Beginning with a discussion on how maps are made and then continuing into a explanation of the various physical structures, climates, and how these affect the populations of the world, this book is an unparalleled resource for the student geographer. Each continent is first looked at as a whole entity and then broken down into its respective regions. As each different region is considered, information is given on the type of industry found there, the climate, the population density, and any other important environmental concerns. It also includes a comprehensive index and flags of the world listed by continent. Hardcover, 160 pages.
