Stemming from the operational research, the  optimisation was little approached in geography,  probably because the relations between human and  nature are complex. So the optimisation in geography  is the result of the study of this concept in  various sciences. Some geographers'' works have  already studied the optimisation but it is in a  quite other perspective. The optimisation concept is  envisaged in this book through a new paradigm which  is \"Geography for the better\". This paradigm has as  a purpose the transfer of a theory, an outcome of  the hard sciences, in order to improve the quality  of life, the health of the populations, their well  being and their way to live in a territory. In other  words, \"Geography for the better\" studies the  maximization of factors generating the sustainable  development.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783838394886\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eenvisaging \"Geography for the better\"\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783838394886","offer_id":39498901487709,"sku":"9783838394886","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/9f9ace82-0b22-490b-882e-2bdd2743681c.jpg?v=1773470511","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/reflections-on-optimisation-in-geography-von-gilles-maignant","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
