In advancing disciplines like Geography, the methodological debate is a sign of health. In Geography, there has been extreme diversity of viewpoints on both philosophy and methodology with constant extension and also a shift in focus. The methodology of geography came under debate for the first time during the middle of twentieth century when the paper published by F.K. Schaefer, an American scholar, brought both the qualitative and quantitative revolution in geographic development. Shortly after this publication were discussed the paradigmatic shifts in a discipline by Thomas S. Kuhn, another American scholar, through his seiminal work in which he painted a picture of the development of science quite unlike that had gone before. In order to elucidate this process of development of science Kuhn prepared a model termed as the 'Paradigm of Science'. Distinct parallels may be sought between the historical evolution of scientific discipline as explained by Thomas Kuhn and the historical evolution of the discipline of geography. Seeking inspiration from the works of both of the great scholars mentioned above, the present book examines the evolution of geographical thought from the perspective of Thomas Kuhn. Two publications of mine (2008 & 2014) are on this line only. However, the methodological literature, to understand the philosophical background making possible this disciplinary growth, is too small. The purpose here is to explore and screen the growth and development of Geography under sequential methodological changes over time in the light of vanous paradigmatic shifts with the acknowledgement of crises and revolutionary phases of development in the discipline. Accordingly, the work identifies eight paradigmatic shifts intercepted by eight phases of crises in the discipline.

This book provides a unique assessment of the development of research in geography education and its future prospects, offering a challenging critique of subject-based education research, with particular reference to geography education across a range of different jurisdictions. It covers a range of topics, including the changing role of research in geography education; the relationship between education research and professional practice, with special reference to geography education research; the place of academic subject knowledge in geography education research; critiques of the functions of research in geography education; and the key issues for education policy and policymakers concerning educational research at national and international levels. Importantly, in a period marked by radical change for education research and researchers, the book offers a timely appraisal of possible ways forward for geography education research. Addressing the needs of academics, research students, policymakers, and education practitioners who undertake, use or shape the future of research in geography education, it comprehensively explores the forces that have driven the development of geography education research and pedagogy. Further, by positioning its analysis in the context of education policy debates in the UK, and further afield, it assesses the role and function of research in education, and offers an outlook on its future. This book is essential reading for all those who wish to understand the sporadic and increasingly uncertain development of subject-based research in education

Following the Second World War, modern systems of urban and regional planning were established in Britain and most other developed countries. In this book, Nigel Taylor describes the changes in planning thought which have taken place since then. He outlines the main theories of planning, from the traditional view of urban planning as an exercise in physical design, to the systems and rational process views of planning of the 1960s; from Marxist accounts of the role of planning in capitalist society in the 1970s, to theories about planning implementation, and more recent views of planning as a form of `communicative action′.
