Southeast Asia: A Region in Transition, first published in 1991, is a contemporary human geography of the ‘market’ economies of the region usually defined by membership of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). Organized thematically, the chapters deal with the environment and development, plural societies, agrarian change and urbanization. This thematic approach provides a comprehensive picture of the ASEAN countries and gives a depth of coverage often lacking in other regional geographies. With a detailed introduction dealing with the physical environment and history of the region, this work will be of great value to students studying the human geography of Southeast Asia, as well as those with a more general interest in the issues and developments affecting the ASEAN region.

Now available as a separate book to Welcome To Being Human (All-In-One Edition).Imagine a story written for adults, but told through 3 separate children's stories. One bedtime story for parents to read to a child. One story for a child learning to read. One story for children to read to parents. This is just what is included in the Children's Edition of Welcome to Being Human - the highly acclaimed book that has gripped adults young and old alike. How many times have you heard, "Life doesn't come with an instruction book?" But what if it did? And what if you wrote that instruction book before arriving on Earth so that one day, in your human form, you would find it and be able to look upon your life with an entirely different perspective? Ever since humans arrived on Earth, they have - for better or worse - bounced around the planet without any sense of direction. It would be almost comical if it wasn't reality. I mean, how many times have you asked a question and heard an answer like, "I don't know why, but that is what it says?" Or even better... "That's just the way it is." After all, the greatest minds on planet Earth have only a small understanding of something much, much greater than can be explained through science, math, and history. This is why Welcome to Being Human will find the rhythm to your heart. For the first time, one book answers the great questions about life that have gone unanswered for so long! It is a story humorously written by you, for you, to help you remember all that's been forgotten... an instruction book to being human. Welcome to being human!
