Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Business Geography Modern geography has become a definite science. Its principles are so well defined that a knowledge of the physical conditions under which a race has lived and now lives gives a reasonably reliable indi cation as to the capacity, activity, Occupations, and business relap tions of that race. In studying this growing science the first step is to understand the main principles. That is the reason for Part I of this book. A second step is to apply the principles to concrete prob lems as is done in Part II. There the community engaged in a particular line of activity is taken as the unit in Order that the geographical relationships may first be studied in relatively simple forms before going on to the more complex regional studies of Parts III and IV. In the regional chapters the aim is to give a clear conception of the way in which geographic conditions influence the products of a region, the capacity of the people, the direction in which their activities are turned, and the nature and extent of their business relations with other regions.

In the regional chapters the aim is to give a clear conception of the way in which geographic conditions influence the products of a region, the capacity of the people, the direction in which their activities are turned, and the nature and extent of their business relations with other regions. The present book stands in an intermediate position between two books by Huntington and Gushing, namely Commercial and Industrial Geography (World Book Company), and Principles of Human Geography (John Wiley & Sons, Inc.). Although each is complete in itself and occupies a separate field, the three books form a connected series. If the students who use Business Geography have not already taken a course in Commercial Geography in the seventh, eighth or ninth grade, the teacher is advised to have them use the first of the books named above and some other books such as J.R. Smiths Commerce and Industry (Henry Holt & Co.), for supplementary reading. If the pupils are to get a thorough grounding in the broader principles of geography in general and thereby see how business geography is related to the physical, sociological, and political phases of the subject, the teacher is advised to supplement the present book with a course based on some one of the several textbooks that especially stress physiography, and on Principles of Human Geography, and Bowman's The New World (World Book Company).

Download or read book Geography Economics And Economic Geography written by Sher Singh Parmar and published by ASD Publications, Pune, India. This book was released on 2003-10-18 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As a young man, my fondest dream was to become a geographer. However, while working at the customs office, I thought deeply about the matter and concluded it was far too difficult a subject. I then turned to Physics as a substitute." Albert Einstein, great scientist is reported to have said in despair about Geography. The present series aptly titled “Geography Made Simple” is our humble attempt at removing fear of Geography subject from minds of students by presenting books that are written in lucid, simple and easy-to-understand language. The present eBook in full colours caters to needs of students of as diverse a field as Economic Geography, International Trade, Management, Economics, Political Economy, Commerce, Industrial Geography, Regional planning and development, International Business Management, Foreign Trade, International Finance, Trade and Transport Geography, etc. This evergreen book has stood the test of time since its first edition was published in October, 2002. This book is recommended as a reference-book by Geography teachers and used as a text-book by undergrads and postgraduate students even today. This second edition carries a 'Preface' by Jaiprakash Jadhav, Head of Geography Department, Dr. D. Y. Patil Arts, Commerce & Science College, Pimpri in Pune, India. Praise for Geography, Economics & Economic Geography “Hello, Parmar! Thanks for introducing the book of Economic Geography. I got it from my friend. I am modern college student of MA. I am Ram Shripati Payal.”-Ram Shripati Payal, student of Modern College, Pune “Hi there! I just clicked on the website where your book will appear next month. I will try to do it next month…as I’m teaching Economic Geography in the fall at CWU. I haven’t used a text in a couple of years because I didn’t like any on the market. Thanks for your help!”-Ms Nancy, Central Washington University Jaiprakash Jadhav, Head of Geography Department, Dr. D. Y. Patil Arts, Commerce & Science College, Pimpri had presented in 2003 a few hardcopies of this eBook to the members of national accreditation agency, the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) as the evidence of high quality of education at the College. He later personally acknowledged before Sher Singh Parmar that outstanding quality of his book made NAAC give a higher credible rating to Geography Department, Dr. D. Y. Patil Arts, Commerce & Science College. Noteworthy Features Possibly until the publication of the second edition of the book “Geography, Economics and Economic Geography” by Sher Singh Parmar in October, 2003, the Indian intelligentsia, Indian and the world mass media had not attributed the liberalization of the Indian economy to the Balance-of-Payment Crisis that India had faced in the year 1991. It was possibly for the first time in the world that this second edition by Sher Singh Parmar correctly pointed out, described and explained the balance-of-payment crisis faced by the Indian government in 1991 to be the main cause that had forced India into adopting the liberalization-mode for the Indian economy. The book contains for the first time many of the Economic terms/jargons that have been rephrased/paraphrased/elaborated/redefined/repurposed to make these Economic terms inclusive, better and more understandable. For example, see following definition of the term Trade included in this e-book: "10.2 BASIC CONCEPTS 1. TRADE: Exchange of goods, services or information." The definition of TRADE given above by Sher Singh Parmar is more inclusive than the following definition of TRADE that had been given until then in numerous Standard Texts/Books on subject of Economics: "TRADE: Exchange of goods" The book introduces altogether new fresh concepts called idealised perfectly balanced pentagonal model and realistic isostasically balanced amorphous model to understand economic landscapes. Author applies these two economic models to real life situations past and present to successfully build his thesis that "...even a slight imbalance in economic landscapes at any level is sufficient enough to engineer political and other problems. World peace may be achieved if the whole globe is developed into a perfectly balanced economic landscape." He brings in new insight to understand and appreciate dignity of labour in light of these new concepts. This new conceptual framework introduced by author definitely helps us understand and resolve present day problems in much better and peaceful ways. The book introduces new concepts of Economic Liberalization Model, Four Stages of Globalization model, and Tricellular LPG model. These models give us fresh incisive insight into vexing issues of Globalization, Liberalization, and Privatisation. Worth mentioning also is author's creative description, elaboration, and explanation of factors of international trade and business.

