Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Travel has never been more popular. Yet no matter how many footloose gap-year students stream to the corners of the globe, armchair travel probably remains almost as popular. Dorling Kindersley's 3D World Atlas is a new CD-ROM package firmly in the armchair bracket, giving in-depth coverage of every country in the world--from maps, through demographic statistics to information on geographical phenomena. Why move from the sofa when you can (virtually) experience the world in your living room?
3D World Atlas includes the range of features you would expect from a printed atlas and more. The general world maps are set to an optimal scale, allowing different levels of focus, and there are also the physical maps to view. However, the most striking aspect of this package is its unusual features, particularly those that come from space.
The two satellite image-projections of the earth are revealing. First comes the ordinary view of the earth's physical features from the heavens--yes, you really can pick out the Great Wall of China--and then an image of the earth by night, showing all the lights around the world: it's a sparkly and revealing picture of the spread of economic development across the planet. Add to this brilliant photography of deserts, mountains and jungles in the bio-climate zones and the package transcends the limitations of traditional atlases. --Toby Green

You would have thought that with entire encylopaedia being fitted onto a couple of CDs these days, that a product such as this would contain a true wealth of detail both visual and textual. Unfortunately, despite the misleading list of "features" in the product info, 3D World Atlas is disappointingly simple and suffers from a very poor user interface that makes searches/browsing unwieldy. The maps are basic at best and the whole "3D" thing has an unfortunate 1980s video game appearance. For those expecting the the graphic detail of a hardcover world atlas on a disc, 3D falls some way short.
