About the Book
A provocative exploration into our current relationship with maps, both old and new, and the way technology allows us to navigate our way around the world based on our current location. We no longer plan a route from A to B, but from ourselves. As every distance is now measured from where we stand, we each become the centre of our individual worlds.
A subjective and personal voyage into the art of map making, relishing in the lines, shapes, and scale of this picturesque language that we have depended on for centuries. A language that never claimed to be objective, but is often (mis)interpreted as such.
“[For]... maps are only human, after all.” - Dava Sobel
