Globalisation : Access to Geography

The Access to Geography series provides concise and readable introductions to Geography topics for both the student and the general reader. This title promotes an in-depth and current understanding of the issues and themes that define the topic. Opening with coverage of the global economy, the author assesses globalisation and changing economic activity, the impact that transnational corporations have had on countries and regions, the role of newly industrialised countries in the global economy and the likely nature of the world's economy in the future. The study guides provide a firm basis for developing the skills required by the AS and A level specifications.
