All leaders are constrained by geography. Their choices are limited by mountains, rivers, seas and concrete. Yes, to follow world events you need to understand people, ideas and movements - but if you don't know geography, you'll never have the full picture. In ten chapters and ten maps, bestselling author and geopolitics expert Tim Marshall looks at the past, present and future to offer crucial insights into one of the major factors that determines world history. This edition brings the classic text up to date with the events and trends of the past decade, with new material including: the Russia-Ukraine war and Moscow's alliances with authoritarian states; the conflicts in the Middle East; China's growing military and strategic power, and its stance on Taiwan; and more.
