520 _a"This book draws upon selected, revised and edited papers from a conference of rural geographers from the U.K., the U.S., and Canada, held at the Universities of Plymouth and Exeter. It focuses on rural regions, which are facing conflicting demands, pressures, and challenges, which themselveshave far-reaching implications for rural space and society. Themes that occur throughout the book include agricultural change, environmental issues, rural communities, governanance and globalization, and rural response to these themes."--Publisher description.
