As its new, elaborated title suggests, The World Today: Concepts and Regions in Geography focuses on the geography of the world toward the close of the first decade of the twenty-first century and serves as a guide to geographic ideas and perspectives, past and present.
Authors H. J. de Blij and Peter Muller continue in their tradition of providing authoritative content, currency, and outstanding cartography in a concise, technology-rich package with the third edition of The World Today: Concepts and Regions in Geography. Thoroughly updated, the third edition includes a new, engaging and currency-driven photo program, expanded data, and a new chapter feature--What's Driving Geographic Change in the Realm.

Summary: My students hate this book....sadly, so do I
Comment: Far too many of my students have complained that this book is disjointed - no flow for topics. I agree with them. I've had to add a ton of relevant info, piece together the sub-topics in chapters, add relevant maps, ad nauseum. Also, the text bank is the worst (if you're an instructor/professor, the test bank can be helpful. The one accompanying this book is a proctological exam - typos, questions that aren't even in the text, etc.) The Power Points that accompany the text are a mess - typos and a graphics nightmare. I won't use this textbook again.
