World Regional Geography [Paperback]

Coupled with MindTap's wealth of interactive study tools and ArcGIS-powered mapping activities, Hobbs' WORLD REGIONAL GEOGRAPHY, 7th Edition, introduces students to the eight world regions using the historical, cultural, economic, political and physical context that makes each unique -- and newsworthy. A new method of combining ethnic and linguistic geographies offers increased learning support. Packed with updated and newly designed maps, the 7th edition includes more detailed land use and land cover maps for each region, increased coverage of the impact of human interaction on geography and new discussions on UN Sustainable Development Goals, the refugee crisis, Brexit and COVID-19's impact on economic and migration patterns. This comprehensive text for one semester/quarter courses makes it easier than ever to bolster student understanding of geography-related concepts.1.
