Specially designed for the World Bank to show detailed information on a small scale, these atlases provide an essential introduction and quick reference to today's most urgent development challenges.
The miniAtlases provide colorful and easy-to-read world maps, tables, and graphs that highlight key social, economic, and environmental data for 208 countries and territories. Based on the World Bank's authoritative compilation of development data, and including topics from literacy to urbanization, these are at-a-glance guides to the most pressing development issues.
The latest volume in the series, The miniAtlas of Human Security, provides a wealth of information on armed conflicts since 1946. It maps political violence, the links between poverty and conflict, assaults on human rights – including the use of child soldiers – and the causes of war and peace.
