The latest edition of the ground-breaking atlas of international current affairs gives extensive coverage of economic, political and social issues, including the role of women, literacy, human rights, aids, smoking and many other issues. The book remains a unique source of information for anyone with an interest in current events. "THE STATE OF THE WORLD ATLAS is something else - an occassion of wit and an act of subversion. These are the bad dreams of the modern world, given color and shape and submitted to a grid that can be grasped instantaneously" THE NEW YORK TIMES "To call this book an atlas is like calling Calvados applejack - it conveys nothing of the richness and flavour of the thing" NEW SCIENTIST
