One of eight titles in the Geography Principles series (series price: $450), Themes of Geography explores the five main themes that the National Geographic Society named as critical for categorizing and classification: location, place, relationships to a place, movement, and regions. Taking a more social than scientific approach to the subject, this program is a solid tool for communicating basic geographical ideas rooted in human inquisitiveness ("Where am I?" "Where are the objects I need to survive?"), with an emphasis on cultural aspects. The other titles in the series include: Physical Features of Earth, Civic Units, Global Problems, Soil & Vegetation, and Natural & Manmade Wonders. Recommended. Aud: I, J. (E. Gieschen)
