The next section covers World Themes, including maps on geology, volcanoes and earthquakes; temperature and ocean currents; climate (plus statistics); natural vegetation; environmental concerns; agriculture; energy and minerals; travel and tourism; population; standards of living; and international organizations. The core atlas section is made up of 74 pages of detailed World topographical maps, incorporating continental thematic maps on topics such as climate, population and economics. Completing the atlas is a series of informative World Study Maps, concentrating on special study topics in the British Isles, Switzerland, the Middle East (water and oil), China, Japan, Nigeria, Canada, the USA, the Caribbean, Brazil, Tokyo, Cairo, New York City and Mexico City, plus world social and economic statistics. The index to the World topographical maps show letter-figure grid references as well as latitude and longitude co-ordinates.

The atlas is divided into sections for ease of use, with each page colour-coded for rapid reference.
