Here's an atlas that really maps out everything a young scholar needs to earn an A+ in geography! Especially created for secondary school students, it's divided into easy-to-use sections, all with color-coded pages. Political maps show national boundaries at a glance, and mark capital cities. Physical maps have layer-coloring and hill-shading that give landscape information, including mountains, rivers, and lakes, we well as towns, roads, and railways. Climate maps for each continent tell the average temperatures for January and July, indicating the prevailing winds and cold and warm ocean currents. Thematic maps compare nation with nation on key social and economic topics such as population, health, standard of living, food consumption, and trade. World study maps provide detailed information on important geographical and environmental themes. Economic maps chart the different types of land use in each continent. Whether pupils want to know about energy and water resources in the Middle East or deforestation in Brazil, they'll find the information quickly!

PHILIP\'S

A magnificent celebration of 175 years of the Royal Geographical Society, from the early expeditions of Livingstone and Stanley in Africa, to the postwar explorations atop Mount Everest. This superb book assembles a stunning visual record - including maps, original documents and artifacts, as well as more than 400 photographs (the majority in full colour) - that the Royal Geographical Society and those it has sponsored have gathered throughout its history.* The Royal Geographical Society was founded in 1830 and has evolved into the largest geographical society in Europe, and one of the largest in the world. It plays a vital role in all aspects of geography, making an important contribution to our understanding of the world on a regional, international and truly global scale.
