Essentials of World Regional Geography

This edition focuses on the phenomenon of globalization. This perspective has been prompted in large part by the almost worldwide financial crisis that began in Southeast Asia in 1997, swept much of Asia in the following year, and rocked Russia in 1998. The authors anticipate that social and political unrest and impacts on the global exchange of ideas, goods, and services prompted by this economic turmoil will have long-lived effects. Students, therefore, will benefit greatly from the currency of this text.Christopher L. Salter is the author of 'Essentials of World Regional Geography' with ISBN 9780030259845 and ISBN 0030259843.
