Yesterday I spent a great half hour looking at various Atlases in Borders. I want to give a friend one for Christmas as she mentioned she doesn't have one. I don't want to spend a fortune but still want to give one of a reasonable quality. I was given a marvellous Atlas for my birthday - it is by New Internationalist and is all in Peters Projection - which is definitely a good thing, the information provided in addition is also excellent.

I decided I quite liked the Philip's Atlases, and as the friend in question likes to travel I am going to go for the Traveller's World Atlas, which includes information that hopefully she will find interesting.

(I am aware that some people will find this post extremely boring, however be glad you didn't get my original post which was enough to push several people over the edge)
