Abstract
Geography has been defined as the study of the mutual relationship between human being and environment. The concept of “human” is not clear in geography. This fact has caused ambiguities concerning the essence and the range of study of geography. Many other sciences such as psychology, economics, politics, etc. discuss about humans. The concept of human in geography is different from those of other sciences. The importance of human being in geography lies in is his/her activities. Considering the concept of human in geography, this science can be defined as follows: “Geography is the study of mutual relationship between human activities and environment”. Isolation of human being in geographic studies is the great danger which threatens the science of geography.
