What can I say? It's a textbook. It's dense and full of material. Did I learn from it? Yes, actually, which I suppose means that it did its job. Good job!

I just loved this book. As a geographer I really enjoyed reading this. It was nicely structured and easy to read. I really recommend this book to anyone even middly interested in world regions and how they are structured

I'm not a huge fan of the way this is organized.

[Susan · Rating 4 out of 5]

Really interesting and easy to read textbook. Provides a lot of information about world cultures as well as geographic formations, etc.

[Darren · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a pretty good textbook but it needs a ton of updating. For example, Osama Bin Laden was killed over five years ago and in this book it talks about trying to find him.
