Review: Fantastic book for anyone interested in learning about into geopolitics and global politics - I bought this book for further my knowledge of geography and politics for my A-level studies and found myself not being able to put it down. Tim Marshall explains the basics of international relations and its relation to geography in an easy to read manner. Marshall explains various countries' problems with geography. He starts with Russia and explains why Putin chose to annex Crimea by explaining Russia's geography and history; he talks about the rise of the BRICS and the next superpowers, and how developing countries are gaining a foothold on the world stage. The book is split into chapters each talking about an area of the world and is interspersed with maps, although the book's subtitle is a bit misleading as the maps are more complimentary than instrumental in the book's explanation of geopolitics. For an introduction to geopolitics, this is a great book. If you are studying Politics and/or Geography at A-level, or simply want an introduction to these concepts, this book is a great starting point. It provides many examples and case studies for A-level that come in very useful. It is a bit short, although for some that may be a virtue if you are looking for a light read. Review: Good experience - Delivered as expected. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 197,437 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 192 in Social Science Human Geography 294 in Higher Education on Geography 339 in Earth Sciences & Geography References | | Book 1 of 5 | Politics of Place | | Customer reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (6,176) | | Dimensions | 15.6 x 2.7 x 23.4 cm | | Edition | First Edition | | ISBN-10 | 1783961414 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1783961412 | | Item weight | 1.05 kg | | Language | English | | Print length | 256 pages | | Publication date | 9 July 2015 | | Publisher | Elliott & Thompson | ## Images ![Prisoners of Geography: Ten Maps That Tell You Everything You Need to Know About Global Politics - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81lsccEZzhL.jpg) ![Prisoners of Geography: Ten Maps That Tell You Everything You Need to Know About Global Politics - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71HFiBjJXEL.jpg) ![Prisoners of Geography: Ten Maps That Tell You Everything You Need to Know About Global Politics - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71h9ZtoKEzL.jpg) ![Prisoners of Geography: Ten Maps That Tell You Everything You Need to Know About Global Politics - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71568Ta4OdL.jpg) ![Prisoners of Geography: Ten Maps That Tell You Everything You Need to Know About Global Politics - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61e4sSLgxWL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic book for anyone interested in learning about into geopolitics and global politics *by T***O on 5 January 2019* I bought this book for further my knowledge of geography and politics for my A-level studies and found myself not being able to put it down.

The reason I bought it is because of my love of maps, but this book only has simple maps, with some extra information on them regarding the written content of the chapter they belong to. I was a little disappointed about this, however the written content of this book definatly made it a good buy! I would highly recommend this book. ## Frequently Bought Together - Prisoners of Geography: Ten Maps That Tell You Everything You Need to Know About Global Politics - The Power of Geography: Ten Maps That Reveal the Future of Our World - The Much-Anticipated Sequel to the Global Bestseller Prisoners of Geography - The Future of Geography: How Power and Politics in Space Will Change Our World – THE NO.1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER* (Tim Marshall on Geopolitics) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/52225463-prisoners-of-geography-ten-maps-that-tell-you-everything-you](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/52225463-prisoners-of-geography-ten-maps-that-tell-you-everything-you) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
