Human Geography for the AP® Course
Grades 9–12
Course: AP Human Geography
Teach students to appreciate the diversity of people, places, and cultures, and understand the role people play in shaping our world. The goals of this edition are to provide geographic context to global, regional, national, and local issues and to teach students to think geographically and critically about these issues.
Beautifully designed maps, dozens of vibrant photographs taken by the author team, and author and guest field notes help students see how geographers read cultural landscapes and use fieldwork to understand places.
