The third edition of this highly successful atlas has been fully updated to provide a truly comprehensive, one-of-a-kind resource. The ten expanded sections feature a total of 140 maps, all of which have been revised to give the most accurate picture of the world language situation, and redesigned for greater ease of use.
With an emphasis on the contemporary world linguistic situation, the Atlas of World Languages features:
* new information on population density, immigrant language use, and contemporary linguistic practices as found in global business activity, diplomatic work and internet language use
* over 25 brand new maps, plus a selection of pie charts indicating language diversity in key cities around the world
* an entirely new Meso-American section featuring 12 maps giving both historical and contemporary language information
Developed by the leading experts from around the world, this new edition of the Atlas is undoubtedly an important and unique work in its field.
