Geography Today provides a thoughtful and thorough introduction to the study of geography—from maps and technology to the study of different cultures, political systems, and economies, and an investigation of plate tectonics and climate systems. Geography Today: An Encyclopedia of Concepts, Issues, and Technology approaches the study of geography by concept, in contrast to most other works, which are organized by world region. Geography curriculums have been moving away from teaching the topic on a regional basis and toward teaching it through broader concepts. This is modeled by the National Geography Standards, the National Council for Geographic Education's Roadmap for 21st Century Geography Education, Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills Resource System, and ABC-CLIO's own geography advisory board, comprised of high school geography teachers from across the United States. By introducing geography concepts, Geography Today sets the foundation for readers to understand why certain geographies may be the way they are. It further helps high school geography students to apply concepts to different contexts with 101 geography terms, themes, and concepts for quick-reference research and study.

Concepts embody our knowledge of the kinds of things there are in the world. Tying our past experiences to our present interactions with the environment, they enable us to recognize and understand new objects and events. Concepts are also relevant to understanding domains such as social situations, personality types, and even artistic styles. Yet like other phenomenologically simple cognitive processes such as walking or understanding speech, concept formation and use are maddeningly complex. Research since the 1970s and the decline of the "classical view" of concepts have greatly illuminated the psychology of concepts. But persistent theoretical disputes have sometimes obscured this progress. The Big Book of Concepts goes beyond those disputes to reveal the advances that have been made, focusing on the major empirical discoveries. By reviewing and evaluating research on diverse topics such as category learning, word meaning, conceptual development in infants and children, and the basic level of categorization, the book develops a much broader range of criteria than is usual for evaluating theories of concepts.

My name is William Brannan. I was born in November of 1955 to a poor couple. My father was alcoholic and my parents divorced while I was only three or four. I did not remember my dad at that time and though I wanted a dad, I was out-going and friendly until we started moving so often I fell behind in school. I began to feel insecure and unlovable. Though I was highly intelligent and did very well on all aptitude scores, I believed myself to be inferior and refused to apply myself. I had a hole in my sole and eventually sought to fill it by many unsavory means. It would be many years before that hole would be filled by the living true creator God. Jesus saved me from death and eternal damnation. After my salvation I was given a desire to preach the Gospel but all doors to that ministry would prove to be closed, locked, and nailed shut. In February or 2011 I accidently founded For His Praise, www.forhispraise.com, a web-log to the honor and praise of Him who saves. While writing for this blog, a flame of passion for writing was kindled in my soul. As the positive comments poured in, I was encouraged to take my writing a step further. Hence this first book of the series Biblical Concepts for Todays Concerns was conceived. In this series from the quill of a layman you will learn much more of this writer; who I was, who I am, and who I am becoming. You may also want to visit www.quillofalayman.com for more to come.
