World Geography and Cultures, Student Edition (GLENCOE WORLD GEOGRAPHY)

I really like the depth of information and how it is presented in this geography/social studies text book. The textbook is over 850 pages of well organized and thoughtful information- it’s a big, heavy book! I like the many detailed maps and info-graphics that are included in the text, the review questions in the several sections that make up each chapter, as well as the standardized test practice questions after each chapter. There are many brightly colored photographs, charts and examples which helps make the text more engaging and relevant. I especially like the many pages of critical thinking skills that we can review for understanding and practice included in the reference section of this book, it will help us review these concepts in many ways, from interpreting the graphic information, learning to draw conclusions, comparing and contrasting information, detecting bias, and analyzing primary sources- all really important skills to have when learning from a single source and learning to research. I originally bought this textbook for my daughter’s 6th-7th grade homeschool geography course (she’s 11, but more advanced in some areas), but after reviewing the book I will save it for high school level geography when she’s around 13-14 years old. It’s definitely above her level right now, even though I feel she would enjoy and understand it, I believe it would be more valuable for her to study it when she’s a little more academically mature, die to the depth and scope of information. I look forward to going though it with her in a couple years!

I purchased this because I had professor Boehm for several geography courses in college long ago. As an adult, it is a very easy read. Gives me a chance to see what is being given to high school students these days.

I bought this book for my child to have a copy at home so she did not have to drag books back and forth. Quality of the book is exactly as described, and delivery was prompt. Great Seller!

Thanks so much for the quick delivery of this book. It is in great condition. We all love the book

Very useful book, my son enjoyed his Geography.

Ordering this book has helped my child be able to study for class work on World Geography and cultures at home!

Perfect reference book for my son.
