"Population, Food Supply, and Energy Development" presents case studies dealingwith rapid population growth and agriculture in Egypt; and oil revenue, Muslim life, and new industries in Oman. The series explores the eleven major geographical realms of the world and how they are interconnected, combining perspectives from physical, political, historical, economic, and cultural geography. Case studies and state-of-the-art computer-generated maps and animation help illuminate concepts. Noted geographer H.J. de Blij provides geographic analysis. |
