Since then, the geography hasn’t changed, but the world has.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eNow, in this “wonderfully entertaining and lucid account, written with wit, pace, and clarity” (\u003ci\u003eMirror\u003c\/i\u003e, UK), Marshall takes us into ten regions set to shape global politics. Find out why US interest in the Middle East will wane; why Australia is now beginning an epic contest with China; how Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and the UK are cleverly positioning themselves for greater power; why Ethiopia can control Egypt; and why Europe’s next refugee crisis looms closer than we think, as does a cutting-edge arms race to control space.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eInnovative, compelling, and delivered with Marshall’s trademark wit and insight, this is “an immersive blend of history, economics, and political analysis that puts geography at the center of human affairs” (\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e).","brand":"Simon and Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54968019255369,"sku":null,"price":13.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/5336\/3785\/files\/20395883482893.jpg?v=1764643296","url":"https:\/\/morebetterbooks.com\/products\/the-power-of-geography-ten-maps-that-reveal-the-future-of-our-world","provider":"More Better Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
