paperback. Condición: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. This is the second of a five-book series which offers a forward-looking, broad-based course in human geography. The building blocks of a 'geographical imagination' are presented through some of the principal forces that are shaping the world as it approaches the twenty-first century. Each book develops different aspects of the geographical imagination, using a mixture of text and readings, through which the authors teach what it is to think geographically. The issues that are explored are at the forefront of global and local relations. In recent years there has been much talk of a world that is progressively shrinking as developments in communications and travel increase the pace of life and disrupt our sense of distance. For many, this is the language of globalization: of a world smaller in size, characterized by closer ties and connections, where places once thought of as far apart are no longer so. This volume offers a critical introduction to these ideas, one which requires us to rethink our notions of distance and movement, as well as the very nature of social space itself. Starting with the revolutions in transport and communications, the book sets the context within which much of the discussion around the shrinking of the globe takes place. The contributors then go on to examine the implications of a shrinking globe for the worlds of money and finance, and for multinational and transnational firms, and the role played by global cities. Transnational pollution and global tourism are also explored for the manner in which they too often shrink the the world in sometimes unexpected and unpredictable ways. Throughout, attention is drawn to the unevenness and inequality built into global relationships and processes. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
