1. Introduction -- 2. Europe -- 3. Russia -- 4. North America -- 5. Middle and South America -- 6. Sub-Saharan Africa -- 7. North Africa and Southwest Asia -- 8. South Asia -- 9. East and Southeast Asia -- 10. Oceania.
Summary: Rather than present students with a broad, novice-level introduction to geography, emphasizing places and vocabulary terms, this text approaches geography as experts understand the discipline, focusing on connections and an in-depth understanding of core themes. This thematic approach, informed by pedagogical research, provides students with an introduction to thinking geographically. Instead of repeating the same several themes each chapter, this text emphasizes depth over breadth by arranging each chapter around a central theme and then exploring that theme in detail as it applies to the particular region. In addition, while chapters are designed to stand alone and be rearranged or eliminated at the instructor's discretion, the theme of globalization and inequality unites all of the regions discussed. This core focus enables students to draw connections between regions and to better understand the interconnectedness of our world.
