World Regional Geography by Lydia Mihelic Pulsipher
The third edition of this revolutionary and innovative text shows how individuals are affected by, and respond to, economic, social, and political forces at all levels of scale: global, regional and local. It offers a vivid and inclusive picture of people in a globalizing world - men, women, children, both mainstream and marginalized citizens - not as seen from a western perspective, but as they see themselves. Core topics of physical, economic, cultural, and political geography are examined from a contemporary perspective, based on authoritative insights from recent geographic theory and examples from countries from around the world.
