This core text on economic geography from acclaimed scholar Barney Warf provides students an accessible, balanced, and concise overview of why location matters in business and economics.
Offering numerous U.S. based examples, Economic Geography drives home concepts while being engaging and relevant for students. Warf explores all aspects of the economy, from developmetn and globalization, agriculture and manufacturing, to e-commerce and retail. Each chapter ends with a set of defined glossary terms, study questions, and suggested readings, to encourage further student engagement. The full color art program boasts over 100 figures, illustrating examples for better learning retention. Students will leave with an understanding that capitalism as we understand it today is not inevitable, but rather resulting from historical and contextual factors.
