A Doorway to understanding Global Geographies.

I study Human Geography and for a long time I have been searching for a book such as this. The Geo-economic,political,social,cultural and environmental characteristics of global change are all explored and organised into 5 doorways. I found that the chapter on Geo-Politics was exceptionally good going deeply into the Cold War and the Welfare State. My enthusiasm for this text is not only from what it says but how it has said it. It is clearly written and provides a succinct commentary, making a very good book for anybody interested in Globalistation or for first year students studying it.
