An atlas of world affairs - Andrew Boyd

Revised and in print since 1957, An Atlas of World Affairs has proved a valued guide to the people, factions and events that have shaped the modern world from the second world war to the present day.
The world map has changed dramatically since the publication of the ninth edition of An Atlas of World Affairs. This tenth edition has been thoroughly revised and updated, placing international issues and conflicts in their most recent geographical contexts through the integration of a hundred maps. Material on new issues includes the break up of the Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia, the expansion of the European Union, the reshaping of South Africa and the pressing environmental concerns faced by many of the new sovereign states.
