This unique book about Mazovia and Mazowieckie Voivodeship presents the complex problems and enormous development potential of the largest and most prosperous voivodeship in Poland, its civilisational achievements and economy, as well as natural and tourist merits. The authors also depict the complicated and colourful history of Mazovia, from the onset of Polish statehood to the present day.

The exceptional qualities of the book include numerous statistical data concerning prominent domains of economic and social life, a presentation of poviats (counties), an extensive discussion of the cultural institutions and historical monuments of Mazovia, a portrait of the local landscape, and an expanded list of addresses, particularly those of the offices if gminas, starostys and the most important institutions at voivodeship level.Product Identifiers
