Object-Oriented Cartography

Maps as Things

Beschreibung

Object-Oriented Cartography provides an innovative perspective on the changing nature of maps and cartographic study. Through a renewed reading of contemporary cartography, this book acknowledges the shifted interest from cartographic representation to mapping practice, proposing an alternative consideration of the 'thingness' of maps.
