商品描述

This book is the first to give a comprehensive and detailed overview of the complete geography of Slovenia in English. Only very few countries, even considerably larger ones, can boast the landscape diversity found in Slovenia since the Alps, the Pannonian Basin, the Dinaric Alps, and the Mediterranean meet and interweave in this small corner of Central Europe, as do Germanic, Hungarian, Slavic, and Romance cultural influences.

The book provides a systematical overview of physical and human geographical elements of Slovenia from landforms to cultural characteristics. Special attention is given to landscape diversity, to the presentation of Slovene landscape types and regions, to some particularities and interesting facts of Slovenia, and to the position of Slovenia in the World. The book also illustrates some other important geographical phenomena, processes and interactions between nature and society in nowadays Slovenia.

This volume appeals to researchers as well as students in the field of regional geography. It can also serve as a source for complete background information as well as a field guide for Slovenia.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書是第一本以英文全面且詳細地概述斯洛維尼亞完整地理的書籍。即使是一些面積更大的國家,也難以比擬斯洛維尼亞的景觀多樣性,因為阿爾卑斯山、潘諾尼亞盆地、迪納里克山脈和地中海在這個中歐的小角落交匯並交織在一起,德意志、匈牙利、斯拉夫和羅曼文化的影響也在此交融。

本書系統性地概述了斯洛維尼亞的自然和人文地理要素,從地形到文化特徵。特別關注景觀多樣性,展示斯洛維尼亞的景觀類型和地區,以及斯洛維尼亞的一些特點和有趣的事實,並探討斯洛維尼亞在世界中的位置。本書還闡述了當今斯洛維尼亞的一些其他重要地理現象、過程以及自然與社會之間的互動。

這本書對於地區地理領域的研究者和學生都具有吸引力。它也可以作為斯洛維尼亞的完整背景資訊來源以及實地指南。
