About this product

Product Information

Positioned at the top of Oxford's atlas range, the Deluxe Edition incorporates a host of large-scale North American maps plus a substantial number of completely new topographical maps of Asia and the Pacific where international interest is increasingly focused. The New York Times Book Review called the Atlas of the World a "veritable encyclopedia of geographic and demographic information," but this new volume will do even better. Building on the strength and integrity of its smaller predecessor, the Deluxe Edition adds 33 more city maps (for a total of 100) and 102 pages of geopolitical maps (making 278 in all), to remain at the forefront of essential geographic resources. Oxford's distinctive cartographic style, combining layer-colored contours with hill shading gives an exceptionally vivid depiction of landforms and the expanded index includes geographical features, historical placenames, as well as full latitude and longitude coordinates. As always, the atlas has been fully updated to reflect the changing world around us and the opening Introduction to World Geography--designed in a fresh manner and beautifully illustrated--adds a quick reference tool to a book already teeming with useful information. Refined name forms, extra detail in maps of the oceans, more vital statistics and dozens of other improvements make this the most reliable atlas on the market. Published in a protective slip-case that is more compact than the leading competition, the Deluxe Edition makes reference easier and storage more convenient. The full-page satellite images that have generated such excitement in the past are still present, as is the popular Regions in the News feature. Plus, this volume offers expanded coverage of Mexico, Scandinavia, Israel, Lebanon, Jordan, Central Asia, Korea, Taiwan, Ethiopia, Australia and New Zealand. Plus six maps of the ocean floor mean that not one inch of the Earth's crust is overlooked. Maps of the moon aren't forgotten either and form another component in this astounding new resource. Providing the finest global coverage available, the Deluxe Edition raises the bar by which all other world atlases will be measured. Atlases come with free six-month access to Oxford Reference Online (a $119 value).

"Oxford University Press has enlarged its excellent Atlas of the World. The most-recent edition includes 278 geopolitical maps of the world plus 100 maps of major cities. The larger maps are so detailed that the index includes about 110,000 entries. Always interesting for us Earthbound typesare the full-color satellite images of major areas, but this edition includes maps of the ocean floor and the surface of the moon."--The Sunday St. Petersburg Times, "A substantial work.... This comprehensive, large-format work will be a welcome addition in most libraries."--Choice, "Satellite photos, quality-of-life charts, the world's oceans and gridsfor 100 of the world's major cities -- oh, did I forget to mention the maps ofthe moon? -- all slide neatly into the sturdy, hardcover slipcase."--The SundayChicago Tribune, "This is just delicious. I don't know why I would ever need a map of the moon, but now I've got one. It's got city maps, geopolitical ones, topographical ones.... I think I can actually see my apartment on page 113."--J. P. Sarni, "An even more sweeping world view is handsomely (if heavily) packaged in the Deluxe Edition of Oxford's Atlas of the World. Here again, there is real utility: the world changes constantly, and this volume offers more than mere maps (although the maps are beautifully clear).... This atlas wisely varies the scales of different maps to correspond with varying population density and other considerations."--The New York Times"Try it, as I did. Lug that 10-pound beautiful volume to bed, prop it up on your lap, and leaf through its 561 pages. If you are at all interested in the world and how it is changing - and being changed - you'll be as fascinated with this large book as I was....Exceptionally current"--The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel"Satellite photos, quality-of-life charts, the world's oceans and grids for 100 of the world's major cities -- oh, did I forget to mention the maps of the moon? -- all slide neatly into the sturdy, hardcover slipcase."--The Sunday Chicago Tribune, "Atlas of the World: Deluxe Edition is a huge undertaking (560 pages) thatmust make Santa's chiropractor wince."--Indianapolis Star, "Clearly, though, what distinguishes the deluxe Oxford Atlas of the Worldis immediately apparent: stnning illustrations, from dazzling color satellitephotos of the earth to fascinating, detailed city grids.... The editors presentfacts intelligently and beautifully. The Oxford Atlas of the World is clearly awonderful book to get lost in."--Education Update, "This is a marvelous book and worth its hefty price. The 278 maps are fabulous in and of themselves, but the index goes a step further by giving the latitude and longitude for each of the 110,000 entries. Most stunning, perhaps, are the photos from space of more than a dozen cities."--TheSunday Oregonian, "Such tidbits of information were enough to keep me enthralled one recentevening with the new deluxe edition of the Oxford Atlas of the World. Try it, asI did. Lug that 10-pound beautiful volume to bed, prop it up on your lap, andleaf through its 561 pages. If you are at all interested in the world and how itis changing - and being changed - you'll be as fascinated with this large bookas I was....exceptionally current"--The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, "It's often hard to distinguish among all the existing atlases on themarket, but if your collection will benefit from an all-inclusive atlas,consider this one. The price will buy you 278 full-page, full-color maps (morethan any other atlas offers), full-page satellite images, a gigantic index ofwell over 100,000 entries, a protective slipcase, and a free six-monthsubscription to Oxford Reference Online."--Library Journal, "An even more sweeping world view is handsomely (if heavily) packaged in the Deluxe Edition of Oxford's Atlas of the World. Here again, there is real utility: the world changes constantly, and this volume offers more than mere maps (although its maps are beautifully clear). There isinformation about climate, vegetation, globalization, standards of living and so on, as well as the expected odd superlatives: here is the place to affirm that the 18,510-foot Elbrus, in Russia, is the highest mountain in Europe. This atlas wisely varies the scales of different maps to correspondwith varying population density and other considerations."--The New York Times, "Clearly, though, what distinguishes the deluxe Oxford Atlas of the World is immediately apparent: stunning illustrations, from dazzling color satellite photos of the earth to fascinating, detailed city grids.... The editors present facts intelligently and beautifully. The Oxford Atlas of theWorld is clearly a wonderful book to get lost in."--Education Update, "An even more sweeping world view is handsomely (if heavily) packaged in the Deluxe Edition of Oxford's Atlas of the World.

The 2005 edition...is as current as these things get."--The SundayHouston Chronicle, "A slip-cased volume of exhaustive maps of every corner of the world."--The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel
