Human Geography: People, Cultures, and Landscapes

This text for the human or cultural geography course focuses on relevant global issues that concern geographers and make today's headlines. These issues, including ethnic tensions, population, economic development, urbanization and the environment, are intended to inspire nonmajors and majors to develop a geographic worldview. Central to the text is a beautiful art program designed to complement the text and bring the student close to the language of geography through its generous use of maps.
