Prisoners of Geography by Tim Marshall reveals the ways in which the physical world shapes political power, national interests, and global conflict. By examining regions such as Russia, China, the Middle East, and Africa, Marshall illustrates how natural features like mountains, rivers, and climate impact decision-making and national strategy. He argues that geography, more than ideology, often dictates political behavior and outcomes. With compelling case studies and clear, engaging analysis, Marshall’s work provides readers with a deeper understanding of why certain countries face specific challenges and how geography continues to shape global politics and relationships in the modern era.
