The COLUMBUS Compact Atlas
Handy, practical, and comprehensive. Compact, in every sense! This COLUMBUS world atlas demonstrates how a complete picture of our planet can be presented even in a small format. Modern cartography at scales of 1:5 million and 1:15/17 million, with outstanding readability and balanced color design, presents an up-to-date view of the Earth. The high-quality printing makes the planet’s surface appear almost like a 3D relief. An index containing around 80,000 entries can be accessed via QR code, making it even easier to use than any printed index in tiny type!
But the wealth of information in this atlas offers much, much more: Text and image sections covering the natural and cultural landscapes, politics, economy, and climate and weather conditions of every continent are complemented by numerous color photographs, thematic maps, and elaborate graphics. The chapter “Fascinating Planet” provides an encyclopedic approach that leaves no question unanswered, featuring more than 40 pages on geographical phenomena such as volcanism, earthquakes, climate, and the formation of the Earth and its major landforms. Every section of the Compact Atlas has been thoroughly revised and updated.
An indispensable reference work for the curious, for world travelers, and for anyone who can never get enough of the wonder that is Earth. The COLUMBUS Compact Atlas is definitely bigger on the inside than on the outside!
