Accepting the notion of progress as fundamental to the human condition, the author offers an overview of development in practice and in theory, with a special emphasis on how the work of geographers contribute to the understanding of development and regional development goals. The author concludes that in any treatment of development, understanding of the spatial and temporal differences encountered in the study is a primary goal. The waxing and waning of growth in regional circumstances are contingent on history, culture, resources, and a host of other factors. Distributed by Taylor & Francis.
