Book Description

Research in Applied Geography by C. A. Verma is a research-methodology-oriented book designed to introduce students and researchers to the principles, methods, and techniques used in geographical research. The book is particularly relevant to applied geography, where geographical knowledge and research techniques are used to understand and address practical social, economic, environmental, and spatial problems.

The book provides a foundation for undertaking geographical research systematically, including the formulation of research problems, collection and interpretation of geographical information, use of appropriate research methods, and presentation of research findings. Applied geography generally emphasizes the practical application of geographical theories, methods, and techniques to real-world problems and planning.

The book is also recommended as a reading for postgraduate Geography students in university curricula. For example, Kannur University lists Verma's Research in Applied Geography among its essential readings for research methodology in Geography.
