This atlas corrects our misconceptions of the geography of the planet. Based on the revolutionary Peters Projection, each double-page spread shows one sixtieth of the Earth's surface presenting an astronaut's eye view. The use of colour and relief intensifies the green jungles, the brown deserts and the brown mountains and the 246 thematic maps cover subjects such as: global rainfall, birth control, marriage, weather, the status of women, employment and military strength.

Review
'The book changes the world. The Peters Atlas is the greatest single advance in map-making in 400 years. You won't be able to put it down. Truly stimulating...' THE DAILY MAIL 'The projection and atlas seem to grow more popular as Peters' critics shout louder. His is a shocking view of the world for traditional cartographers and he thrives on the controversy...' GEOGRAPHICAL MAGAZINE
