This resource has been comprehensively updated to cover the current CCEA AS Geography specification.

It has been through a thorough quality assurance process and is endorsed by CCEA.

Following the same content as the specification, the text is illustrated throughout with full colour maps, graphs, photographs and diagrams. It also features questions of examination standard and a glossary of key terms.

In line with the specification, both local and global case studies are included to give students a well-rounded understanding of the scope of geographical issues.
