I wish to express my sincere thanks to the authors of the text books that I consulted to be able to complete this book. I wish to thank fellow Geographers for their brotherly advise and encouragement.

In a special way, I have to thank the management of KAWA publishers for the kind acceptance to publish this book in a short time. Without this contribution this book would not have seen the light of the day.

I welcome positive criticisms, which are intended to improve even further the quality of this work.
