Critics Review

As a full course or a series of mini lessons, this book is surely one the reviewer likes having on her shelf and has recommended and will continue to recommend to others. For the expert who is not teaching classes, there are jewels in the book that can simply convey important mapping concepts to build common ground with inquisitive friends, family, or that cross disciplinary colleague who never really thought much more of maps than they are pretty pictures.
