Contemporary Human Geography 2nd Edition by James M. Rubenstein explores current human geography in the bold visual style that distinguishes Dorling Kindersley (DK) publications. Topics within each chapter are organized into modular, self-contained, two-page spreads. Together with the graphics, Rubenstein’s efficient writing engages students, presenting information clearly without sacrificing the high-quality geography content essential to students and instructors.

It is a beautifully crafted, modular springboard into essential human and cultural geography concepts, designed for the contemporary geography student. It augments this visually stunning book with integration of rich new media, the support of the MasteringGeography platform, and robust instructor resource support. This revision also offers an updated cartography program, new pedagogical tools to help guide students, and the latest data and applications.

A modern integration of precise maps, carefully crafted prose, informational illustrations, and vivid photographs propels students off the page and into a real-world visual and intellectual understanding of the principles outlined in the text. The book's modular organization consists of chapters made up of self-contained two-page spreads, a reliable presentation that gives the instructor flexibility when assigning material to students.

The unique DK-style format provides unparalleled clarity while adding excitement to tried and true, first-rate geographic analysis. The book's brief format features carefully selected topics that will provide a springboard to each individual professor's human geography course. Real institutions, businesses, and people add relevancy to photographic references, instilling in students a sense of place and providing a personal connection to facts, concepts, and illustrations presented on the page.

Chapter 1 has been expanded to include a new "Welcome to Geography" module. All images have been carefully chosen and included to complement and expand upon the content, providing a balanced presentation of visual imagery and text. Enhanced continuity and connections in the narrative in the new edition tie together modules to provide a cohesive story and connect the narrative from chapter to chapter. The NEW Looking Ahead End-of-Chapter feature also previews chapter material to highlight connections between chapters.
