Amazon.co.uk Review The Times atlases have for some time been market leaders, and a short inspection of this volume shows you why. It exudes competence and clarity. Before you even get to the maps, there's a 58-page introductory section with information on everything from the planets to the oceans, including handy one-paragraph factboxes on all the countries in the world. There are special maps of 32 of the world's great cities, satellite images of each continent and an index of 100,000 place names--which means 100,000 chances to answer the "But where is it?" that drives so many people to an atlas. It's the immaculate, clear, detailed mapping, of course, that's the heart of the book--272 pages of it, providing pretty thorough coverage of every part of the world. Unfussy fonts and carefully chosen colour coding make the maps highly legible. -
