Overview
You can’t navigate human geography, if you can’t read the maps.
This full-color interactive web based workbook uses cartographic visualization as an approach to using maps as tools for both the exploration and representation of geographic ideas.
Synopsis
Map exercises and activities introduce geography students to maps and tools for exploring and presenting ideas in human geography. One geographic theme is explored per chapter, and exercises are presented on fundamentals of map interpretation, using maps for exploring different representations of spatial data, and using maps to depict the human dimension. Key terms, Web exercises, and color maps are included. Pearce is affiliated with Western Michigan University. The book is intended as a complement to The Human Mosaic, 9th ed., but also suitable alone or as a supplement to other texts. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
