HUMAN GEOGRAPHY: A SPATIAL PERSPECTIVE, First Edition, is an accessible and thought-provoking exploration of geographic thinking, providing context for the exciting field of human geography within the broader discipline.
Introductory chapters on the power of geographic thinking and methods of inquiry are followed by six units that span the core patterns and processes of human geography: population and migration, concepts of culture, spatial aspects of political behavior, agriculture and rural land use, cities and urban landscapes and industrial and economic development. Each chapter includes relevant maps, models, case studies and features that profile the amazing work of National Geographic Explorers, fellows, writers and photographers--all in support of the geographic content presented.
In addition, plentiful and engaging maps clearly show the power of the spatial perspective, and the authors focus consistent attention on the impacts of globalization and on human-environment interaction, including climate change and sustainability.
