National Geographic's flagship Atlas of the World, now in its 11th edition,
provides authoritative maps of every country, ocean, and region of the world,
as well as thematic maps and accompanying graphics showing important
population, environmental, and economic patterns. Organized by continent and
reflecting today's political boundaries and identities, this authoritative atlas is
an indispensable reference for schools and libraries, as well as the latest
resource for home browsing and study. A thematically organized opening
section uses current data to visualize urgent concerns, such as Earth's last wild
places, changing freshwater availability, human migration and refugee
movement, and human rights conditions globally. The back of the book
contains basic facts and flags of every country, as well as a comprehensive
index cross-referencing more than 150,000 place names.
