Description
State-of-the-art cartographic technology plus award-winning design and content make this affordable, compact yet comprehensive atlas the ultimate resource for your students.

The last decade has seen an explosion of innovative and sophisticated digital mapping technologies—and National Geographic has been at the forefront of developing these powerful new tools to create the finest, most functional and informative atlases available anywhere.

Wiley is proud to offer the College Atlas of the World to your students through our exclusive partnership with National Geographic.  This powerful resource can purchased individually or at a significant discount when packaged with any Wiley textbook.

After a fascinating explanation of the latest technology, the atlas examines our world as a whole, presenting 25 global themes, from tectonics, the biosphere, and energy sources to population, health, literacy, and more, along with such timely topics as environmental stress and flash points for conflict and terror. Next, in a beautiful two-page spread, the atlas introduces each continent using a remotely sensed image of the whole region followed by an exploration of each continent, assessing the global economic impact of each. The oceans and the polar regions follow providing complete, consistent coverage. Finally, comprehensive appendices present world political information, statistics, and geographic comparisons organized for quick and easy reference.
