Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. UPDATED TO REFLECT CURRENT EVENTS! In this fascinating New York Times bestseller--fully revised to reflect the events of our current world--award-winning journalist Tim Marshall uses ten maps of crucial regions to explain how physical landscapes influence geopolitical strategies of world leaders, showing "how geography shapes not just history but destiny" (Newsweek). Maps have always captivated us, offering insights not only into our destinations but also into the broader world. Yet, when it comes to understanding geopolitics, many overlook the fundamental role of geography. All leaders of nations are constrained by geography--their choices limited by mountains, rivers, deserts, and seas. Now in "one of the best books about geopolitics" (The Evening Standard)--journalist Tim Marshall reveals the profound influence of geography on global politics, offering a compelling lens through which to understand the seismic shifts reshaping international relations. Through ten up-to-date maps, Marshall explores the landscapes and climates that constrain and empower nations across key parts of the globe, from Russia's vast tundras to China's mountainous borders, Africa's deserts to the Arctic's shifting ice. Taking a deep dive into the key flashpoints defining our world today--including the Russia-Ukraine war and the ongoing Israel-Gaza conflict--Marshall unpacks the shifting dynamics of the New Middle East, China's bold moves to expand its global influence, including its growing interest in Taiwan, and how America's pivot to the Pacific is reshaping alliances. And Europe's tilt towards extreme politics, increased defense spending, and the future role of NATO, paint a dramatic picture of a continent in flux. An essential read for anyone interested in the interplay between geography and global politics, this fully revised edition of Prisoners of Geography offers a vivid look at the forces driving our increasingly complex world.…

Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveränderung. All leaders are constrained by geography. Their choices are limited by mountains, rivers, seas and concrete. Yes, to understand world events you need to understand people, ideas and movements - but if you don't know geography, you'll never have the full picture. To understand Putin's actions, for example, it is essential to consider that, to be a world power, Russia must have a navy. And if its ports freeze for six months each year then it must have access to a warm water port - hence, the annexation of Crimea was the only option for Putin. To understand the Middle East, it is crucial to know that geography is the reason why countries have logically been shaped as they are - and this is why invented countries (e.g. Syria, Iraq, Libya) will not survive as nation states. Spread over ten chapters (covering Russia; China; the USA; Latin America; the Middle East; Africa; India and Pakistan; Europe; Japan and Korea; and Greenland and the Arctic), using maps, essays and occasionally the personal experiences of the widely traveled author, Prisoners of Geography looks at the past, present and future to offer an essential guide to one of the major determining factors in world history.…
