A distinctly modern look at human geography

Described as "fresh, innovative, and intelligent," Human Geography: Places and Regions in Global Context is acclaimed for its global approach, conceptual rigor, engaging real-world applications, and outstanding visual program. Knox and Marston foster awareness of current issues and developing trends from a geographic perspective, and provide a solid foundation in the fundamentals of human geography.

Human Georgaphy book

The book came in perfect condition. However, I wish that it would have come on the day it was supposed to come on.

Wonderful book

This textbook is very easy to follow. I am glad that I purchased this book.

A very understandable book for educational purposes

This book was very easy to read, the examples made clear sense to the topic. It would be nice if your web site address was easy to find, it was not stated in the book.
