The Scientist's Bookshelf: Pergamon World Atlas

This review describes the 1968 Pergamon World Atlas, an English edition of the Polish Atlas Swiata prepared by the Polish Army Topographical Service, with added maps of Canada and the United Kingdom. The reviewer particularly praises its large-scale, detailed maps of eastern Europe and the Soviet Union, extensive thematic coverage, nearly 150,000 index and glossary entries, printing quality, and removable-sheet binding, judging its price attractive for the scale of the undertaking.
