Though smaller than the full-size atlas, this volume (it's still oversize at 10.25x13.5") provides readable maps of the world, with a full index of towns and cities. A fully revised, 47-page introductory section presents essays summarizing current geographical and political issues, with topics that include the universe, the solar system, the Earth's atmosphere, forces of nature, climate and weather, world economics, trade and commerce, and energy and minerals. Tables of statistics are included on countries, cities, climate, and physical dimensions of geographic features. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
