Synopsis

This text "populates" the world geographic landscape: it seeks to make geography real to students by emphasizing individual lives, showing how individuals respond to economic, social and political forces. To paint a more vivid and complete picture of lives in a changing world, the book extends the traditional coverage of physical, economics and political geography by also exploring family life and gender roles. The accompanying Student CD-ROM provides a sense of place by providing 500 "National Geographic" regional images from around the world as well as recipes from regional cuisines and a spoken pronunciation guide of place names, regional terms and biographical names. Interactive map exercises, thematic map overlays and a self-quizzing feature enable the student to brush up on place location and sharpen his or her ability to analyze geographic material. There is also an on-line Student Companion which includes such things as language excerpts; animations; chapter objectives; Q&A; "drag & drop" map exercises; and key terms.
