Doing geography
Our Doing geography guides for researchers promote the contributions of geography and geographers, and share these in an intelligent and accessible form.
Those who read these should learn something new about the topic, or perhaps have a topic they are familiar with explained to them in a new way.

How we make our guides accessible
The content of these guides is written in an accessible format and style, and is published under open access creative commons licences; each ideally includes short commentaries, interventions, or thematic explorations that highlight the key issues or briefly explore specific topics, which are brought together by an editor(s) who oversees the collection.
Detailed terminology or jargon associated with specific types or forms of geography is kept to a minimum, and lengthy lists of references to the literature are avoided.
