Welcome to the Companion Website for China’s Geography: Globalization and the Dynamics of Political, Economic, and Social Change, Fourth Edition by Gregory Veeck; Clifton W. Pannell; Xiaoping Shen, and Youqin Huang.
This thoroughly revised and updated edition offers a comprehensive survey of contemporary China, tracing the changes occurring in this powerful and ancient nation across both time and space. Beginning with China's diverse landscapes and environments, and continuing through its formative history and tumultuous recent past, the authors show contemporary China as a product of both internal and external forces. They consider past and present successes and difficulties, including environmental challenges, while placing China in its international context as a massive, still-developing nation that must meet the needs of its 1.4 billion citizens while becoming an aggressive major regional and global player.
This open-access Companion Website includes full-color versions of all the graphics, along with a number of additional maps and data files in Excel that can be used for class exercises or as the basis for student research papers and presentations. Instructor-only access includes sample lectures and learning objectives for each chapter.
