Biographie de l'auteur :

Dr. James M. Rubenstein received his Ph.D. from Johns Hopkins University in 1975. His dissertation on French urban planning was later developed into a book entitled The French New Towns (Johns Hopkins University Press). In 1976 he joined the faculty at Miami University, where he is currently Professor of Geography and Chair of the Department of Geography. Besides teaching courses on Urban and Human Geography and writing textbooks, Dr. Rubenstein also conducts research in the automotive industry and has published two books on the subject entitled The Changing U.S. Auto Industry: A Geographical Analysis (Routledge) and Making and Selling Cars: Innovation and Change in the U.S. Auto Industry (The Johns Hopkins University Press). Originally from Baltimore, he is an avid Orioles fan. Stormy, a lab-pointer mix, takes Dr. Rubenstein for a long walk in the woods every day.

This book is dedicated to Bernadette Unger, Dr. Rubenstein's wife, who has stuck with him through thick and thin. Dr. Rubenstein also gratefully thanks the rest of his family for their love and support.

Pr�sentation de l'�diteur :

For introductory courses in Human Geography or Cultural Geography.

The purpose of the updated Seventh Edition is to provide professors and students with a human geography textbook that contains materials about recent world events triggered by the September 11th attacks on New York City and Washington D.C. The text has an established track record as the leader in the field due to its sound pedagogy, timeliness, and readability. It is widely adopted and praised because it is clearly written and organized, up-to-date, and approaches topics in ways that appeal to the majority of introductory human geography instructors and students.