Download or read book Corporate Geography written by R. Laulajainen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate Geography examines the spatial structures and behaviour of large business organizations. Corporations are key operational units of economies. Each corporation has several locations and connections to suppliers and customers who also operate in geographical space. The effectiveness of corporate spatial organizations is of importance for their well-being and for the health of the national and local economies in which they operate. This volume discusses where and why firms locate units of production, sales and control and how these interact with each other, with suppliers and with customers. The foundations are from commercial geography, business economics and location theory, but there are some unique characteristics. One is the blending of manufacturing and retailing in one treatise. Another is the extensive use of real-company case studies which illustrate both the basic concepts and the inadequacies of existing models. Corporate managers can relate to the experiences of actual companies. This book is of interest to scientists, researchers and professionals in economic geography, business administration, general management, microeconomies, industrial organization and economic planning.

Download or read book Retail Change written by Rosemary D.F. Bromley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-11-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The economic, social and environmental implications of recent changes in retailing constitute significant contemporary issues, which are the focus of this timely book. Retail change deals with the internationalization of retailing, the development of shopping centres in the city and at suburban sites, and the growth of leisure shopping. It provides an up-to-date review of the central questions faced by undergraduate students in planning, business studies and geography. The retail environment of developed economies has undergone revolutionary change since the 1970s, and the process is far from over. In the book the major elements central to contemporary retail change are developed across the whole spectrum of spatial scales relevant to present-day society. The first part adopts an economic perspective and focuses on the process of business concentration and its increasingly international orientation. This is followed by analyses of change in the urban region, concentrating on the emergence of the great variety of new retail forms associated with retail decentralization. The planning implications of retail change are developed in the third part. The future of the city-centre and other traditional shopping centres is examined in the light of challenges presented by new facilities. Alternative future scenarios contingent upon laisser-faire or interventionist government policy controls are also discussed. The social implications of retail change are developed in the final section. All students and researchers concerned with the evolution and development of the retail sector of advanced economies will welcome this book as an authoritative source of contemporary findings and commentary. Rosemary D. Bromley and Colin J. Thomas are Lecturers in Geography at the University College of Swansea, Wales.. This book is intended for undergraduate students taking courses in economic geography and retailing in departments of geography, business studies, planning, etc.
Download or read book Why Place Matters written by Wilfred M. McClay and published by Encounter Books. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary American society, with its emphasis on mobility and economic progress, all too often loses sight of the importance of a sense of “place” and community. Appreciating place is essential for building the strong local communities that cultivate civic engagement, public leadership, and many of the other goods that contribute to a flourishing human life. Do we, in losing our places, lose the crucial basis for healthy and resilient individual identity, and for the cultivation of public virtues? For one can’t be a citizen without being a citizen of some place in particular; one isn’t a citizen of a motel. And if these dangers are real and present ones, are there ways that intelligent public policy can begin to address them constructively, by means of reasonable and democratic innovations that are likely to attract wide public support? Why Place Matters takes these concerns seriously, and its contributors seek to discover how, given the American people as they are, and American economic and social life as it now exists—and not as those things can be imagined to be in some utopian scheme—we can find means of fostering a richer and more sustaining way of life. The book is an anthology of essays exploring the contemporary problems of place and placelessness in American society. The book includes contributions from distinguished scholars and writers such as poet Dana Gioia (former chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts), geographer Yi-Fu Tuan, urbanist Witold Rybczynski, architect Philip Bess, essayists Christine Rosen and Ari Schulman, philosopher Roger Scruton, transportation planner Gary Toth, and historians Russell Jacoby and Joseph Amato.
