Human Geography and Professional Mobility
This book explores an innovative set of critical narratives, accounts and engagements by different authors about their professional mobility and how that relates to the discipline and their life experiences. Human Geography and Professional Mobility seeks to encourage, influence, and help students understand geographic concepts based on critical reflections, international experiences, and practical insight laid out in stories of real people, real geographers, and real college faculty, that students can relate to. This volume is less theoretical and more personal insight-based, wherein first-hand and personal accounts of practical experiences are explored, which renders the text supplementary reading for human geography, population geography, world geography, and migration/mobility classes. With critical navigation of spaces in response to several geographical questions, this book offers a novel perspective on professional mobility of geographers which will be of interest to students and academics in the fields of geography, tourism, sociology, and anthropology.
Towards Rethinking Brazil
As Brazil enters a new age and becomes an increasingly important regional and global participant, geographer Alan P. Marcus provides important and updated insights in his new book on this multifaceted country. He draws from multi-disciplinary approaches to explain key inter-relationships between regional, historical, and sociocultural elements which have shaped, and shape Brazil. Divided into three parts (thematic, regional, and case studies), Marcus offers various strategies to help understand the intersections between the physical and human geographies of Brazil. With a total of eight chapters, recent photos, graphs, maps, data from the Brazilian Census 2010, and three case studies, this book will be of interest to university students and faculty who are interested in Brazil and/or Latin American studies. Broadly-speaking, this book will also interest any reader who is interested in Brazil - especially since the collection of updated information in this format is not currently available anywhere else in the English language.
