It is important that students keep up with the new global order as we enter a new century. As international travel, communications, trade, and political agreements expand their involvement with the world, it will be important for students to gain a sound knowledge of world geography and of how local regions relate to the global context. Bradshaw’s World Regional Geography addresses the impact of global forces on regional activities and provides straightforward comparisons of one region to another. Reinforced with updated content, exceptional learning aids and visuals, (more than 556) this text will give a course the impact it needs to get students excited about world geography.

"I think that this revision is a vast improvement – there is a lot of information to be absorbed and this is a better way to organize it. There are many concepts explored in each of the chapters but I do believe that the progression is good so that the ideas flow and the total is understandable. I like the recap boxes – I think they work better than critical thinking questions listed at the end of a chapter because they address the relevant issues while the concepts are still clear in the students’ minds. The questions themselves seem well thought out and appropriate. I am very happy with the Bradshaw book and I think these improvements will serve to make the next edition even stronger."

"The author does a good job of connecting the text with current events. Tropical deforestation, the El Nino weather phenomena, NAFTA, the European Union are well covered."
– Michael Camille, Northeast Louisiana University

"I like the changes the author has made. I feel the chapters are much more focused and connected. They appear to be nicely broken down by subtitles, bullets, etc. The headings are interesting, and the organization of the chapters lively. All these changes will be very attractive to students and will interest them to read."
– Max Lu, Kansas State University
