The Geography of the World Economy

The Geography of the World Economy provides an in-depth introduction to the globalisation of the world economy, and discusses local, regional, national and global economic development over the course of history. This historical approach provides the basis for understanding the economic interactions of both industrialised and developing countries. This new edition has been completely revised and updated to provide a full analysis of the major changes in the world economy in recent years. With the text clearly signposted for students, and including full-colour maps, diagrams and illustrations, it is ideal for undergraduate students of economic geography or development studies.
