ATLAS OF THE REAL WORLD

ATLAS OF THE REAL WORLD

The Atlas of the Real World combines sophisticated software with comprehensive analysis of every aspect of life to represent the world as it really is.

366 digitally modified maps – known as cartograms – depict the areas and countries of the world not by their physical size, but by their demographic importance on a vast range of subjects ranging from population, health, wealth and occupation to how many toys we import and who’s eating their vegetables.

Open this book at almost any page and you will learn something you never knew about the world – for example, in an analysis of water resources, the rainforests of South America, with 30 per cent of the world´s fresh water, make the continent balloon whereas Kuwait – dependent on desalinated sea water – completely disappears from the map.

The reader can also glean historical, current and future trends in areas such as population, biodiversity and trade. Each map is accompanied by graphs, charts, tables and a full text commentary providing an extra level of understanding.
