What follows is ostensibly a review of a book called Signposts for Geography Teaching, edited by Rex Walford, and published by the Longman Group (1981) at £4.50. It should be stated, however, that the latitude usually accorded to reviews has, in this instance, been strained beyond the norm. In other words, this review is so highly selective and idiosyncratic that it hardly warrants the term, “review”, at all.
