The American State of California has almost as many residents as all of Canada. I wonder how many of them are ex-pat Canucks? Regardless, this double-sided map shows the attractions of the state in amazing detail. Side 1 concentrates on the northern half, with a large inset map of San Francisco. A fairly large portion of Nevada shows as well, but with less detail.

Side 2 continues south to the Mexican border and east to Arizona, with a detailed inset map of central Los Angeles included. By the shape of California, all of southern Nevada is included as well, including the all-important wasteland of Las Vegas. All motorways are clearly shown, including those in greater Los Angeles. All state highways are also shown, as well as most secondary connecting roads. Parks, points of interest, beaches, redwood forests, and distances between major communities are also shown. The state is blessed with interesting offshore islands, such as Catalina, San Clemente, and the Channel Islands, all of which are included.

ITM har kart over hele verden og de spesialiserer seg på land litt utenfor allfarvei. Beliggenheten til landets nasjonalparker, historiske monumenter, de viktigste veiene o.L. Finner du inkludert i kartene. Samtlige landkart har ofte et bykart over hovedstaden.

Fra ITM: Geneva is an ancient Swiss town close to the French border, nestled along the edge of Lake Leman, and is bisected by the Rhone River. The old town is on the left, or lower, bank and is loaded with shops and restaurants. The ‘new’ town is on the right, or upper, bank and contains the downtown shopping area and the main railway station. The United Nations complex, the Palais des Nations, is a bit of a walk to reach, so fortunately there is a tram that goes right to the gates. The airport is shown at the top of the page. The 2nd side is a new map for us, covering the western half of Switzerland as far as Basle and Luzern, concentrating on the rail network as well as the roads. For example, it shows the rail line to Zermatt, at the base of the Matterhorn.

This version represents a thorough updating of this important Argentinean city. The subway lines are now clearly shown and the main shopping/pedestrian ways more clearly delineated. All three railway stations are shown, although rail services have largely been curtailed except for suburban usage. The cruise ship terminal has been added and the ferry crossing to Uruguay moved. La Recoleta cemetery has had pathways noted. The airport shown is only used for local flights, as the main international airport is quite far away from the city.

It is noted on the second side of the map, which covers all of northeastern Argentina, most of Uruguay, and small portions of Brazil and Paraguay. No visit to Argentina would be complete without including Iguazu Falls or historic Cordoba, which are on this map. The regional map goes as far south as Puerto Madryn and includes such popular destinations as Bahia Blanca and Mar del Plata. Insets of Cordoba and Rosario are included.

Jordkloden med sine fjell, sletter og havbassenger har alltid vært under endring, drevet av kontinentbevegelser, vulkaner og istider. Men i dag er det menneskets aktiviteter som bidrar mest til endringene på jordoverflaten. Spor i stein gir et sveip over jordklodens dannelse, oppbygging og de geologiske prosessene. Mennesket har lært å utnytte de geologiske ressursene til råvarer, matproduksjon og energi. I utgangspunktet til glede for menneskeheten, men etter hvert også til stor skade for vårt bomiljø. Hvor mye natur må vi ofre for å gi flest mulig et verdig liv? Denne boka legger fram de faglige premissene som er en forutsetning for å kunne treffe kloke beslutninger om vår og våre barns fremtid.
