Invisible lines : boundaries and belts that define the world / Maxim Samson.

Samson, Maxim, (author.).

Summary:

Our world has innumerable boundaries. They range from the obvious - an ocean, or a mountain range - to subtle differences in language or climate. Yet they shape the way we engage with the world. Geographer Maxim Samson examines invisible lines, exploring the ways in which we divide this world and how they allow us to define "insiders" and "outsiders," to identify places where particular attention and resources are especially urgent, to distinguish between two sides, two groups, two futures. The existence - or perceived existence - of dividing lines has manifold implications for people, wildlife, and places.
