Description

The tropics and the West: Eden to Empire. The tropics are 23 north of the equator. 27 degrees south-sized 23. It's either pointing to the geographic area of the 27 degree Celsius or to one of the climate zones. But it's written as a new form of territorial concept that exists beyond geographic limits in the modern world. The first was the idea of how tropical, working Western desires were developed. The book wants to ‘ help create a new identity in the process of inventing the tropics from a geographic historical perspective.'. It shows us how Western identity was born in the dense tropical forest. The four spectrums of tropical inventions are classified as ‘ wind, ’ ‘ nature, ’ “art, ’ and ‘ environmental hygiene. ’.
