Nature, many geographers agree, is a concept centralto geographical inquiry. What fewer geographers agreeon, however, is the meaning of the word 'nature'.Complex, polysemic, multifarious, ambiguous,misunderstood, contested, politicised - these are afew of the words that have been used to describe theconcept of nature in geography.Ripples in the Storm is a survey that traces the ideaof nature as it developed and cycled through time andthrough geographical thought and writings - fromgeography's beginnings as a discipline, topresent-day currents and debates revolving aroundquestions of nature, culture and society.The book is also a celebration of sorts inrecognition of the richness and diversity of thediscipline of geography - a diversity within whichthe author outlines a pattern to help students ofgeography, and readers interested in geography andnature, make sense of the complexity and ambiguity ofthe nature concept.
