This atlas provides current information on countries, demographics, statistics, and so much more. Many maps, charts and succinct text. A great gift for the world history student or the reader that enjoys "traveling the world" from an armchair! From a researcher's standpoint, very useful in multiple ways. A small price to pay for an excellent item!
