HOW TO LIE WITH MAPS
Paperback
Connect with a representative to create a custom curriculum for your district.
Written with brevity, range, and humor, this book reveals 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 introduction and spread of digital maps and mapping software, however, have added new wrinkles to the ever-evolving landscape of modern mapmaking, and author Mark Monmonier examines the myriad ways that technology offers new opportunities for cartographic mischief, deception, and propaganda.
