Dan Smith is Secretary-General of International Alert and former Director of the International Peace Research Institute, Oslo. He is author of The State of the World Atlas and The Atlas of War and Peace.
Praise for Dan Smith's other atlases:
"The State of the World Atlas is something else--an occasion of wit and an act of subversion. These are the bad dreams of the modern world, given color and shape and submitted to a grid that can be grasped instantaneously."--New York Times "A compact, versatile and politically imaginative work of reference."--New Statesman"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
