Product Description
OVERVIEW
Essentials of World Regional Geography, Third Edition, is designed for use in a one or two term introductory world regional geography course. Kit Salter and Joe Hobbs build the story of each region using contemporary concerns and historical themes to create a complete picture of our ever-changing planet and its people. The authors help students understand what aspects of a place give it identity and personality by detailing what features make it newsworthy now and what features might make it critical in the 21st century. The third edition gives strong attention to the phenomenon of globalization.

If you're looking for something to help you get started in geography, this is the ticket. But if you're attempting to explore more in-depth realms of geography (nature vs nurture) this book will be of little help in getting you on your way. Though it aids in basic understanding of why people in different regions can be different culturally, no one book can adequately encompass the volume of information required to assess such information on a global scale. Feel free to use this book for an elementary college geography class.
