military Geography<br />is defined as the “application of geographic information, tools and techniques to<br />military problems”. In the international arena, Military Geography enjoys<br />recognition as a formal sub-discipline with its own speciality group within the<br />Association of American Geographers. Military Geography: from Peace to War is a<br />welcome addition to a rather sparse literature collection of this applied subdiscipline<br />of Geography.<br />The book starts with an explanation of the scope of Military Geography that is<br />extremely useful for researchers and students of Military Geography. This<br />explanation enables one to identify the context of the operation under discussion<br />(peacetime, stability and support operations (SASO), or war), the scale of the<br />operation (strategic, operational or tactical), the approach used to study it<br />(systematic, topical or regional) and the perspective of the study (applied and/or<br />historical). |
