How to Lie with Maps, Third Edition, Paperback / softback Book

How to Lie with Maps, Third Edition Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

An instant classic when first published in 1991, How to Lie with Maps revealed how the choices mapmakers make--consciously or unconsciously--mean that every map inevitably presents only one of many possible stories about the places it depicts.

The principles Mark Monmonier outlined back then remain true today, despite significant technological changes in the making and use of maps.

The introduction and spread of digital maps and mapping software, however, have added new wrinkles to the ever-evolving landscape of modern mapmaking.

Fully updated for the digital age, this new edition of How to Lie with Maps examines the myriad ways that technology offers new opportunities for cartographic mischief, deception, and propaganda.

While retaining the same brevity, range, and humor as its predecessors, this third edition includes significant updates throughout as well as new chapters on image maps, prohibitive cartography, and online maps.

It also includes an expanded section of color images and an updated list of sources for further reading.
