Abstract
All academic fields evolve and geography is no exception. Geographers are broadening their perspectives, borrowing from related disciplines from other sciences including social behavioral and natural sciences. New examples of applied research have been explored in this book ranging from G.I.S. to medicometry, in different parts of the world. This is a chance to consider the future geography in light of increasing opportunities in the world of application.
The authors want to thank Reginald Golledge and Grady Meehan for their useful comments.
