A social geographic atlas of Georgia that employs novel twin regionalization schemes as the basis for map compilation and analysis is reviewed by one of Russia's foremost geographers. Map content in different sections (on main demographic characteristics; public health and social security; well-being; culture and education; employment; and crime) is described in considerable detail.
