Synopsis

Human Geography: Places and Regions in Global Context  remains unsurpassed as the only textbook to provide up-to-date human geography material within a Canadian and global context. This third Canadian edition continues this tradition, providing instructors with more tools to help their students understand the continuously changing world.

 

The third edition of Human Geography has been updated to include expanded content on economic geography, globalization, climate change, and gender and cultural identities. The new “Human Geography and Climate Change” textboxes tie together a number of key factors to clearly outline the relationship between human development and the changing climate. Another compelling new feature is the series of audio interviews between the author and prominent Canadian human geographers, which provide students with vital insight into the applied practice of their studies. These changes reflect the authors’ exciting contemporary approach: to give people and places meaning by covering compelling topics that integrate today's local, regional, and global perspectives.
