Cover title: Map of the world distribution of arid regions : explanatory note.
"The base map, at a scale of 1:25,000,000, has been obtained by photographical reduction of the 1:5,000,000 scale map of the world of the American Geographical Society of New York, and by a contraction of ocean areas. For the Americas, the bipolar oblique conformal projection has been used; elsewhere, the Miller stereographic projection, modified in three conformal zones and adopted for the FAO/Unesco Soil map of the world in 16 sheets, has been utilized."
