Review of the Times Atlas of the World Concise Edition - Rated
For those who cannot afford the money or the space for the Times Atlas of the World Comprehensive Edition, then the Concise Edition is the next Times Atlas down in order of size and price. At this price and size, it will compete with the Philip's Atlas of the World. Unlike the Philips which uses many of the same maps in its different atlases, Times have a completely different set of maps from their larger work.
Europe is well mapped in the Times Concise, but much of the rest of the world is poor. For example, whereas Europe has 5.7 square metres, Asia only has only 2.44 square metres. By comparison, the Times Comprehensive has 8.74 square metres of mapping for Europe and 6.72 square metres for Asia.
A good atlas to complement the Times Concise Atlas would be the AA World Atlas (see seperate review). As this atlas maps the whole world at the same scale, it devotes only 1.79 square metres to Europe, but 4.86 square metres to Asia.
There is one area where the Concise Atlas is better than the Comprehensive, and that is in the inclusion of a good range of town plans.

Brilliant Atlas - Rated
I bought the Atlas because it interested me but when I got it home and looked though it, I found out that it was fantastic, full of detail. Well worth every penny.
Brilliant - Rated
This Atlas is truly fantastic. It contains very detailed maps, all of the pages are up to date, detailed stats including future climate in the (2080s) and the population graphs are all up to date. It also includes detailed maps of cities and a very, very detailed index. For me It's all I ever wanted.
