We would like to pause here to recognize the contribution to geography education, research, and scholarship in the Caribbean of outstanding geographer Professor David Barker. Professor Barker has put in nearly 40 years of dedicated service to the development of geography in the Caribbean through his teaching, research and scholarship, and, perhaps most importantly, guidance and mentorship of numerous graduate students. Professor Barker has influenced all of the contributors to this volume in some way with most of them benefitting from his mentorship in their graduate studies.
