Alone
among books for the regional geography course, Pulsipher and
Pulsipher’s World Regional Geography humanizes geographical issues,
showing how larger geographical forces affect the lives of individuals
and communities around the globe. Students explore the field's defining
concepts by focusing on the stories of real people, global trends and
interregional linkages, and contemporary topics that transcend regional
borders (the war on terrorism, global political order, interregional
trade, the global economy, popular culture, the environment, and the
Internet).
Along with a thorough updating, this edition
introduces several new features that will help students explore
geography across regions, while enhancing the book's standing as the
most highly visual textbook for the world regional course. In
addition, W. H. Freeman is proud to announce LaunchPad for
Pulsipher/Pulsipher, World Regional Geography, the only online
course/homework system for geography to feature adaptive quizzing—via
Freeman's highly acclaimed LearningCurve.
