This , the Millennium Edition of The Times Comprehensive Atlas of the World is the first entirely new edition of the atlas since the five volume Mid-Century Edition. In the fifty years since that edition was published, the art and science of cartography have been revolutionized - mapping created on hand etched copper plates has been replaced by mapping computer generated from world and regional databases. The index-gazetteer to over 200,000 geographical features illustrates the unique scope of the atlas, the gazetteer is fully cross-referenced with alternative and former names and is supported by a glossary of the geographical terms used in the atlas.
