Synopsis
Provides a comprehensive overview of geography. Like its predecessors, this fourth edition is organized around the major research traditions of geography: physical, cultural, locational and regional. The logical interconnection of these parts is also stressed. Within these major themes, the topics discussed include: the weather and climate; population geography; urban geography; political geography and economic geography. This edition has been fully revised and updated to reflect changes in both the different topical areas of geography and recent dramatic changes in world political and economic circumstances. Many of the maps have been revised or replaced to include the latest national boundaries. An appendix includes a modified version of the 1993 World Population Data Sheet of the Population Reference Bureau.

Présentation de l'éditeur
Introduction to Geography, 13th edition, by Getis and Getis introduces college students to the breadth and spatial insights of the field of geography. The authors' approach allows the major research traditions of geography to dictate the principal themes. They also include information on current events, such as the earthquake in Haiti. Chapter 1 introduces students to the four organizing traditions that have emerged through the long history of geographical thought and writing: earth science, culture-environment, location, and area analysis. Each of the four parts of this book centers on one of these geographic perspectives.
