内容説明
The best-selling Human Geography is back in a highly-anticipated seventh edition. Introducing students not only to the field's core concepts and methodologies, but also to its history, the text shows how the discipline has evolved and continues to develop in response to new findings and perspectives. Written and developed with passion and integrity, the text is an extension of William Norton's ongoing commitment to education and his students. This new edition retains the strengths of earlier editions while incorporating new research and statistical data throughout. Current, engaging, and accessible, Human Geography is a fascinating introduction to the field.
