Abstract：Fieldwork is an important method in geography and one of geographical traditions. Although it is very difficult to inquire the relationship between methodology and methods on fieldwork, human geographers have started to focus on it. The Chinese book, "Fieldwork Methods in Human Geography" edited by Prof. Zhou Shangyi, not only explores this issue, but introduces many methods and cases on fieldwork. Because methodology is concerned about practice of discipline, it can and must conduct fieldwork. As a kind of technique and art, works on human geography should be "IUPA", which means interesting, useful, powerful, and aesthetic.
