 Rating: - Best of the best (and great for class)This book is an excellent resource for students at teachers alike. It has a great balance of different map types and the level of detail is beyond anything I have ever seen in any other atlas. If you're taking Geography or any class about Regions and Nations in the world, this is the book for you. Rating: - Wonderful AtlasI purchased this as a gift. She is a huge fan of maps and searched for a good world atlas. "This book could not be more wonderful" were her words. Simply perfect. Rating: - NGS new College Atlas hits the markHaving used many other atlases in years of teaching geography, this new NGS product has an excellent balance of thematic maps, regional maps, and data. While my other favorite, Goode's, has better thematic maps for teaching human geography, the National Geographic College Atlas excels in its clear and complete explanations of physical geography. de Blij does it again!
