NEW EDITION
Geographies of Global Change
Remapping the World
Second Edition
Edited by R.J. Johnston, Peter J. Taylor & Michael J. Watts
"This is an excellent collection which more than maintains the high
standards of the first edition... it has been expanded and revised to take
into account changes over the last six years, changes that are substantive
in character, as well as changes in emphasis in the ongoing and broader
debate about globalization. Always clear in its arguments, it takes the
fertile theme of globalization in all its variety of expression, to
demonstrate the many and nuanced ways in which geography matters. It will
appeal particularly to undergraduates but it is a book from which we can
all learn something." Kevin Cox, Ohio State University.

NEW EDITION
The Student’s Companion to Geography
Second Edition
Edited by Alisdair Rogers and Heather Viles
''The second edition of The Student's Companion to Geography provides a
comprehensive guide to the discipline throughout the English-speaking
world. The authorship contains a welcome mix of old and young, and the
style is refreshing throughout. The content is, of course, extremely wide
ranging and will prove very helpful to anyone wishing to “get started” on
some aspect of the subject. The coverage underlines the rich variety within
the subject and proves without doubt that geography does matter!''

Geographies of Health
An Introduction
Anthony C. Gatrell
"Tony Gatrell's breadth of knowledge of the field of health geography is, I
believe, unparalleled. His ability to write for a lay audience is
exemplary. His use of copious examples from the widest variety of settings
is refreshingly novel and the two dozen pages of references display the
geographical and temporal extent of study that have gone into creating this
book." Environment and Planning
