How to Lie with Maps (gnv64)

Torrent: How to Lie with Maps (gnv64)
Description:



How to Lie with Maps
By Mark Monmonier
University Of Chicago Press | May 1991 | ISBN-10: 0226534154 | PDF | 183 pages | 7.5 mb


Originally published to wide acclaim, this lively, cleverly illustrated essay on the use and abuse of maps teaches us how to evaluate maps critically and promotes a healthy skepticism about these easy-to-manipulate models of reality. Monmonier shows that, despite their immense value, maps lie. In fact, they must.
To show how maps distort, Monmonier introduces basic principles of mapmaking, gives entertaining examples of the misuse of maps in situations from zoning disputes to census reports, and covers all the typical kinds of distortions from deliberate oversimplifications to the misleading use of color.
