How has the world changed over time? And what changes can we predict for our future?

The impact of our rapidly changing world to people, cultures, places, and the environment is at the core of the geographic discipline. Those that came before us—the likes of Shackleton, Hillary, Belland many more, not only traced and discovered parts unknown, but they did not so much with the promise of success, but the incredible probability of failure.

From the role of women to polar exploration, this look book demonstrates the interdisciplinary scope of geographical research and provides a window into the foremost geographers and expeditions of our time.
