There are physical geography and human geography. Physical geography is our textbook, but we don't study this book in our major, so we have to take it for the postgraduate entrance examination. Many graduate students of physical geography in universities have this book, such as Lanzhou University, Nanda University, Beijing Normal University and South Normal University. This book is very good and comprehensive. It basically covers all the contents of university physical geography, including introduction to the earth, geology, atmosphere and climatology, hydrology, geomorphology, soil geography and so on. Then there is human geography.

The human geography we studied, this book is mainly about the introduction of university human geography, which is very good. The content includes the development course and history of human geography, which can be divided into population geography, agricultural geography, industrial geography, religious geography, political geography, language geography and behavioral geography. That's about it. This subject is developed on the basis of cartography and belongs to two disciplines under scientific geography. With the development of information technology, knowledge engineering, computer and communication technology, cartography and geographic information system have gradually become important technical support for national economic departments such as resources and environment, urban and regional planning and management, land use and management, water conservancy and hydropower, transportation and civil engineering. It plays an increasingly important role in the sustainable development of the national economy.
