Globalization and Difersity:Geography of a Changing world

It is a college textbook. I found it more readable than most on the subject. The information is current and appropriate. The book is divided up into chapters based on regions. There are helpful guides and study notes. It is good for use at the community college level.

For A Textbook, It's Pretty Interesting.

This book is very interesting and makes the subject of Geography interesting down to the micro level. It's packed with helpful photographs, charts, maps, and sidebars that any student should find helpful as they begin to explore this beautiful and diverse world we live in. The only drawbacks I've discovered so far are that the colors on the maps don't always match the legends provided. And the type is condensed. It's not hard to read, but it usually takes longer than anticipated. Also, if you need to use the online features, you need to purchase your book new. Still waiting to hear from the publishers as to what, if anything, purchasers of used products can do. However, of all the books my Professor could have chosen, I am definitely glad she picked this one. It is divided into 12 world regions, each of which has a separate chapter. It makes cross-referencing information for reports and studying for exams much easier.

quick shipment, great condition

seller was very polite, and got the book out to me in time for class. would definitely buy again, highly recommend!
