Colourful maps, flags and fascinating insights make this pocket sized atlas an ideal source of information about our ever changing world.

Arranged in two main sections - a world atlas and country factfile - the Pocket A-Z World Atlas provides an invaluable source of accurate, informative and interesting geographical information, all in one compact and affordable volume. The atlas section, arranged by continent, presents over 70 colourful, clearly labelled, easy-to-read regional maps showing all the world's nations, combining digital landscape modelling with the most important roads, railways, rivers, and settlements. Each map is annotated with fascinating 'insight' facts that reveal a wealth of amazing information from around the world.

The second section comprises a comprehensive series of country profiles, arranged alphabetically, covering all the essential facts and figures, including details of geography, climate, society, and economics. This section also contains reference factfile data for every nation, including the national flag, total area, population, languages, religions, and currency.
