 Great as a gift or for yourself December 8, 2008
I highly recommend this atlas to anyone interested in geography. It was suggested by my Physical Geography professor and has really come in handy for the course. But it also great for everyday use.
 Shipping October 5, 2008
This is an update to my first review, which reflected my unhappiness with the vendor regarding the length of time in shipping the textbook purchased. Subsequent to the first review, the vendor contacted me and credited the entire amount of the purchase with an apology. While a credit of the shipping charge which was unsolocited would have sufficed, I wanted to make potential buyers aware that this particular vendor went out of his way to address the matter and he would be someone I would use again and would recommend to any potential buyer.
Amazing Purchase October 4, 2008
I purchased this book off Amazon due to its expensive price elsewhere. Amazon offered it for half the price and brand new at that. It was delivered befoe my next class and looked amazing. Trust me this is one great purchase so don't stutter to try it for yourself.
You're going to love this atlas October 3, 2008
Taking a Geography/Anthropology class? Looking for an atlas that 1) won't break the bank, 2) is small and portable enough that its convenient, 3) is easily navigable and well organized, and 4)is comprehensive with very detailed and up to date maps? Then this is it. Covering every region of every continent, including global and regional thematic maps (ex. mineral production, trade of natural resources, etc.), this atlas really offers a lot to its readers (so much so that one of my geography teachers once said that a copy of this atlas should be next to the Bible in hotel rooms). Included in is a exhaustive index with easy to understand references. I've used a lot of atlases in the past (i'm a geography teacher myself) and this is the one I recommend to my students and anyone else interested interested in our world.
