The Times Atlases have been providing world class cartography since 1895 (when the first Times world Atlas was published). They are widely considered the most prestigious & authoritative of atlas producers & their atlases are used by major international organizations including the UN, the EC, the UK government & the media – BBC, CNN & ABC. Atlases represent the earth with a fine balance of accuracy, style, authority, tradition & vibrancy. Each product not only contains detailed up-to-date physical topographical mapping, but also contains a range of precise & topical geo-political reference maps & a selection of nation based facts & information, giving real context to the atlas images in front of you. As a general rule of thumb, the more expensive the atlas the more detail it will contain: more plates showing various countries and/or regions in greater detail, more places shown on the maps & listed in the index, & more additional information such as thematic plates, charts & graphs.* Please note
- Atlas details vary from title to title. Please see individual descriptions.*
