Recenzii: Atlas der Republik Österreich

Summary

This text comprises two book reviews. The first reviews a study on the territorial distribution of labor demand, highlighting its analysis of peak work periods and the judicious redistribution of surplus labor at the year's start, offering valuable insights for rational labor force utilization and underscoring the relevance of geographers in such economic research. The second reviews the first three fascicles of the Atlas of the Republic of Austria (1961-1965). Edited under Hans Bobek, the atlas employs a 1:1,000,000 scale across 12 thematic sections and about 125 plates, presenting a synthetic, dynamic geographical portrait of Austria's natural and human environment. It is deemed a fundamental reference work for regional planning and a testament to the country's advanced cartographic and geographic scholarship.
