Demonstrating that there is more to geography than is revealed by satnavs and mobile phones, the first part of this book covers the natural world: the water cycle, rivers and oceans, climate, and the influence of tectonic plates on earthquakes and volcanoes. The second deals with the human issues of population, migration, the location of cities, industry, and development.
Have you forgotten all you ever learned about the essentials of climate and weather? Barely remember what a tectonic plate is and what it does? In this book you'll find the answers to these questions and many more - broken down into fascinating bite-sized chunks.
Written in a highly accessible and engaging style, the subject is broken down into fundamental topics including the physical world, the human world, global issues, climate change, industry and the hydrological cycle. As a concise guide to key geographical topics, this book is the perfect starting point for anyone who is curious and concerned about planet earth, or who just wants to refresh the long-forgotten knowledge they learned at school.
