About this book

Geography encompasses far more than naming countries or memorizing capitals. It serves as a foundation for multiple disciplines including meteorology, ecology, geology, oceanography, demographics, cartography, agricultural studies, economics, and political science. Many people lack substantial knowledge in this area. Kenneth C. Davis explores geography through geographical trivia alongside 21st-century global topics. These include the role of the Internet and technology in transforming lives worldwide, how developing nations develop, sustainability, and debates over climate change and evolutionary science. This completely revised and updated version of Don't Know Much About Geography offers a comprehensive overview of planet Earth.
