Don't Know Much About® Geography: Revised and Updated Edition: Don't Know Much About Series
Autor Kenneth C Davisen Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 mai 2013
Geography is the hub from which other disciplines radiate: meteorology, ecology, geology, oceanography, demographics, cartography, agricultural studies, economics, and political science.
In addition to presenting geographical trivia that’ll impress your friends, Davis explores 21st-century topics of global concern, including the role of the Internet and technology in transforming the lives of people around the world, how so-called developing nations develop, sustainability, and the debates over climate change and evolutionary science.
This completely revised and updated version of Don't Know Much About Geography is an entertaining and illuminating grand tour of planet Earth.
