THE POWER OF PLACE
Connect with a representative to create a custom curriculum for your district.
Geography is destiny, insists author Harm de Blij, who shows that the world is "rugged terrain" in which physical and cultural barriers create situational differences that determine what access people have to resources and opportunities.
Chapters address language, religion, health, barriers to migration, the risk of natural disasters, and cities versus provinces; a final chapter brainstorms how to open the way to new opportunities.
