Geography for Secondary Schools
Student’s Book Form One
Sometimes as an interdisciplinary field, Geography provides a base for understanding
other concepts in social sciences. For example, when studying human culture, Geography
provides a basis for understanding spatial distribution and how people interact with the
environment. Geography is also related to political science, especially when describing
political boundaries, regions, population size and distribution of resources in different
locations. Figure 1.2 illustrates the relationship between Geography and other disciplines.
