A New Geography of Wales is a fresh and up-to-date examination of the human and physical geography of Wales today. It looks at Wales as a distinct nation, as well as considering its wider role in Britain and Europe. The author introduces the book by looking at people's image of Wales, and the factors which affect their perceptions. He then examines in depth the key themes of population, settlement, physical landscape, agriculture, industry, tourism and leisure. The decline of Wales's traditional industrial base and plans for future development are among the areas explored. Current issues such as the environment, second-home ownership, and the Welsh language are also addressed through a lively range of text, newspaper extracts, statistics and illustrations.
