Commercial geography

Investigates the spatial characteristics of trade and transactions in terms of their cause, nature, origin and destination. It leans on the analysis of contracts and transactions. From a simple commercial transaction involving an individual purchasing a product at a store, to the complex network of transactions maintained between a multinational corporation and its suppliers, the scale and scope of commercial geography varies significantly. Trade, in terms of its origins and destinations, has a spatial logic.

Throughout the volume, explanation is closely linked with exemplification by reference to real situations. This book has overall covered all necessary topics.
