If you're going to buy just one atlas this fall, make it the 11th edition of the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC ATLAS OF THE WORLD (National Geographic, $215), a 7.8-pound behemoth that's a foot and a half long and a foot wide. Its mammoth size allows you to appreciate the details in its dozens of maps - satellite maps, cultural maps and physical maps, all of them striking. The best one, Life on a Warming Planet, lays out where temperatures are rising (and by how much), where permafrost is melting, what nations emit the most carbon dioxide and which large cities are at high risk. -The New York TImes
