Résumé :
|
Cartographers have known for decades that maps are far from objective representations of the world. This book presents a compelling exploration of a wide range of maps to answer the question of why maps have 'gotten away with it' To answer that question, the authors turn to a category of maps with a particularly strong reputation for objectivity: maps of nature.
