This edited collection brings together several emerging and established academics with expertise in island studies, as well as interest in geopolitics, governance, adaptive capacity, justice, equity, self-determination, environmental care and protection, and land management. Individually and together, their perspectives provide theoretically useful, empirically grounded evidence of the contributions human geographers can make to knowledge and understanding of island places and the place of islands. Nine chapters engage with the themes, issues, and ideas that characterise the borderlands between island studies and human geography and allied fields, and are contributed by authors for whom matters of place, space, environment, and scale are key, and for whom islands hold an abiding fascination. The penultimate chapter is rather more experimental - a conversation among these authors and the editor - while the last chapter offers timely reflections upon island geographies' past and future, penned by the first named professor of island geography, Stephen Royle. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in human geography. 606 $aIslands$vCase studies 606 $aHuman geography$vCase studies 615 0$aIslands 615 0$aHuman geography 676 $a910.9142 676 $a910.9142 701 $aStratford$b Elaine$0934443 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910149377603321 996 $aIsland geographies$92104314 997 $aUNINA
