"The Role of the Equilibrium Concept in the Interpretation of Land forms of Fluvial Erosion and Deposition," by Frank Ahnert presents the concept of the equilibrium between the components of morphological processes, which has in recent years met with new interest and is used as the basis for a simple yet reasonably comprehensive system of landform interpretation. "Semi-Nomadism in Southern Israel Today," by Mildred Berman presents selected aspects of social change among the Bedouin who live in the Beersheba region of southern Israel. "Social Hinterlands of New York City and Boston in Southern New England," by David E. Berle presents a study to measure the relative extent of selected Boston and New York City social influences on people living in part of their common hinterland. "Rural Settlement Types and the Change in Land Reclamation System in Taiwan" by Chi-Jen Chang analyzes the two basic settlement types, dispersed and compact in Taiwan.
