Description:

This book, for AS/A2 geography students, traces the emergence of China and India as the superpowers of the future, helping students understand the challenges facing both nations as they race to develop in the twenty-first century. It explores the range of environmental, social, cultural and economic factors which have influenced their contrasting pathways to global dominance. These major themes are discussed separately for each country, with concluding exercises to help students think about comparative analysis.

Gill Miller is Programme Leader in the Department of Geography and Development Studies, University of Chester.

Sue Warn is a chief examiner and highly experienced author
