In this book, Nick Hopwood explores how pupils experience geography lessons, what
they think geography as a school subject is about and what geography means to them. He
does this rather well and in polishing the fruits of his doctoral research Hopwood has
produced a book that will have a long shelf-life. There are plenty of directions a new
researcher could take this original and engaging story. And, based on the experiences of
just six 13-14 year olds (in three different schools), the book is a fine guide to how to
conduct meaningful research with a small group of informants.
