The book was published in 1983 and this is how it is described: This is a new and completely revised edition of this standard introduction to the geography of the European Economic Community. It provides students with a clear and up to date portrait of the human geography of the Community treated as a unit, covering population, industry, agriculture, energy resources, transport, international trade and regional development. The aim of the book is the examination of the functioning of the Community as a whole so as to set the patterns of geographic activity of each member state within the overall EEC context. The political and economic implications of the Community are fully explored and the book concludes with a survey of changing Community attitudes and policies since the 1950s and a thought-provoking essay on the possible future shape of a United Europe. For this new edition, the book has been completely reset and redesigned in a new larger format. All the maps have been redrawn and updated, the latest statistics are included and two new chapters on population and changing policies have been added to enhance the book's usefulness.
