4.0 out of 5 stars Times atlas of the World - but which one to get?, 20 Sep 2008

By	Dr. H. Beentje (Kew, England) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

There is a whole host of books called "Times atlas of the world", and I was terminally confused. Until I did a bit of homework, and came up with the following: (all prices quoted from Amazon, August 2008)

The biggest is called COMPREHENSIVE, costs �75 , is 47x32 cm, has 125 map plates (not pages, as most spread over 2 pages) and a 217-page index.

The next is the CONCISE, costs �37, is 37x27 cm, has 105 plates on 198 map pages, and a 140-page index to 130,000 names. And 32 city maps, which is something the biggest lacks!

The next is the UNIVERSAL, costs � 33, is 32x27 cm, has 170 pages of maps (not plates - probably 90 plates), an index to 50,000 names, and 32 city maps.

The next is the REFERENCE, costs �19, has 104 pages of maps (not plates - probably 60 plates), an index to 45,000 names, and 46 city maps.

The next is DESKTOP, costs � 11, 25x19 cm;
then the COMPACT, costs � 7, 21x15 cm;
then the MINI, costs � 5, 15x11 cm.

Are those names logical, or what? I don't think so - but I hope this little guide helps. I got myself the CONCISE (that is, number two) and am well-pleased. Beautiful clear mapping, and it just fits into the bookcase; the largest one is very beautiful, but will have to live permanently on some large, weight-bearing surface!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic for every day reference, 3 Jun 2009

By	L. J. Roach "ljroach" (Wales) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have just received my new Atlas (in super quick time might I add) and it's a fabulous book if you want something for every day reference. The first section has beautifully printed maps dating from c.1890 to the 1980s, to give you an idea of where boundaries laid and political stances. As well as excellent maps of the present day, it has detailed maps of major cities such as London, New York, Paris etc. so it would even be handy if you were planning a holiday! An excellent buy and suitable for all the family with a easy to read index. Highly recommended!
