The Power of Geography
Ten Maps That Reveal the Future of Our World
-THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER – NOW WITH A BRAND NEW FOREWORD exploring the fate of the middle powers in a turbulent geopolitical landscape.*'I can't imagine reading a better book this year' Daily MirrorTim Marshall's global bestseller Prisoners of Geography showed how every nation's choices are limited by mountains, rivers, seas and concrete. Since then, the geography hasn't changed. But the world has. In The Power of Geography, Marshall explores ten regions that are set to shape global politics: Australia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, the UK, Greece, Turkey, the Sahel, Ethiopia, Spain and Space. Find out why Europe's next refugee crisis is closer than it thinks as trouble brews in the Sahel; why the Middle East must look beyond oil and sand to secure its future; why the Strait of Hormuz makes Iran a key global player; and why the Earth's atmosphere is set to become the world's next battleground. Now with a new extended foreword covering the cracks in NATO, the new Cold War between the USA and China, and the shifting nature of alliances in a world where the old certainties have fallen away, Tim Marshall explores how countries such as the UK, Iran and Saudi Arabia must make crucial decisions in this new era of great-power rivalry. Delivered with Marshall's trademark wit and insight, this is a lucid and gripping exploration of the power of geography to shape humanity's past, present – and future.

Marshall is a master at explaining what you need to know and why.' Peter Frankopan
