The Middle East is a region of critical importance in world affairs, both politically and economically

The Middle East is a region of critical importance in world affairs, both politically and economically. In this comprehensive study, first published in 1950, Professor Fisher examines all the principal elements – physical and human – that influence environment, development and ways of life in the region. An analysis of the physical basis of the region is followed by detailed treatment of the complex human and social aspects; a concluding section brings together, on a regional basis, the elements discussed in the first two parts.

Regional geography is a major branch of geography. It focuses on the interaction of different cultural and natural geofactors in a specific land or landscape, while its counterpart, systematic geography, concentrates on a specific geofactor at the global level. Attention is paid to unique characteristics of a particular region such as natural elements, human elements, and regionalization which covers the techniques of delineating space into regions.

Unfortunately, Fisher's classic text, The Middle East: A Physical, Social and Regional Geography, virtually ignores political geography. Beaumont, Blake, and Wagstaff have only one chapter on the political map in The Middle East: A Geographical Study

Unfortunately, Fisher's classic text, The Middle East: A Physical, Social and Regional Geography, virtually ignores political geography. Beaumont, Blake, and Wagstaff have only one chapter on the political map in The Middle East: A Geographical Study. Possibly no other major world region has attracted so little attention from political geographers. This lacuna seems all the more surprising in view of the region's global importance and the numerous instances in which political conflicts within it have geographic origins or dimensions.
