Reinforce real-world connections

Introduction to Geography: People, Places, & Environment introduces students to the major tools, techniques, and methodological approaches of the discipline through new applied and visual features that engage students and reinforce real-world connections. The authors emphasise the integration of various aspects of geographic processes and systems by discussing what happens in one set of geographic processes and how that affects others. For example, what happens in economic systems affects environmental conditions; what happens to climate affects political dynamics.

Great glossary in the back with verydetailed index pages on all topics. I like how this textbook gives a lot of references back to previously covered concepts. Although this can also be a negative if you are not following chapter to chapter

I was using this book for an introduction to geography course. The book arrived and was in terrible condition. It’s missing several pages which caused me to not be able to do some assignments and I had to actually borrow a book from a friend so that I didn’t miss out on the content. Not only was the book missing pages, most of the pages weren’t even connected to the book and were loose so they just fall out whenever. Additionally, some of the pages were either super glued or hot glued so they are so stuck together I can’t read some things. Absolutely awful. I’ve never had a book rental be in such bad condition. I would never recommend renting this. I paid nearly $30 for this book just to rent it and I would never rent it again for more than a few dollars that’s how bad it is.
