Disappointed
I bought the atlas for maps, not primer in earth science. It is heavy, unwieldy and puts too much emphasis on space photos and relief maps. Rand-McNally did a better job with their Reader's Atlas in 1950. I am disappointed. Too much extraneous matter and too few detailed maps. Why doesn't someone publish a Readers Atlas modeled on the one mentioned above. I don't mean a Road Atlas. just an up-to-date detailed set of geographic maps.
