Synopsis

Where do most of the people live in the second most populous nation in the world? What is the difference in the climates of the Lake districts in the Kashmir and Southern province of Tamil Nadu? Is there a difference in the mass communication of each province? Does Darjiling produce all of the tea in India? An Atlas of India is an exhaustive reference work on India and its states. In this volume, each state and union territory has been allotted maps which have been drawn to varying scales depending on the data available and the facts to be presented for each region. They draw out topics such as physical and political geography, populations, transport and tourism, agriculture, industrial and market potential, minerals, economic development, and mass communication. The atlas includes tables and charts which allow the reader to view the information in a linear way as well. The volume concludes with a comprehensive index--including every town, village, and physical feature marked, totalling over 12,000 entries. With striking full-color cartography and a wealth of detailed information, the Atlas is a comprehensive resource that no one who is interested in the land and people of India should be without.
