One fourth of the world&#8217;s sovereign states consist of islands or archipelagos. The combined land area and exclusive economic zone of the world\u2019s islands takes up over one sixth of the Earth\u2019s surface. Islands have pioneered the emergence of such disciplines as biogeography and anthropology; they are typical \u2018hot spots\u2019 for both biological diversity and international political tension. Islands offer distinct identities and spaces in an increasingly homogenous and placeless world.&nbsp;<br \/><em>A&nbsp;World of Islands<\/em> provides a global, research-based, comprehensive and pluri-disciplinary overview of the study of islands. The expertise and insights of 42 scholars and contributors offer a unique collection of theoretical principles, ideas, observations and policy proposals from, and for, the study of islands and island life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>POTENTIAL READERSHIP<\/strong><br \/>This book is an Island Studies Reader.
