| adam_text | Maps are universal forms of communication,
easily understood and appreciated regardless
of culture or language. This truly magisterial
book introduces readers to the widest range
of maps ever considered in one volume: maps
from different time periods and a variety of cul¬
tures; maps made for divergent purposes and
depicting a range of environments; and maps
that embody the famous, the important, the
beautiful, the groundbreaking, or the amus¬
ing. Built around the^mctions of maps
—
the
kinds of things maps do and have done
—
Maps
confirms the vital role of maps throughout his¬
tory in commerce, art, literature, and national
identity.
The book begins by examining the use of maps
for wayfinding, revealing that even maps as
common and widely used as these are the
product of historical circumstances and cul¬
tural differences. The second chapter consid¬
ers maps whose makers employed the small¬
est of scales to envision the broadest of human
stages
—
the world, the heavens, even the act
of creation itself. The next chapter looks at
maps that are, literally, at the opposite end of
the scale from
cosmologica!
and world maps
—
maps that represent specific parts of the world
and provide a close-up view of areas in which
their makers lived, worked, and moved.
Having shown how maps help us get around
and make sense of our greater and lesser
worlds, Maps then turns to the ways in which
certain maps can be linked to particular events
in history, exploring how they have helped
Americans, for instance, to understand their
past, cope with current events, and plan their
national future. The fifth chapter considers
maps that represent data from scientific in-
struments, population censuses, and histori¬
cal records. These maps illustrate, for exam¬
ple, how diseases spread, what the ocean floor
looks like, and how the weather is tracked and
predicted. Next comes a turn to the imaginary,
featuring maps that depict entire fictional
worlds, from Hell to Utopia and from Middle
Earth to the fantasy game World of
Warcraft.
The final chapter traces the origins of map con¬
sumption throughout history and ponders the
impact of cartography on modern society.
A companion volume to the most ambitious
exhibition on the history of maps ever mount¬
ed in North America, Maps will challenge read¬
ers to stretch conventional thought about what
constitutes a map and how many different
ways we can understand graphically the envi¬
ronment in which we live. Collectors, histori¬
ans,
mapmakers
and users, and anyone who
has ever gotten lost in the lines and symbols
of a map will find much to love and learn from
in this book.
