This paper presents an approach to the origins and evolution of geography knowledge to encourage those who are on the threshold of this discipline to the interpretation and analysis of its content, its nature and its scope as applied science. The last part of the paper will raise some issues about the scope and commitment of those who are invited to do geography more as an applied discipline than as a methodological and systematic tool for harmonizing the life of human societies and their interdependencies.
