Encyclopedic World Atlas

Detailed profiles and authoritative, full-color maps of every country in the world fill the completely updated Fourth Edition of the Encyclopedic World Atlas. Containing the same outstanding relief mapping featured in Oxford's other atlases, this atlas is a comprehensive, easy-to-use, and invaluable resource for project work, research, or as a general home or library reference.
Each country features its own map, reference tables with abundant statistics on industry, commerce, culture, and demographics, and a fascinating essay describing the country's landscape, culture, history, and economy. In addition, a 32-page "Introduction to World Geography" features brand new satellite images throughout and a wealth of colorful maps, charts, and graphs which provide an integrated look at our world. The convenient country-by-country format, combined with an extensive 25,000-entry index, make this the ideal reference for any family.
