• Description:
  The idea to write this book arose a few years ago during classes with foreign students. Those young people came to Poland not only to study in the areas of their choice but also to get to know people and the country. At that time, we did not have concise, modern monograph on Polish geography in English devised for people for whom geography is not the main study area. This book is exactly that. We wanted it to fit the tradition of regional geography. It was important for us to deliver as much information about the country as possible in the most accessible way. At the same time, thanks to explanation boxes with basic notions we remind the readers what geography as a science deals with. We entitled the monograph “Potentials of Poland” believing that foreigners will discover in our country opportunities which they had never expected. We strived to present a constantly changing and advancing country. Even though the subtitle includes the phrase “socio-economic geography”, the book includes chapters on physical geography and the political situation in Poland. We believe they are an essential to the whole. We hope that the “Potentials of Poland. Introduction to Socio- Economic Geography of Poland for foreigners” will help students understand what they see around themselves and will encourage others to visit Poland.
