This detailed cartographic reference provides visual data on important social, political and economic aspects of the 126 countries which constitute the Third World. The atlas is divided into two halves. The first compares Third World countries both internationally and regionally, and the second examines each individual country. Both sections have a full introduction explaining the different statistics and data employed and how best to interpret the information provided. Coverage spans virtually every topic relating to life in Third World nations, including: location, weather, population, ethnic composition, constitution, government, foreign aid, industry, banking and finance, mineral resources, agriculture, food production, health, social welfare, education, law and order, human rights and religion.
