Journalist Tim Marshall talks about his new book, Power of Geography which examines ten regions that are set to shape global politics and power – claiming if you want to understand what’s happening in the world, look at a map. His previous global bestseller Prisoners of Geography showed how every nation’s choices are limited by mountains, rivers, seas and concrete. Since then, the geography hasn’t changed, but the world has. Find out why the earth’s atmosphere is the world’s next battleground; why the fight for the Pacific is just beginning; and why Europe’s next refugee crisis is critical, and closer than we think.
Originally from Leeds, Tim Marshall was Diplomatic Editor and foreign correspondent for Sky News. After thirty years’ experience in news reporting and presenting, he left full time news journalism to concentrate on writing and analysis
