Description
The detailed physical and political maps in "Philip's Atlas of the World" have been fully revised and updated. Praised by the "Daily Mail" as 'clearer than "The Times"', the unique combination of relief colouring and hill-shading gives an exceptional portrayal of landforms. Latest updates to the maps include newly redrawn maps of the USA and Canada; new maps of Torres Strait and Panama Canal; new international airports in Congo, Cape Verde Islands, Philippines, South Korea and India; new high-speed rail lines in China; the new rail link joining North Korea and South Korea, and the new Lotschberg rail tunnel in Switzerland; plus new national parks in Norway, Turkey, South Africa, Uganda and Costa Rica.This new edition features the informative 'World Geography' section, packed with maps, diagrams and text explaining key world themes such as climate change, geology, trade, agriculture, industry and population.
