The New Global Order: A World Regional Geography focuses on the geographic nature of the forces at work for change in the world, including political, economic, cultural and environmental aspects. It emphasizes the dynamic nature of geographic regions in a changing world and the interdependence of the regions around the world, rather than cataloging their differences. It alerts readers to expect continuing change and encourages personal involvement with the changing world. Bradshaw focuses initial attention on the developmental problems of the poorer countries instead of imposing a Western model of development that is uncritically applied to the rest of the world.

Contemporary World Regional Geography

Contemporary World Regional Geography provides a current, balanced geographical study of world issues through analysis of ten world regions and the countries in each. It integrates the themes of "global connections" and "local voices" and utilizes a consistent structure within each chapter. Per reviewer requests, each chapter is now organized to begin with environmental issues of the region followed by historical geography, global and local issues and economic, political, cultural, and social issues. The greatest advantage of the new organization is that students will be able to easily compare one region with another to understand similarities and differences.
